Chili Onion Crunch found its way home with me on my last trip toTrader Joe's. The grocery store touts this condiment as "yet another condiment contender to the 'great on everything' hall of fame." The oily, crunchycondiment ismade from a "smoky, savory mixture of crunchy garlic, onion, peppers and olive oil," and it really is good on almost everything.

My local foodie group was full of suggestions on how to use the condiment, and so far it has been drizzled on broccolini, rubbed onroasted potatoes and used as a dip for pork and vegetable dumplings. Here are more suggestions from the group on ways to use it.Pro tip: Store Chili Onion Crunch in the pantry–it will turn solid in the refrigerator.
