Thai Herbs and Spices

Green Curry Paste

Evolved during the reign of King Rama VI, the Thai name translates to "Green Sweet Curry". It is a creamy, milder curry with sweet and spicy notes, winning a coveted 2 Star Great Taste Award 2020.

Origin

"Well, what defines authenticity?" I don't know, but I do know this: I was born and raised in Thailand, where there was an abundance of herbs, spices, fruits and vegetables growing around my family home. It wasn't a garden or vegetable plot, it was just here, there and everywhere.

I was often the one asked to blend the herbs and spices in a stone pestle and mortar, until my arm was about to fall off. I didn't enjoy it, but in hindsight, it taught me all I know.

How is it made

So my family's traditional blend of freshly harvested herbs are stone ground to make a paste. The whole spice (not powdered) is then freshly ground just before being pan roasted and combined with the fresh paste. Furthermore, we do not add any sugar, oil or shrimp paste to our fresh blend which is then mildly pasteurized to retain the natural qualities and goodness so you can enjoy that distinctive aroma of fresh herbs and spices when you open the packet.
