How to use

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. [Usage Secret]
  2. [Ultimate Dipping Sauce] Put soy sauce (or Jiangyou Gao) in a small dish, mix in just a 'toothpick tip' of this paste. Dipping dumplings, Xiaolongbao, or boiled pork brings intense, tongue-piercing heat right after garlic umami.
  3. [Super-Spicy Stir-fry] Adding just half a tsp when frying cabbage or pork makes an authentic spicy stir-fry that heat maniacs rejoice over.
  4. [Hellish Beef Noodles] Dissolve into not-spicy-enough Beef Noodle soup (over-adding is absolutely dangerous).

Trivia

[Hardcore] 'Chao Tian Jiao' is a Taiwanese super-spicy chili said to be several times hotter than Japanese Takanotsume. Asking 'Do you have La Jiang (hot sauce)?' at an eatery and getting this homemade paste means it's a hardcore spicy shop. A potent drug that makes your stomach burn till the next day if carelessly adding a spoonful. The ultimate jarred souvenir for spicy food lovers.

Eating tips & etiquette

[Unique Eating] Put just a tiny bit of this super-spicy garlic over Taiwan's sweet 'Lu Rou Fan', shoveling it down while enjoying the ultimate tsundere of sweetness and extreme heat!
