Fly by Jing Dropped a Limited-Edition Advent Calendar and It Has All Our Favorite Sauces (It’s Going to Sell Out!)
Somehow, the holiday season is already right around the corner. When it comes to finding gifts and making plans for festivities, there’s no such thing as starting too early. It’s better to figure things out before your calendar is packed with celebratory get-togethers and outings, instead of scrambling later. Plus, why not have an excuse to get into the holiday spirit sooner? It’s the most wonderful time of the year, after all!
Advent calendars are a great way to make the holiday season that much more special, whether you’re gifting one to yourself or your loved ones. With so many options available nowadays, you can find one that’s suited exactly to your (or their) taste. One of our favorite condiment brands, Fly By Jing, just dropped one of its own that we can’t wait to get our hands on. If you’re a fan of Chinese or spicy foods, find out more about it below!
What Is the Winter in Sichuan Advent Calendar?
First, if you haven’t heard of Fly By Jing yet, let me give you the full rundown. Since 2018, the brand has released a lineup of spices, sauces, and toppings inspired by founder Jing Gao’s hometown of Chengdu, China. With little effort on your part, their quality add-ons and ingredients will instantly elevate your regular meals. We can attest to that, having tried everything from Fly By Jing’s versatile Sichuan Chili Crisp to its hot pot base.
“Because the chili and peppers featured in this are traditional (and prized) Sichuan ingredients, they possess that acclaimed tongue-numbing quality, but it’s more mild in this crunchy sauce,” says our review of the former item. Our tester, Stella, has added it to Greek yogurt, salmon, rice, mushrooms, takeout — I could go on, but you get the idea.
With its Winter in Sichuan Advent Calendar, you’ll get 12 two-ounce flavor surprises in a cute package. If our rave reviews of its offerings are any indication, you’ll have trouble waiting until December to open it. The gift box includes Fly By Jing’s most popular chili sauces, as well as brand-new ones that no one else has tried before. The ingredients are all high-quality, and they don’t contain MSG, artificial preservatives, or artificial flavors.
Once you taste the sauces for yourself, you’ll likely start using them on everything like we did, but your stash will last for a while after the holidays. (Which makes it totally worth it compared to the traditional chocolate advents, if you ask me.) This unique calendar is bound to sell out quickly, so don’t wait to add it to your cart!
