Pixian chili bean paste has a rich, savory aroma, thick chili oil, and clearly defined bean granules. It's spicy but not overpowering, with a balanced salty and savory flavor. It's great for stir-frying twice-cooked pork, Mapo tofu, or braising dishes, enhancing the flavor with just a little. Generous portions, high cost-performance ratio, a must-have in the kitchen, and I'll definitely repurchase it.
