Absolutely not! That’s like saying all hot sauces taste the same. My good friend put it this way, which instantly clicked with me: It’s like how not all kimchi tastes the same! Depending on what types of chili flakes, oil, seasonings, and additional ingredients are used, chili crisps can taste wildly different from each other. Some might be super mild, while others may be oilier, or crunchier and spicier. The exciting options and wide range of flavors and textures of chili crisp are the reasons why I highly encourage you to try many different types to find your favorite and build your perfect chili crisp collection.
