## Description

Review: Meine Currypaste der Wahl - Die rote Currypaste von Mae Ploy ist für mich ganz klar die Currypaste meiner Wahl. Der Geschmack ist intensiv, würzig und richtig authentisch. Damit lassen sich Thai-Currys super einfach zubereiten, und das Ergebnis schmeckt jedes Mal richtig gut. Die Paste ist ergiebig, lässt sich gut dosieren und bringt eine tolle Schärfe und Tiefe ins Gericht. Für mich gehört sie inzwischen einfach in die Küche, weil sie zuverlässig für richtig guten Geschmack sorgt. Fazit: Sehr aromatisch, ergiebig und ideal für leckere Currys. Für mich die beste Wahl und ein Produkt, das ich immer wieder kaufe.
Review: Super spicy for me, bet definitely authentic! - I have to give the product 5 stars.m because the product is fine. But Holy moly is it spicy! I am used to the Thai kitchen red curry paste. I go through tiny jars like crazy when I make big batches of curry and they cost me a fortune at the grocery store. I thought I'd try to save some money buying this brand, but it is so much spicier! Flavor is great! But what good is flavor when my mouth is on fire and I can't taste anything? It's just not for me. If you can stand a medium to higher heat, this will suit you well. But I'm a mild girl. So Thai kitchen brand is better suited for me. Yes this would go farther because of how potent the spice is, but I love that full depth of flavor with less heat! I sautéed it for a few seconds in oil. Only a spoonful. I had to add two cans of coconut milk while trying to suit it to my taste and it was still too spicy. It was barely even pink. Too hot for me. I gave the rest to my father that eats raw red Thai chilies for fun! He'll love it! It's just not for a weakling like me! The 32oz tub of Thai kitchen brand is $23 compared to this $7 slightly smaller tub. But the cost difference doesn't matter in the end if I can't eat it. If you are used to Thai kitchen brand and like the nearly non existence of heat but tons of depth in flavor. Stick with that brand. If you want more heat, then this more authentic brand will be a delight! Especially for the price! I wish it worked for me! You can't beat the price for the size!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does this need to be refrigerated after opening, how long will it last after opening, thanks**
A: Yes, it does need to be refrigerated after opening because it doesn't contain any preservatives; however, it does contain a fair amount of sodium (570 mg/2 tsp) in the form of salt and shrimp paste (which contains salt), so it has natural preservatives. To be honest, I plan to give it away because I don't eat shrimp and hadn't noticed it was an ingredient, but I have other Thai red curry pastes that last months in the refrigerator. The container is 400 g, and they recommend using 50 g / recipe, so that's 8 recipes. That gives you an idea about how long it will take you to go through the container based on how often you prepare Thai red curries.

**Q: Can anyone explain the difference in taste between this brand's red curry and the panang curry?  Thanks!!**
A: Hi KC,         The major difference between the Mae Ploy red curry paste and the Phanaeng curry paste is the difference in the amount of heat you experience when the curry hits your taste buds. The Phanaeng  curry is much milder in taste and can be consumed by almost anyone in the family without having to alter the recipe to suit others that have a low tolerance to spicy dishes or deserts.

**Q: what is the sell by date on red and green curry paste and once opened can you store at room temperature or does it require refrigeration once opened?**
A: As to whether or not it needs refrigeration it does. I  keep mine in the freezer!  I cut a corner off of the inner bag that contains the curry paste, and squeeze some out whenever I need it, directly from the freezer. It'll squeeze when frozen. Then I put it back in the outer cup and back in the freezer!

**Q: how does this brand and thai red curry paste compare to Thai Kitchen brand?**
A: I have only used the Thai Kitchen paste and tried to make my dishes taste like my favorite Red Curry Chicken at the restaurant.  I couldn't get it to taste even remotely like the dish other than the sweetness of the coconut milk.  I have only used the Mae Ploy once, but even the smell was different!  I will NEVER go back to store bought again!  This stuff is AMAZING!!!!  That said, it is definitely spicy, so if you are not a spicy fan, keep it to a minimum.
