It’s just the absolute best. The taste of Szechuan Pepper with the chilis probably makes this my favorite dish I cooked so far.
Plus you can make the remainder of the cooking process into chili oil.

woe is both of us friend. my daiso didn’t have it and i’m pooped. I gotta save the rest of my energy for rehearsal tonight, i have a gig on easter and they want me to show off (me showing off has been bringing people in to the church to watch the band the week we play each month. the band keeps getting better and better it’s so much fun).
i’m going to the good spice market tomorrow and bringing this photo. is the block of deliciousness laziji? because i’ll just start there. i know i’m going to like it if i put it on bacon or make it like larb
Most Chinese markets should have the real one anyway, which is fantastic and worth looking for: it’s “mala huoguo tangdi”, or in english “spicynumb hotpot base”, in Chinese “麻辣 火锅 汤”
If you show those pictures to a Chinese person, they’ll know exactly what you’re showing them.
laziji means “chili chicken” so don’t say that, show them the picture of the block in its packaging and “麻辣 火锅 汤”, they’ll know what it is.
Yea, it’s crazy good, you’ll dig it; I have made it with larb and pretty much every form of meat and veg stir-fry and it’s always nuts good. I almost exclusively use that spice block when I cook nowadays because it’s very straightforward, portionable, delicious and quick.
Good luck with your gig!
Thanks! I get to juggle
