This was a gift from me to myself. However, it wasn't planned in advance, so still 'unexpected'!
What we're looking at is premium grade, 3 year aged Pixian doubanjiang (broad bean chili paste) from Sichuan.
It cost over 3 times as much as the regular stuff, but I was in the mood for a treat. And why not?
