FAQs
HOW SHOULD I USE YOK CHAN'S CHILLI OIL?
You can use it however you want! Time has proven that it is very versatile.
We started off using it as a condiment predominantly, putting it on our favourite meals. But soon we found ourselves using it as a base for fried noodles, in marinades, salad dressings, or as a garnish or a topping. Soon we were using it with other sauces and condiments. Some people are using it with quite mad things like with Marmite or ice cream!
The list goes on..
WHAT CAN I USE THE CHILLI OIL WITH?
We first started using the chilli oil on the classics such as dumplings and noodles. However as time went by we soon realised how well it went with other things.
The two initial most well-paired foods that alerted us to it's prowess, the main well-trodden gateways if you will, are cheese and eggs. They are the chilli oil's best friends.
It also goes just as spectacularly with fish, honestly. Try it with smoked salmon and scrambled eggs and I assure you that dish will enter a new dimension.
The chilli oil also heightens other foods in the same way, whether it's fried rice, pasta, dumplings, curries, risotto, tacos, soups, sauces, salads.. It's sort of more now what we don't use it with. It really does go well with everything.
HOW SPICY IS YOK CHAN'S CHILLI OIL?
Ah good question, as we know that everyone has their own level of spice tolerance. We think that the regular chilli oil has a medium level of spice, not too spicy that it will blow your head off, but not too mild that you won't get that sought-after kick.
The Hotter! version however is a lot hotter. Definitely one to tread more carefully with, unless you're hardcore.
That said, if you have a constitution that is sensitive to chilli, definitely start off with small amounts at first.
As the saying goes, 'if you have sensitive guts, don't go nuts..'
IS YOK CHAN'S CHILLI OIL VEGAN AND/OR VEGETATIAN?
Yok Chan's Chilli Oil doesn't use ingredients derived from animals or animal products.
As some ingredients have 'may contain' warnings and YCCO is currently made in a home kitchen, we can't guarantee our product is 100% free from milk products, although great care is taken to control any cross contamination risks.
In regards to labelling, we believe that it's still being debated if products that have precautionary statements such as “may contain milk etc..” can be classed as ‘vegan’.
Even though a few organisations say that products with 'may contain..' items can be classed as vegan, for now we've decided to be as transparent as possible stating our product as plant based alongside the above info, letting the customer decide based on the info provided.
