Recipe
( I enjoy using this mix of 3 different pepper flakes, but you can substitute all with Sichuan Chili Powder)
– Asian Red Pepper Flakes (Coarse) 1/3 cup
– Asian Red Pepper Flakes (Fine) 1/3 cup
– Sichuan Chili Powder 1/4 cup
Spices
– Sesame Seeds ( 1.5 Tbl)
– Fennel Seeds (1/2 tsp)
– Sichuan Peppercorn (1 tsp)
– Star Anise (2 pieces)
– Cloves (2 pieces)
– Oil (2.5 cups)
1. Mix all your Chili Powders into a heat proof bowl, make sure you still have lots of room in the bowl.
2. Heat oil and simmer the spices (everything but sesame seeds) in for 10 minutes on a low heat, be sure you stir often, and watch ingredients to ensure they do not burn.
3. Once the spices are finished, strain the oil out and then continue to heat it up on a high heat, get it hot but not smoking.
4. Pour 1/3 of the hot oil into the chili powder mixture and then mix right away. Using only 1/3 of the oil will prevent chilis from burning. Then put in the sesame seeds.
5. Heat the oil back up to very high temperature, until you can visibly see trails of light smoke. Pour in the rest of the very hot oil into the mixture and continue to mix until foaming subsides.
6. Let this cool down and package into any nicely sealed containers.
Done! The perfect Chili Oil. You can store this in the pantry for up to 3 months and even longer in the fridge.
