What is chili crisp?
Your new favorite condiment!
Chili crisp sauces are traditionally made with chili peppers, aromatics, and spices infused in oil for a perfectly crunchy, crispy, tingly, flavorful kick. Chili crisp has roots in Sichuan cuisine, but is universally delicious on any dish.
We developed our olive oil-based recipe over years of feedback from friends, family, and neighbors. When we made the first batch, we didn’t think it would grow up to have its own website, but here we are! Thank you for being part of the Big Spoon fam.

My favorite ways to enjoy this is on kimchi eggs, corn on the cob, and in soup!
I happened to be at a farmer’s market in Sebastopol CA last fall and sampled this chili crisp. We loved it!
We just ordered more!
It’s really great!
I highly recommend you get some!
Green gems is my favorite, not spicy but super flavor.
I love it on eggs, vegetables & fish. I also add it to hummus!. I buy the large jar every time.
Anything you can cook can be made better with Big Spoon sauces...............
Love, not like, it goes well beyond like. Maybe it goes to far but there are few food stuffs that arent improved with this delightful Chlli Crisp
We use this wonderful sauce in and on so many foods to add a great Kick of Heat.
I am a loyal devotee of Dragon’s Booty and I decided to pick up Green Gems to add to my rotation. I like using furikake and fried garlic as toppings, so Green Gems’ flavor profile sounded great.
Dragon’s booty is still my go-to for adding heat and complexity to rice bowls and noodles, but OMG Green Gems is its own kind of perfect. Garlicky, nutty, green umami bomb that I think can accompany all kinds of flavors. I think this would be perfect for summertime grilling, added to soups, any kind of meat, tofu or vegetables. I feel like incorporating this into a mayo for sandwiches or a salad dressing would also be super good. BUY THE BIG JAR and apply generously!!
Always happy to receive the bounty.
I share it with those I love.. and spoon it on many dishes.
Thank you for what you do.
Keep it rolling ~
Arrived safely. Love the new seasonal flavor.
The walnuts are nice, big pieces and very crunchy. It's just spicy enough to warm the tongue but not enough to have a backburn, and it makes outstanding dressing for Asian Coleslaw--Yum!
This sauce is truly yummy and yet difficult to describe. Hardly spicy, yet warming. Not salty, yet a great alternative to salt. It was delicious on a vegetarian egg pie/quiche, also on rice or noodles and sushi. I've made such a dent in my big jar in just 10 days, that I'm going to order another jar now before it's sold out again!
Green Gems is sweet and savory. Crunchy, rich, and complex. I can’t find a food that Green Gems doesn’t go with. I had some on a banana this morning because I don’t want to eat anything unless Green Gems is on top! On ice cream, yes. Avocado toast, yup. Pasta, mmmm, 😋.
I shared some with my brother and my bestie, and now I'm almost all out. Came back for more and will try a couple new flavors. Can't wait for my next club shipment!
Incredible flavor. I have tried and failed to find something that this doesn't taste amazing on! Awesome product!

From the Press Democrat: Occidental couple’s recipe for chili crisp sauce has a devoted fan base
"For those unfamiliar with chili crisp, a few whiffs of Bender frying shallots while Chan pours a complex blend of spices into a large bowl, readying it for a rendezvous with the sizzling-hot shallot oil, will entice you to make Big Spoon Sauce Co.’s acquaintance." -- Jennifer Graue, January 2023
