Fly by Jing earns strong reviews for delivering flavorful, versatile Sichuan-inspired condiments—standouts include the OG Sichuan Chili Crisp and Zhong Sauce—that reliably elevate eggs, noodles, dumplings, and more. Reviews also flag notable drawbacks: many find the products very oily with inconsistent crunch, sometimes too mild (or occasionally too hot), and multiple mentions of leaky, messy jars and chili-to-oil imbalance.

  • Every product I have tried from them has been 5 stars. They all taste so good and the spice level is just right. I put this on everything from eggs, noodles, dumplings and in dips. It’s so yummy and super good!

  • I'll be honest: the price was steep, but WOW this product is so flavorful. No notes. I usually mix my Asian sauces to get a specific flavor I am looking for - this required no mixing and was ready to use as is.

  • I love this stuff and put it on almost everything! It has the perfect amount of heat and crunch. This is definitely a product I'll continue to buy and can't wait to try all the flavors.

  • Such a flavorful chili crisp! The Sichuan crisp is pleasantly numbing and kicks my homemade mapo tofu up a notch. I’ve also tried the doubanjiang, and it’s STRONG. Don’t use as much as you would if you were using a doubanjiang from the grocery store.

  • Great flavor, lived up to the hype

  • with so many chili oils and chili crisp oils, fly by jing is different and delicious. i already had a large jar of the extra spicy chili crisp in my fridge and my mother in law just got me a sample pack of the other flavors! i really enjoyed trying the chengdu crunch and look forward to having the others.

  • Their chilli oil is absolutely out of this world, I put it on everything I can put it on, lol. Just so delicious and everything I could ask for!

  • Amazing atop ramen, delicious on avocado toast, a perfect addition to any tofu or rice dish. I am basically obsessed with it. I will continue to buy this item and recommend it to friends!

  • Tried their chili oils and exceeded my expectations. It's definitely on the pricey side, but the taste is good with a nice heat. I do find that it does "mask" flavors instead of "enhances" since they use alot of seaweed and mushroom powder to get the "umami-ness" without using MSG, the tradeoff is that if you use this on your food, you will get a strong seaweed flavor.

  • My favourite chilli crisp! Very nice, savoury flavour, with decent spice.

  • I finished this in a month because I ate it everyday. So good!

  • their zhong sauce is unmatched i put it on everything it's fire

  • I love this brand and their products! I always have a jar of the chili crisp in my pantry!

  • Flavor and spice are pretty nice, beans were a bit chewy but overall adds a nice depth to rice and anything else you want to jazz up a bit! Would recommend.

  • The Zhong sauce's flavor profile has become one of my favorites. it pairs so well with vegetables. the Sichuan chili crisp is fine. I can't handle spice well but it's doable. the packaging allows for the outside of the jar to get oily. The chili crisp isn't worth it in my opinion, but the Zhong sauce is.

  • Delicious chili sauces - will keep as my number one brand as long as the brand stays somewhat small.

  • This sauce is super delicious,they are quite spicy but superb,I like the list of ingredients free of harmful ingredients ,unfortunately it’s on the expensive side.
