Description

The most 'hardcore Chinese' variation in the series, geared towards experts. The chili oil contains rock-crispy 'bone-in chicken bits' and 'garlic'. Chicken fat (Ji You) melts entirely into the oil, creating an overwhelmingly rich depth.

Trivia

A deeply authentic product applying the Chinese philosophy 'meat near the bone is tastiest' even into a jar of chili oil. The chicken umami mellows the chili heat.

The 'strongest chicken broth flavor and garlic aroma' in the series. CAUTION: following traditional Chinese methods, the chicken is crushed 'bone-in'. Biting carelessly may hurt teeth. Spitting out bones while eating is the authentic way.
