Description
Tom Yum Paste - 400 g
Tom Yum Paste is a concentrated spice paste used as the base for the well-known Thai soup of the same name. The product is composed of a number of traditional ingredients, including lemongrass, galangal, garlic, shallots, chili powder, tamarind paste, and lime juice, which together create a complex flavor profile with distinct notes of acidity, heat, and fresh herbs. The paste is versatile and can be used for much more than soup – it also works as a marinade for fish and seafood, as a flavor enhancer in wok dishes, or as a base in various Asian sauces. Preparation is simple: dissolve an appropriate amount of paste in boiling water, add, for example, shrimp and mushrooms, and adjust the taste with fish sauce, salt, or lime juice. The paste can advantageously be portioned and stored in the freezer for future use, making it practical for everyday cooking. The consistency is thick and smooth, and the aroma is intense with distinct notes of citrus, ginger-like galangal, and lightly smoked spices. The product comes in a lidded container suitable for storage. Before opening, the paste should be stored dry, while after opening it should be kept refrigerated and consumed within five days. The generous 400g package is suitable for families and food enthusiasts who regularly prepare Asian dishes. The product contains SOY and is also declared to contain coriander and cumin. Tom Yum Paste is an excellent choice for anyone who wants to work with authentic Asian flavors at home – whether for a quick everyday soup or a more elaborate dinner with guests.
