Here I share with you my method of making red oil, in practice, you may need one or two trials to get a good grasp of the situation, to make the color and flavor of the red oil to.
* The following quantities of ingredients are used as a reference ratio, and should be adjusted according to your own needs
Materials:
Red chili pepper powder (sea pepper noodles) 200 grams - choose the best fresh ones, the kind that can smell the fragrance.
Korean Chili Powder 100g - Korean Chili Powder helps to make the color of the finished product bright.
Crushed Chili Peppers 50g - Crushed chili peppers will help the flavor of the finished product.
Pepper grains 20g
Cooked white sesame seeds 50g - Adds flavor to the finished product.
Salt 10g
Vegetable oil 500ml
Procedure:
- Mix the dry ingredients in a container that is not afraid of heat.
- Heat the oil to 70% heat, pour it into the dry ingredients and mix well with bamboo chopsticks to rest for more than 2 hours. (To judge if the oil is 70% hot, put a small drop of water into the oil, if the water immediately produces a "squeak" sound, it's OK; if the oil is already smoking, it's too hot, let it cool down for 1 minute before using it, otherwise the red oil will be bitter.)
- Pour the red oil into a glass jar for storage.
