Zhangyazi Spicy and Hot Crispy Lotus Root Slices 30 g

Spicy and Fragrant Onset
Upon entry, the distinct aroma of Hunan chili peppers is immediately noticeable, with a direct and full-bodied spiciness that carries the natural pungency of chili peppers. It is stimulating but not harsh, instantly awakening the taste buds.
Spicy and Numbing Aftertaste
During chewing, the numbing sensation of Sichuan pepper gradually permeates, forming a dual "spicy + numbing" stimulation with the chili spiciness. The numbness is mild and not astringent, setting off the spiciness and creating a more intense "hot and addictive" sensation with each chew, ideal for those who prefer bold flavors.
Balanced Seasoning
Although the spiciness is prominent, it is harmonized by salt and aromatic spices, avoiding monotony. The aftertaste is slightly salty and umami, balancing the heat while enhancing the lingering flavor.
Crispy Texture with a Crunchy Bite
Texture of Lotus Root Slices
Selected lotus roots are cut into thin slices, processed to retain a crispy and tender texture. Biting into them produces a "crunch" sound, with no softness during chewing—just a crisp and refreshing bite.
Thoroughly Infused Flavor
The crispy lotus root slices fully absorb the spicy brine, with every texture and crevice coated in seasoning. The spiciness and aroma penetrate from the surface to the interior, delivering a mouthful of fresh and savory flavor without any blandness.
Aromatic Spices Adding Street-Level Flavor
In addition to chili peppers and Sichuan pepper, the ingredients may include traditional aromatic spices like star anise, cassia bark, and bay leaves. The fusion of brine fragrance and spicy aroma creates a "street food flavor" similar to that of roadside hotpot or brine stalls, full of 烟火气 (street-side charm).
Some flavors may have a subtle sweetness, mimicking the Hunan cuisine characteristic of "spiciness with umami, umami with sweetness," adding more layers to the overall taste and catering to the public's preference for "complex flavor profiles."
Ready-to-Eat Convenience for Versatile Scenarios
With independent small packaging, it can be opened and eaten immediately, suitable as a snack for watching TV, working, or traveling. It can also be paired with beer or drinks to relieve spiciness, or used as a side dish to enhance appetite.
The refreshing texture of the crispy lotus root slices alleviates the heaviness of the spiciness, making it difficult to get  (sick of) even after eating multiple pieces. It is ideal for those who love crispy snacks and bold flavors.
