Chili Oil - Lemongrass

Born in the heart of the Columbia Gorge, Sao Noi quickly became a household name. Literally translating to “little girl” in Laotian, our founder, and mom, Marnie is the youngest of her eight siblings. Mom began making her chili oils from her little, cozy restaurant kitchen in Hood River. The exotic flavors in Sao Noi‘s chili oils reflect our Southeast Asian roots, evoking a nostalgia for our family’s traditional Lao and Thai culinary recipes. Today our chili oils—available in Original, Lemongrass, and Ginger—are still handcrafted in small batches in the Pacific Northwest to ensure that a whole ‘lotta love goes into every jar!

All the awards go to our most exotic variety, lemongrass! This gem exudes a smoky earthiness that will make your vermicelli bowls, sandwiches, curries, and everything else sing! Oh, and did we mention salad dressings? The only thing they’ll be doing is undressing for this beaut (apparently, we’re suckers for puns).
