Categories     Condiments

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1½-3 cups neutral oil ((350-700 ml))
5 star anise
1 cinnamon stick ((preferably cassia cinnamon))
2 bay leaves
3 tablespoons Sichuan peppercorns
2 black cardamom pods ((optional))
4 nuggets dried sand ginger ((optional - about 1 tablespoon))
2 teaspoons cloves ((optional))
3 cloves garlic ((optional - crushed))
1-2 shallots ((optional - halved))
¾-1 1/4 cup Sichuan chili flakes ((65-110g))
1 - 2 teaspoons salt ((to taste))

Steps:

  • Gather all the aromatics you plan to use. Place oil and selected aromatics into a pot with at least two inches of clearance between the oil and the rim of the pot. If using minimum aromatics, 1 ½ cups of oil should do it. If using all the aromatics, you can add up to 3 cups of oil.
  • Set it over medium heat to start, then progressively lower it to medium low or low heat as the oil comes to temperature. The oil should be at about 225-250° F / 110-120° C and causing small bubbles to slowly rise from the aromatics. If you notice the spices sizzling more vigorously than that or turning dark too quickly, reduce the heat to cool it down. If you are not achieving small bubbles, slowly increase the heat. Hovering around 200-225° F is the safest way to prevent burning. Infuse the aromatics this way for a minimum of 30 minutes, or up to 1 hour for best results.
  • While the oil is infusing, prepare your Sichuan chili flakes by placing them in a heatproof bowl. If you used 1½ cups of oil, ¾ cup of chili flakes is best. For 3 cups of oil, use 1¼ cups of chili flakes. You can experiment within this range (if you like more oil and fewer flakes, for instance).
  • Generally, the oil should be between 225-250° F (110-120° C) when pouring over the chili flakes. If you like a darker color, opt for 250-275° F/135° C. If your chili flakes are already super roasted, you may want to be closer to 225° F/110° C. When in doubt, test the oil on a small bowl of chili flakes before you do the rest. Carefully pour the hot oil through a strainer onto the chili flakes. Stir to evenly distribute the heat of the oil. You'll know you've gotten it right when you smell a "popcorn"-like smell that is not at all burnt-smelling.
  • Stir in the salt, and allow the chili oil to cool. Store in airtight containers in the refrigerator. Always use a clean utensil when handling to prevent spoilage. It can last for up to 6 months if handled in this way.

  • The Chilies. First, you'll need a ton of chilies and Sichuan peppercorns. For the former, just about any kind (and level of heat) will do; just make sure they're roughly ground and you have a lot—at least half a pound.
  • The Oil. This is the most important step: Infusing the oil. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, simmer 1 1/2 quarts canola oil with a whole head of garlic, a 3-inch nub of ginger, and a host of dried spices: star anise, coriander seeds, cinnamon sticks, black and green cardamom.
  • Mixing the Chilies. In a large steel mixing bowl, add the ground chilies, the Sichuan peppercorns, 1 tablespoon of salt, and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce.
  • Oil Time. When the infused oil is ready, turn the heat up to high, and when the ginger and garlic are furiously fizzing, pour the oil through a sieve into the dried chili mixture.
  • Pack It Up. When it's cooled down a bit, pour the chili oil into jars: Large if you're keeping this for yourself, smaller if you want to give as gifts. (This stuff makes a good gift!)
  • Ready to Rock. While it's pretty good right now, it will taste even better a few days from now. Plus, it'll keep pretty much forever, especially if you put it in the fridge.
  • Get Saucy. But of course, why would you want to just store it? I use it all the time to make a sauce for boiled dumplings: a good heaping spoonful or two with a ton of black vinegar.
