Fly by Jing delivers bold, versatile Sichuan-inspired condiments that, according to reviews, elevate everything from eggs and noodles to dumplings—Zhong Sauce and the OG Sichuan Chili Crisp draw repeated praise for layered umami, balanced heat, and everyday usability. Reviews also flag notable drawbacks: some find the chili crisp too oily, less crispy or milder than expected, with occasional smoky bitterness and jar leakage—plus comparisons to Lao Gan Ma or Momofuku on flavor and spice—and some mention inconsistent crunch and a need to stir.

Love this chili crisp, it goes well on any dish. Super tasty, slightly addictive.

The Sichuan Chili Crisp is the bomb. Not the most traditional, but it goes with everything. I've used an entire bottle in 2-3 weeks.
Feedback
Nothing really.
I heard about Fly by Jing on social media and I love the mission and the look of their products, so I had to try it. I bought their soup dumplings and the Sichuan Chili Crisp sauce, which an absolute game-changer. My friends and I all loved it. It goes well on everything, from dumplings to eggs. The dumplings were amazing as well and the soup had a great taste.
Feedback
Minus one star as the dumplings ship frozen and mine were not packed properly, leading them all melting together in a clump. The company has great customer service and righted the issue by offering me a full refund AND sending me replacement products.
I started with the Sichuan Chili Crisp in 2019, and I finally got around to buying the 3-Pack this year. I'm glad I did! The Chili Crisp and Zhong Sauce can definitely be consumed every day. It's dangerous. The Mala, I have a harder time using but it is definitely tasty nonetheless! Plus, they forgot a small part of my order and their customer service was pleasant and so helpful. I got it shipped right away.

The Chili Crisp always leaks, but I don't think that's easily solvable.
my fav FBJ is the OG flavor. i put it on almost everything but my fav thing is eggs. it just takes it up a notch. i'd love to try every flavor eventually. i'll always be a big fan of FBJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My favorite chili crisp brand by far. Its the first one I tried and I have tried many since but every time I purchase one that is not Fly by Jing I regret it. WORTH THE MONEY.

Their chili oil is the perfect plus-up.
Overall great flavor and good variety and difference amongst each of the different options. Loving this on so many things!
Overall, we enjoyed the flavors as they all have a bit of a kick. The texture is smoother than other brands we have tried, not quite a crunch but delicious nonetheless.

Love the Sichaun Chili Crisp that I got to try! It adds the perfect amount of heat and flavor to everything I add it to - eggs, spring rolls, egg rolls, toast, etc. This is a kitchen staple and great to have on hand. Plus, the brand packaging feels super cool.

I really like the taste! It’s delicious but I don’t love that they use seed oils as they are very inflammatory and I suffer from auto immune disorder.
Such a good add-on to any dish — I personally love it with stir fry and avocado toast. It has the perfect amount of spice and flavor to enhance your food.

I tried the extra spice one expecting that it would be similar to the ones I have tried in chinese restaurants but it was way hotter. I shoudl have bought the regular chili sauce. It needs to be used very sparingly as it is a very hot sauce.

The jar is pretty small for the price, but this is a great sauce for noodles or with chinese recipes. It is not too spicy but has just the right amount of flavor.

Spicy but soooo tasty! It's the perfect addition to ramen, eggs, and more. Honestly love it more than chili crisp.

I bought these BOGO Fly by Jing chili sauce through Thingtesting. I tried the Zhong sauce in noodle. It tastes really delicious. It added the flavor to the noodle. The spice level is just perfect. I love it.

Didn't care for the low quality ingredients. Prefer items without soy or seed oils, and prefer organic ingredients.

I really enjoyed the sweet yet savory yet slightly spicy umami flavor! I served it on top of eggs and it was DIVINE! I will be buying again.

While it is a bit pricey, the Thingtesting reward is what made me bite the bullet and I'm so glad I did! This is a perfectly balanced, spicy but not mouth-numbingly-so chili crisp. I've enjoyed it on pasta, eggs, dumplings and even ice cream (don't knock it, a peanut butter ice cream with Sichuan chili crisp on top will change your mind). My only regret is not getting another flavor to try!!

I have tried multiple products by this brand. All great flavors, just a little pricey.
