>is it really that good
Did you means to reply to a different thread, or? Like who the fuck is talking about that? I’m about as far west as it gets and I have 3 stores within 15 minutes that carry a dozen different varieties of angry grandma, but I have no idea if they have that one because it’s not anything anyone talks about.

its pretty fucking shit, honestly
my dad is a sailor, so he always visits "exotic" places so i always ask him to bring me some interesting meme foods.
he god me a jar of this once and it was pretty disapointing, honestly. Staid im fridge for probably a few years, there just isnt much to use it with, i guess if you dont cook chink food.
It doesnt have a very strong flavor, its not even really spicy and the chilli flakes just few like chewing on cardboard. Not sure if it was the exact same jar as in OP, since its all in chinese, but it had the same label and i remember having peanuts in it? It was just very oily with very subdued taste

That garbage is nothing but goybean oil, msg and sugar mixed together.
I was actually curious seeing it on the internet, and then I saw it at Walmart but then I looked at the ingredients. Overpriced junk. 15 dollars for for a tiny jar of cheap crap you could easily make yourself and it'd be better and cheaper.

In the west we avoid this horrible China paste because it contains tapeworm eggs.

It's pretty good, but IMO not the greatest thing ever like some people claim. Pretty nice for adding to dumpling sauce or cucumbers.
I've heard the quality isn't as good as it used to.

Some Anon recommended the LKK chiu chow chili crisp which is really good as well. Maybe a bit more spicy.

>Why can't it be found int he west?
But it can? I can even get it here in Norway.

Anyone can buy it if they want but you should go for a brand from your country instead of chinese gutter oil.

It is fantastic drizzled over asian rice dishes (plainrice) or soups, added to a plate of dumplings or in any dipping sauce to up the heat and flavors. It may even be addictive!
It is a delicious blend of salt, friedcrushed dried chilies, and fried shallots/onion/garlic bits, all floating in a bunch of chili red darkened unspecified oil.

>Why can't it be found int he west?
Everyone sells it, or one of the locally made versions of it, and the various brands will have less oil, more good ingredients, and more umami with a bit of the XO sauce fermented fish component, or even nuts like crushed peanuts.The import is in every grocery and certainly on amazon. Trader Joe's makes their own version too, as do most of the named NY chefs.

I like the Don Chilio mexicanized versions that name the chili peppers used. I adore their serrano and habanero versions. The ancho-macha with cranberries is even better.

It’s okay I guess but making your own is probably a million times better. this is mostly just bitter, a bit floral, with some heat. the crunch is nice but the flavor is meh

That's what I initially thought, but I don't think even OP realizes he posted something different from the basic chili crisp, or even that there are different versions. That makes sense though. I remember wanting to order some instant yakisoba and finding out that all the versions with dehydrated meat were banned in the US.

Am I the only one that thinks this shit is gross? It has a weird fishy taste like they use shitty oil or something. I tried multiple jars of it to make sure I didn't get a bad batch. One of the biggest meme product letdowns so far.

The best thing about fermented bean paste is that gweilo arent allowed to have it. And its important to remind gweilo, that they cant have anything good in life. They can have high fructose corn syrup, american cheese slices, and kosher salt.

>>19890552
having worked in a chinese restaurant for a while, i tried it on every applicable usage and never really clicked with it. on plainer rice dishes i find it makes the rice too oily, and on everything else you don't need to add extra oil or lubricant already so you can get away just adding plain dry red pepper flakes. i much prefer sambal type stuff like picrel; much lighter calorie content cuz it isn't straight oil, just chili paste. i prefer the chunky chili paste sauce when added to plain rice, and again for other purposes dry seasonings are often enough.

The beef flavor, specifically, cannot be imported into the U.S. due to restrictions on Chinese beef.

It's probably just goibean sludge and gutter cracklings and boiled tires simmered down to a nice paste with extra msg.
