Description
The Er Jing Tiao is one of the most celebrated Sichuan chili varieties, prized for its beautiful deep red color, moderate heat, and complex fragrant flavor. Its long, slender pods are the preferred variety for making Doubanjiang (fermented bean paste), Sichuan red oil, and chili crisp condiments. An essential ingredient in authentic Sichuan cooking, it imparts a vivid red hue and distinctive aroma to dishes.
