It’s got a kick, but we're all about flavour, not just fire. The Original is more deeply savoury than it is hot. If you're chasing a proper burn, our Extra Spicy version is the one you want.
MSG is monosodium glutamate, the secret to that deep, 'just-one-more-spoonful' flavour called umami. We use it proudly because it makes our chilli oil taste ridiculously good. It's the most misunderstood ingredient on the planet, but it's perfectly safe and delicious.
Keep it in the pantry. Just make sure to use a clean spoon every time you dip in. Honestly, you’ll finish it in no time anyway.
Honestly, everything. Drizzle it on eggs, pizza, pasta, and sad veggies. If you need inspiration, check out the recipes IGA shoppers are smashing. It will absolutely ruin plain avo toast for you forever.
