not if it's "cooked" chile oil...
One simmers the oil with chiles in it...don't burn the chiles, but
brown/blacken them nicely (yes, a very, very fine line)...30
minutes...a couple hours...it's all preference and whatnot.
Such "recipes" are in the archives. And yes, one should exercise
extreme caution when "boiling" oil...
Peace, Hendrix, and Chiles.......
