Essential chili oil for the kitchen

Overview

Needless to say, every kitchen will have a bowl of chili oil on hand. The only difference lies in the spiciness of the chili powder used. If you like me can't eat spicy food, just use chili powder that's not too spicy. The aroma of dried chili peppers soaked in hot oil is irreplaceable. It is delicious in cold dishes, soups, stir-fries, or directly as a dip.
