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.

  • I just bought the chilli crisp and used it over some bland noodles I had for lunch. Instant improvement! I love the spicy kick, it's just about right. Not overpowering and elevates the food.

  • This is a great product. It brings joy to dishes but I prefer the Momofuku chilly crunch.

  • I've tried several different brands of chili crisp and I have to say, Fly by Jing is definitely one of my favorites! I was really excited to use the deal offered because I was able to try different flavors. I'm obsessed with chili crisp and put it on everything and I was not disappointed. I tried the Zhong Sauce and the Xtra Spicy Chili Crisp and both absolutely delivered in flavor. Fly by Jing is such an interesting brand and I can't wait to try more of their things!

  • Fly By Jing Chili Crisp is a bit too oily for me but it is loaded with complex layers of flavor and is a delicious topping for just about anything. Recommended for natural ingredients as well.

  • Loved it. Just the right amount of heat and obviously amazing flavor and crunch.

  • Tastes great. But expensive

  • This is a great sauce. I've been using it pretty frequently, and it goes well with a host of foods. I think they could do a spicier version, though, which is more authentically Sichuan.

  • Absolutely delicious! Ordered the Triple Threat and ended up trying it on almost everything. So many different recipes you can make to spice up the weeknight meals.

  • First of all, I really love the Fly by Jing packaging. It’s colorful and fun while still being very chic, and definitely catches my eye! I really enjoyed both chili crisp variations; they had great flavor and are super versatile. I used them on rice, in soup, on noodles, etc. They add a nice heat and savory flavor to dishes. I only wish they had a tiny bit more of the “crisp” factor! The price is very reasonable for the quality of product you’re getting as well as the amount. Would definitely repurchase!

  • I kinda hate this product because I literally can't eat anything without it now. Food is just not the same without the spicy-zingy flavor that Fly By Jing Chili Crisp brings to ANY dish. I've used on everything from popcorn to poke, ice cream to cornbread, and anything I can think of in between. Never stop. Please. I wouldn't ever be able to enjoy food again.

  • I love chili oils and this one is the best yet! Loved the smoky umani flavor of the chili oil and that it's not too salty. I used it on everything, noodles, rice, dumplings and more. Must try for chili lovers!

  • This stuff can be used on everything! Love it on eggs, avocado toast, pasta, rice bowls

  • I have tried the chili crisp. It has a unique flavor profile that makes it different from other brands, to the point where I think you could have more than one version on hand if you really enjoy chili crisp/chili crunch. Definitely interested in trying other items!

  • Beautiful design and good taste! pefect chili oil for making asian styled salad

  • I love love love this sauce! I was thinking it was going to be a bit too spicy but its not at all. It's super flavorful and is the perfect topping for ramen or veggies. I can't wait to try the full line!
