Chu Hou Paste - Asian Braising Sauce - 368 g
Chu Hou Paste is a classic Asian cooking paste used as a flavouring and sauce in a wide range of oriental dishes. The paste is composed of fermented soybean paste, sesame paste, ginger, garlic, and selected spices, giving it a complex and aromatic flavour profile. The product is particularly suitable for braising meat, such as beef, pork or poultry, but also works well as a base for vegetable dishes and stews. Chu Hou Paste is typically added directly to the pot or wok and mixed with the other ingredients during cooking, giving the dish a rich and full flavour. Taste-wise, the paste is deep and umami-rich with distinct notes of sesame, fermented soybeans and subtly spiced ginger. The consistency is thick and creamy, making it easy to portion and distribute evenly in the dish. The product comes in a 368g glass jar with a red lid, ensuring easy storage and reuse. The paste is labelled as suitable for vegans and contains no animal ingredients. It is ideal for homemade Asian food, including classic Chinese braising dishes. Chu Hou Paste is aimed at food enthusiasts who want to prepare authentic Asian dishes at home without using many individual ingredients. The product is a practical solution for everyday cooking of Asian-inspired meals and can be used by both experienced chefs and beginners in Asian cuisine. The paste contains SOY and SESAME, which are known allergens, and should be refrigerated after opening. As a vegan braising sauce and Asian cooking paste, this product is a versatile addition to any kitchen interested in East Asian flavour experiences.
