VIDEO: Turn Leftover Sriracha Into Chile Oil

The good folks at CHOW have posted an awesome little video showing how to make chile oil with leftover Sriracha. Now, I know what you’re thinking… “What is this ‘leftover Sriracha’ you speak of?!?” It’s not to imply that there’s ever any Sriracha that you won’t be able to do something with, but this helps you use up the little bits that are left hanging out on the walls of your sad empty bottle.

Don’t throw that away! CHOW suggests pouring in a little bit of a neutral-flavored cooking oil, shaking, and using it as a chile oil. They like to use it in a stir-fry, mixed into a marinade, or drizzled on top of pizza. (More oil on top of pizza?! Yikes!)

I can see it on popcorn, Thai papaya salad, sliced mango, roasted potatoes, or used to cook omelets, fried rice, or grilled pineapple.

What would you use it on? (And is anyone else freaked out by the super close-up sound bites in the video?)
