Please check SEE WOO mainly located in London but has a retail location in Glasgow, Scotland as well. I think you can order on-line. See Woo is a real standard in the UK market with connections in the Republic of Ireland as well. Warm wishes from Northern California

Hi Nicolai, the Sichuan dried chilies are actually not all that spicy. They’re not meant to knock you flat; they actually get added to recipes in large quantities in dishes like Chongqing chicken: https://thewoksoflife.com/chongqing-chicken/. If you want a really spicy chili, you can use the Thai chilies if you like!

They are truly invaluable and have really ignited my passion for cooking over the past few years.

I have a question though: which dried chilis do you prefer to use? I’ve used (super hot) Thai chiles in the past because they’re easier to come by where I live, but I recently switched to chao tian jiao/facing heaven chiles, which don’t seem very spicy in comparison. Or maybe I got a bad batch or just have to use a lot more?

Shippping if possible to the UK would be prohibitive. I am trying to compile a list from the illustration but not everything is pictured in such a way as to make it possible. A simple list of ingredients would be enough – that might be easier than including brand names.
I will sincerely appreciate any help you can give.

Hi Stuart, as we’re in the U.S., we’re not as familiar with the availability of Chinese ingredients in the U.K. but perhaps another reader in your area can chime in here?
