Chua hah bed

Chua Hah Seng is a Thai brand known for classic flavourings in Thai cuisine. At Thai-Butikken, you'll find their concentrated tamarind paste and aromatic chili oil, both of which are cornerstones of authentic Thai food. The tamarind provides the sour depth, and the chili oil adds heat and flavour. These are practical staples you'll use again and again.

What you'll find here:

• Sour tamarind paste concentrate for sour depth in dishes
• Chili oil 720ml for wok, dip, and serving

The tamarind paste is indispensable in pad Thai, where it provides the characteristic sour note, and it's also used in soups like tom yum, in curries, and in sour sauces. The chili oil can be stir-fried in a wok to add heat, drizzled over noodles and soups, or used as a dip for dumplings and grilled meat. Together, these two staples cover both sourness and spiciness in many Thai dishes.

Mix the tamarind concentrate with a little warm water for easier dosing, and taste as you go, as the paste is potent. Store both cool after opening, and let the oil stand at room temperature to keep it liquid.
