Ingredients
the spices
- 1/2 cup crushed chiles or chili flakes
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 star anise
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 Tbsp toasted sesame seeds
- 1 tsp Sichuan peppercorns
- 1 tsp black peppercorns
- 4 cloves
- 1 tsp five spice powder
the oil
- 2 cups canola oil (also use soybean, peanut, or sesame oil)
- 1 inch long piece of fresh ginger, cut in half
Instructions
- Stir together all the spices in the bottom of a heat proof jar or bowl. It should be large enough to hold the spices and the 2 cups of oil.
- Heat the oil and ginger in a saucepan over medium to medium high heat until it registers 270F with an instant read thermometor.
- Remove the ginger and carefully pour the oil (it will sizzle!) into the jar. Stir the contents well.
- Let cool for an hour, then remove the cinnamon stick, bay leaves, and star anise. Cap and refrigerate until needed.
