Description
Chili Paste With Dried Chili And Peanuts - 228 g
Chili Paste is a traditional Thai chili paste, also known as Nam Prik Pao, and is a central seasoning in Southeast Asian cuisine. The product is made from dried chili (14%), shallots, garlic, palm oil, sugar, fish sauce, and peanuts, which provides a complex and aromatic flavor profile. The paste has a dark, thick, and smooth consistency with a soft, almost creamy texture that can be easily stirred into hot dishes or mixed into cold dressings. The heat level is described as medium - the paste is more aromatic and slightly smoky in taste than explicitly spicy, making it versatile in many different dishes. It can be used as a flavor base in soups like Tom Yum, where one to two teaspoons are stirred directly into the broth to add depth and sweetness. In stir-fries and fried rice dishes, a tablespoon of paste is stir-fried in oil before vegetables or meat are added, which provides a glazed surface and a rich chili flavor. The paste also works as a marinade when mixed with lime juice and fresh herbs, and it can be used as a dipping sauce for skewers and spring rolls. The product is free from added preservatives, flavor enhancers, and colorings according to available information. The jar with a gold lid contains 228g and should be stored in a dark, dry, and cool place. After opening, the product should be stored in the refrigerator. Chili Paste is aimed at food enthusiasts, home cooks, and professional chefs who wish to work with authentic Asian flavorings. The paste is suitable as an Asian spice paste, Thai chili paste, spicy stir-fry sauce, and flavor additive for noodles and soups.
