Fragrant-Hot Roasted Ground Chilies (Sichuan Chili Flakes, Xiang La La Jiao Mian)In Sichuan, chili oil is made from a blend of whole dried chilies that are fried or roasted until crisp and then pounded in a large mortar and pestle before they are combined with hot oil. You can make yours that way using a combination of whole chilies we carry here, but it's safe to say that most of us will enjoy a shortcut.
