What is chili crisp?
Your new favorite condiment!
Chili crisp sauces are 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 their 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.

from 91 reviewsI 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!
Amazing flavor. Perfect for congee!
I bought a jar of Green Gems at the Sebastopol farmers market thinking I would like to help out the business. They have created a wow product. I'll try to grab some more next time I'm in Sebastopol.
Delicious....just like always!
Love this stuff
I can't say enough about the quality of ingredients, the flavors and the dishes these products can take to another level. Just add a spoonful to some white rice and WOW! Fried eggs in chili crunch, Wow!
Our household cannot have enough of these chili crunch flavors on hand, highly recommend!
Man, we thought we were big fans of your Magic Beans, but this Green Gems stuff is SOOO amazingly good--How do you do that?! Yum!
While all flavors are delicious, I find green gems to be the most versatile. Its low spice profile adds an umami kick to elevate your dish without overpowering it. Pairs well with so many different cuisines. Buy the big jar because you'll need it!
I love the green Gems!
It really makes boring streamed vegetables taste
So yummy!
This is beyond addicting for the spice lover. It has a wonderful kick AND amazing flavor (as you know, some spicy is just that, hot, without any real flavor -- this has both!!!!!) We have to assign members of the house their own jar, otherwise there can be... issues!
This is now a standard in the house. The flavor is amazing, and everyone can handle this level of spice (obviously for the spice challenged this will be as hot as they can handle) but they love it in moderation. When we run out of Dragon's Booty, this still give us a wonderful add to our foodz.
This is a favorite in our household. Love the flavor! Is good for those with (or a want) for a tiny spicy level. This is a staple.
We have to pace ourselves not to finish the large container in a week! It's perfect for everything.
Always excellent!

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
