the packaging was compact and well-sealed, ensuring the chilies remained fresh upon arrival. Upon opening the pack, I was greeted with a pleasant, authentic aroma that hinted at the quality of the product. The chilies themselves were whole, which I prefer as it gives me the flexibility to use them in various forms – either whole, chopped, or ground.One of my favorite ways to use these chilies has been in hotpot. They add a perfect medium-level spiciness that complements the broth without overpowering the other ingredients. The chilies infuse the broth with a deep, rich color and a flavor that is both spicy and slightly smoky. It's been a game-changer for my hotpot nights, offering that authentic Szechuan punch that I was looking for.The versatility of these chilies is impressive. Apart from hotpot, I've used them in several Mexican recipes and even some of my own creations. They work wonderfully in salsas, chili, and even as a spicy garnish on top of dishes. Their heat level is just right – noticeable but not so intense that it masks the other flavors in the dish.

These are a welcome topping for most of my dinners. I keep a pair of scissors close by and cut in teeny tiny pieces. ✂️.

Hard to find in local stores. I needed them for General Tso chicken. Dried peppers last a long time in storage and are great for a kick in my Chinese recipes

The chilies are whole and not broken, which is good quality. They will add good taste for your dishes, but the flavor is not that strong.

These are exactly what I needed. They came quick and the fresh resealable pouch is a nice feature.

I was very pleased with these chilies. They added great flavor and the desired amount of heat.

I am a southern Chinese who was exposed to very little use of the dried chilly in cooking. To you all who are new at this, please do not treat it as a vegetable and fill your dish with it. It is so Spicy HOT it would blister your mouth! There have been a lot more northern Chinese restaurants in my neighborhood and I am appalled at the amount of dried chilly they add to some of their dishes. Stry fried, it tastes like spicy hot dried paper that is difficult to chew down. I can not understand how other people can swallow it. Use it only in recipes calling for it but leave it on the plate as the equivalent of a star anise seed or a stick of cinnamon. I would said don't bother to eat it. Good luck.

I make my own generals and orange sauce and use these chilies. I also have tossed them in the coffee grinder to make a powder and added them to my marinades. Keep the bag sealed and they will last. Don't leave the bag open longer then it need to be. Just to be safe i have some small jars that i put them into as i don't really trust the zip-lock style bags. Any who don't forget to wash your hands after handling and breaking them also the seeds will go flying when chopping them.
