Curry Paste (Thai)

curry paste (Thai) Thai curry pastes are a pounded blend of chiles and other spices, not to be confused with Indian curry powders. Thai curry pastes (red, green, yellow, and Mussamen) are now widely available in Thai and Laotian groceries in North America. Look for the Mae Ploy brand, or any other foil-packaged Thai curry paste, as long as it’s labeled “Product of Thailand.” Keeps indefinitely unopened; once the package is open, store well covered in the refrigerator.
