+Strictly Dumpling just a tip from an old Italian cook: always turn the handle of your pan on the stove around so that it does not "hang off" the edge of the stove. you won't accidentally bump it and knock it off the stove.
Hey Mike! I recently made this for my husband with some tweaks, and he absolutely loved it. I am an all things Asian fanatic. And have turned him onto a couple of things. I made this with the Chinese peppercorn, a veg/peanut oil mix, ground chili powder, and a five star spice powder. It turned out really well. Keep doing what you do. Much love!
For your first cooking video gotta say it's one of the better cooking videos. Well explained, easy to follow, and great attention to details the viewer appreciates
mexicans have essentially the same thing but we use the whole dry chile de arbol a couple of them, lightly fry them let the oil cool, place the oil in a blender along with the chiles a small piece of garlic and a pinch of salt and blend.
Nihilistic Moron holy crap I think I had some of that from a taco truck and it destroyed me lol. I knew it would be spicy but not THAT spicy. They also had a creamy looking version like they mixed in some crema or something.
Normal store-bought salt includes iodine as well because historically people would develop thyroid disorders (they still do in third world countries without access to iodine-infused salt) and the disorder would be a goiter which is when there is a huge lump on your neck. People figured that adding more iodine to salt would be an easy way to make sure people get enough iodine into their regular diets. Sea salt still has some iodine but considerably less so there's not really a health benefit to using it. TLDR: iodine-treated salt is not dangerous and is vital for health
Even if you claim it changes the flavor (it doesn't, unless you have factual evidence to back t hat claim) you can buy table salt, kosher salt and sea salt WITHOUT iodine. Also, the claim that other salt is bad because its "chemicals" is beyond uneducated, salt is literally sodium chloride... And if you're afraid of any chemical that sounds scary, then the chloride part alone should drive you far away from ever using salt (NaCl) on anything ever again.
the bit of salt that tastes good is the salt. All the "natural" looking impurities in fancy salt don't taste salty, they're just little bits of useless rock in your food.
You've got a really great energy to your videos whist being entertaining! I love watching your beyond sciences videos and now i can't wait to start learning your cuisine! I'm going to try this out, i have a good amount of chili's that have been drying out in my cupboard for years
I made this earlier! :) I put some fresh garlic in mine to infuse it into the oil and removed the cloves once it got to room temp. its SOOOOO good! I had it with fragrant jasmine rice. Amazing, amazing flavor! Thank you for making this video!
Apparently anywhere from several weeks to months to up to a year. I read an article somewhere that said oils with vegetables in them should be refrigerated.
You may not put hot oil on ice cream, but Brigadier General McIlhenny (head of the company that made Tabasco) put Tabasco on his ice cream when he visited Marine Military Academy and ate lunch with us in the Cadet Mess, back in the late 70's. Give your oil a try!
+AsianInGlasses I think you'll have a hard time convincing people that Tabasco isn't spicy :) It certainly isn't super-hot at all, but it is legendary for being spicy, at least in America, which may make both of our points very well :) I make my own Szechuan hot numbing oil, and it's wonderful stuff. I only warm the groundnut oil to the point where it will encourage the Szechaun peppercorns to release the sanshool and let it steep for two hours. Then I mix in pulverized ripe Thai chili peppers as the backing heat, and then age it at room temperature for about a month because the peanut oil won't go rancid during that time, then in the refrigerator it goes until needed. Marvelous stuff, and it transforms the sensations of the other flavors in the dish. Very numbing, good heat. It does make me cry, but they are tears of utter culinary joy.
I tried it with some substitutions, and it's darned good. I used crushed red pepper whirred up in a blender and soaked it in melted coconut oil, with Himalayan Sea Salt. I didn't have Szechuan peppercorns and didn't think high heat would be necessary. It probably isn't as instantly fragrant, but it is perfect in stir-fries and cooking where I would add sesame oil at the end. I'm going to order the right ingredients and try it according to the exact recipe posted. Hurry up, Amazon!
It really sounds like he's saying "penis" everytime he says "peanuts". It even says "I like penis" in the captions when he says "I like peanuts" at 3:33
We have lots of coconut, cashews and cocoa here in the Philippines. Tried the combo before and it is awesome! I will try using chili instead of cocoa nips and will let you know how it went ☺
Wow never knew it would start cooking inn in the container. I'm definitely going to try this.... Never knew it was so easy to make.... Thank you for sharing 👍
Hi Mikey, my brother's name was Michael. Thanks for being in my life. I feel like we're friends. I really, really appreciate you loading the video & sharing Recipe for Hot Oil
Mikey , I came back to this video again after around 3 years maybe. This was the very first video of you that I watched and I am still currently and consistently hooked to all your food vlogs 🥰
Love, love, love this! One tip, though: nstead of scooping the Sichuan peppers out of the oil, just pour the oil through a strainer into the chili, salt and peanut mix.
Heat up oil with peanuts. The moment first smal bubbles appear, remove from fire. Keep pepper in oil. Mix all and leave for few days.All will settle on bottom of oil, Than strain. You have pure lovely oil.
i made this 8 years ago - still the best - just chilli flakes and oil. It is so good I put it in everything I eat. Now I want to try it with ghee and then with butter instead of oil. Thanks Mike!!!
There I was watching some strictly dumpling vids and thought to myself 'hey that hot oil looks good, I wonder how to make it'. Searched RUclips and Bam! Mike made his on vid on it 🔥
Hi there Mike, I am a hot chili oil addict too; I love spicy food. In my country Ghana, we have several hot chili oil based condiments, which we eat with many of our dishes. Some of our hot chili oils are made with pepper flakes, ginger, smoked prawns, onions or shallots and dried or smoked anchovies...All the ingredients are pounded in a wooden mortar and fried in the oil ...I am very sure you will like those sauces because the Chinese investors and Expatriates in my country, love them.
Clas Vintage Oh yes...The Chinese are our spicy food eating partners... Spicy food is gradually introduced at a young age in the Ghanaian culture. By the time a child celebrates their 10th birthday, they are already on their way to become spicy food champs. Some kids even question their parents when family meals are not spicy. I remember both my grandmothers surprising my siblings and I with morsels of spicy treats from the kitchen during playtime in our yard... They would walk over and pop a spicy savory treat into our mouths while we run and play. My maternal grandma would swear that it keeps us closer to the blessings of the Ancestors... Ghanaian kids also learn how to pick and spit out fish bones and fruit seeds, right out of their mouths, whilst training to handle spicy food... Pleased to meet you #SpicyFoodFellow lol.
Class Vintage :) i think she was talking about living long. My granny explained that, spicy food is a source great health and prolonged life. She and her sisters all lived to be over a hundred years old. She actually died at the age of 103 and her baby sister who actually baby sat my mother, lived to be 110 on simple spicy African diet...I hope to live long too lol...
If you like more tingly-numb sensation from the szechuan peppercorns- which I do and I don't really like the red pepper seeds, either-let them steep with the red peppers and then strain the whole batch. Scallion is also really good to steep and remove from the hot oil, too.
Whenever I cook (not too often because I'm 14), I always add several handfuls of Sichuan peppercorn to dishes. Things just don't taste as good without spice.
Heat up oil with peanuts. The moment first smal bubbles appear, remove from fire. Keep pepper in oil. Mix all and leave for few days.All will settle on bottom of oil, Than strain. You have pure lovely oil.
Never overheat virgin olive oil. Granted, the other kind may not be easy to find where you live. But, this whole don't overheat olive oil thing only applies to the higher quality virgin ones. I want to say "you can overheat regular olive oil" but the regular olive oil is virgin in most of the world. But of course you don't want any of those tastes in a Chinese chili oil.
Nickolas Lim, I don’t know what overheating means exactly, but I do use extra virgin olive oil all the time for cooking, stir frying, shallow frying, etc etc. It is still better than using ultra heat treated cooking oils available in the market.
i made this for the first time so very2 tasty..it goes with many types of food.everyone in my offc asked for the recipe..i did a simple one with chilli garlic,lemon juice and salt..
I've been looking 4 another Yan can cook dude, signature "look at dis humm"! You add humm to everything. Thanx for posting all of your content. I appreciate it.
I make it with just oil, salt, chillies, and minced garlic…. That way I can put it on pasta, steak, soup, western foods, and Asian foods too… Awesome stuff.
I finally got around to making this.... omg yum! Better than any store bought hot sauce/oil ever! I think my oil was a bit hot because it toasted it almost too much... but its so good! So easy and cheap to make too!
I LOVEEE Chinese hot oil oooh so so much!! I got to try this recipe.. I love peanuts 😍😍 But I also love olives and olive oil and so I'll try it with light or pure olive oil.. 🤔 Thank you for this.. 👍🏾 You've added to my life with this one.. 🤗
I would toast the peppercorns a little bit before adding the oil, and would not use olive oil because of its low smoke point. Besides that - this recipe is awesome
Stumbled over this video. Wasnt my intention. SUBSCRIBED IMMEDIATELY after watching. In Chinese restaurants this hot chilli oil is acid. I had already bought the crushed chilli to sprinkle in my omelettes. Now I can make FRESH HOMEMADE Hot Chilli Oil. Thanks for sharing caring and making me smile. A big cuddly hug from France. ❤❤❤🥰🥰🥰👍👍👍
FYI the three most commonly used salts i.e. table salt, kosher salt and sea salt, all have their own individual uses and applications. The fine grain of table salt is ideal for adding to bread dough for even distribution, the large grains of kosher salt are idea for forming crusts when searing meat, and sea salt is best used for finishing a dish by sprinkling on top. Its almost 100% sodium chloride anyway, and if its not from the sea its mined from the ground, so it's all natural anyway, aside from some anti caking agents and iodine as someone else mentioned
So I went for this one (not the 2.0 on purpose). Just wanted a simple chili oil for my first batch ever. I definitely didn't have my oil hot enough. There wasn't any bubbling, or snap, crackle and pop. I lost some oil in the process, and now several days later, my chilis are sitting on the bottom of this liquid hot lava. Had a simple cucumber salad with a little salt, sugar, and the hot oil and it was the most spicy thing I have ever ate. Clearly I need to go for take 2!
+George Maniatis Not totally sure, but they look boiled/steamed to me. A lot of Chinese people (my family included) boil peanuts and eat them that way.
+Sunny Chi Actually It's raw to begin with. I know what you mean when you said your family boiled them. They are most likely to have cooked the peanuts in their actual shell and eat them like snacks; my family does the same.
Well, I live in Marseille, and for us olive oil is a seasoning oil just like the sesame one. We make hot oil with crushed pepper in _cold_ olive oil. I want to try this recipe, but with a cooking oil like the sunflower's one or colza for example. Edit : Finally, I try this recipe with peanuts oil. I add badiane ( star anise ) and cinnamon.
Straight amazing that I just did this recipe this evening!! Thanks for the advise with the peanuts and cooling the oil down before adding a splash of sesame seed oil at the end! I did add about a tablespoon of Kimchi pepper powder since it was laying around inside my pantry!
i LUV hot oil! its so good for you and yummy. i put it on everything too! and sxechuan pepper is so good too esp in mao pa dofu! ive never tried peanuts... but now... dont store in metal or it will eat it!
made the hot oil, I used olive oil and it was at 400 degrees, let the crushed red pepper soak in the oil for 20 min, then strained the oil with paper towel supported by a metal mesh strainer and the oil was deep red and Crystal clear. tried a drip of it and my mouth was on fire lol, very effective
I would like to know if “Fried Chili in Oil” just another name for “Hot Chili Oil” in the United States. Never having to buy it before not alone taste it, was confused when having to buy it.
Thanks for the video! The first time I had chili oil in a Chinese take out, it was SOOOOOo good that I kept asking for it after. But it never tasted as good as the first time. I tried buying them at Chinese groceries stores, but now I know why that first one was so good. Whoever made it by hand, cooked it well... Now I have the secret of Chinese chili oil...
+Strictly Dumpling just a tip from an old Italian cook: always turn the handle of your pan on the stove around so that it does not "hang off" the edge of the stove. you won't accidentally bump it and knock it off the stove.
good point when working with hot oil, thanks for sharing it is better to safe than sorry
Yes, as an Italian descendent, I fully support that statement. No handles towards the belly, or you can get a face of oil.

How long does it last before it gets rancid? Also, am I right to assume you don't store it in the fridge?
Just keep it sealed and I’d say your good, when in doubt, just do a smell test, trust your nose.
store in a mason jar that should help.

olive oil is wrong. never overheat olive oil and plus you don't want olive flavor in your chilli oil, let the spicy aromatic takes over the flavor.
Heat up oil with peanuts. The moment first smal bubbles appear, remove from fire. Keep pepper in oil. Mix all and leave for few days.All will settle on bottom of oil, Than strain. You have pure lovely oil.
Never overheat virgin olive oil. Granted, the other kind may not be easy to find where you live. But, this whole don't overheat olive oil thing only applies to the higher quality virgin ones. I want to say "you can overheat regular olive oil" but the regular olive oil is virgin in most of the world.
But of course you don't want any of those tastes in a Chinese chili oil.
It would be ok to use 3rd/4th pressing olive oil, but tbh for Chinese recipes you want to use groundnut, vegetable, canola or sunflower oil.
Nickolas Lim, I don’t know what overheating means exactly, but I do use extra virgin olive oil all the time for cooking, stir frying, shallow frying, etc etc. It is still better than using ultra heat treated cooking oils available in the market.

How long does this stay good? Do you leave it out or refrigerate it?
Gotta love that 'how to pick up chicks' T-shirt of how to pick up a real chick xD
Now i know how to Pick Chicks xD Thanks for Tip
Hahaha “the only thing I don’t put this in is ice cream” made me laugh! Nice video!
Hey man,
Loved your stuff since beyond science.. the wife and I have always loved hot oil, but no restaurant comes close to your recipe. Thanks
Simple. I’m going to try this recipe. Thank you!
i didn't know picking up chicks was that easy
just made this, lovely stuff. keep up the good work mike|
Thanks man I made mine within Chile de arbol and fresh garlic and it took me back to my childhood.
So I went for this one (not the 2.0 on purpose). Just wanted a simple chili oil for my first batch ever. I definitely didn't have my oil hot enough. There wasn't any bubbling, or snap, crackle and pop. I lost some oil in the process, and now several days later, my chilis are sitting on the bottom of this liquid hot lava. Had a simple cucumber salad with a little salt, sugar, and the hot oil and it was the most spicy thing I have ever ate. Clearly I need to go for take 2!
Cool and thankyou.
Question about the peanuts. Are they roasted or raw to begin with?
+George Maniatis Not totally sure, but they look boiled/steamed to me. A lot of Chinese people (my family included) boil peanuts and eat them that way.
+Sunny Chi Actually It's raw to begin with.
I know what you mean when you said your family boiled them. They are most likely to have cooked the peanuts in their actual shell and eat them like snacks; my family does the same.
+George Maniatis they are raw but when you pour the hot oil over it they roast. I made it last week it tastes really good.
Worth noting you can't use olive oil either really, since it also has low smoke point.
Shalimar Lake Could I add olive oil after it's cooked?
yes you can olive oil won't smoke until high heat
Well, I live in Marseille, and for us olive oil is a seasoning oil just like the sesame one. We make hot oil with crushed pepper in _cold_ olive oil. I want to try this recipe, but with a cooking oil like the sunflower's one or colza for example.
Edit : Finally, I try this recipe with peanuts oil. I add badiane ( star anise ) and cinnamon.
Not a big fan of chili and spice.... but ur kitty cat container won me over....
Straight amazing that I just did this recipe this evening!! Thanks for the advise with the peanuts and cooling the oil down before adding a splash of sesame seed oil at the end! I did add about a tablespoon of Kimchi pepper powder since it was laying around inside my pantry!
i LUV hot oil! its so good for you and yummy. i put it on everything too! and sxechuan pepper is so good too esp in mao pa dofu!

I was waiting for that ceramic mug to explode.
+Erik Voorhies do you know how those things are made? they can handle the heat just fine
great description and recipe. Using your recipe, I have made some super delicious oil. Thanks!
made the hot oil, I used olive oil and it was at 400 degrees, let the crushed red pepper soak in the oil for 20 min, then strained the oil with paper towel supported by a metal mesh strainer and the oil was deep red and Crystal clear. tried a drip of it and my mouth was on fire lol, very effective
I would like to know if “Fried Chili in Oil” just another name for “Hot Chili Oil” in the United States. Never having to buy it before not alone taste it, was confused when having to buy it.
I think the fried one is, Mexican Hot Chile oil

Top video on searching for how to make chili oil. I love it.
I made your recipe and it totally rocks! Get hotter over time as well.
Damn it... my oil got too hot and burned my chili.. Starting over!
risquecat If you first don't succeed, try try again.
2 things.
1: This recipe video was informative.
2: I like your shirt.
Thanks for the video! The first time I had chili oil in a Chinese take out, it was SOOOOOo good that I kept asking for it after. But it never tasted as good as the first time. I tried buying them at Chinese groceries stores, but now I know why that first one was so good. Whoever made it by hand, cooked it well... Now I have the secret of Chinese chili oil...
Your 'How to pick up chicks' T-shirt is hilarious!!! 😂🤣😂🐣🐥
