How to Make the Best Chili Oil | ASMR (No Music)

Learn how to make homemade chili oil using this easy recipe! Enjoy this ASMR Cooking Video.
You can substitute Gochugaru for other chili powders that are spicier (eg. Red Thai Chili). Gochugaru has a sweetness & color that just cannot be beat! It's also not too spicy. Use any neutral oil you'd like. I used Avocado oil for its smooth buttery flavor.

It smells unbelievable. Best thing is that it's not too spicy at all but has immense smoky flavor.
