NEW: Ready-made Thai Red Curry, Aroy-D
We usually don't recommend the premade Thai curry found so often in stores like Trader Joes, because a good Thai curry should start with a curry paste, then add coconut milk, fish sauce, and kaffir lime leaves as it's being prepared.

This premade Thai curry from Aroy-D is quite good if you don't have a lot of time. It's the best we've tasted, from dependable Aroy-D (makers of Thailand's best coconut milk).

All you do is heat it over a stovetop, and add chicken (or your meat of choice), cook and serve with jasmine rice. Very tasty and quick. Spicy too, not overwhelming, but this has good chile heat.

Ingredients: coconut milk, water, pumpkin, chile oil, red curry paste (dried red chile, garlic, lemongrass, shallot, salt, galangal, kaffir lime peel, corriander seed, cumin powder), basil leaves, sugar, red chile, salt, kaffir lime leaves. Product of Thailand.

NEW. Sticky Rice Cracker, Sugarcane & Pandan, 4.3 oz
A snack made of Thai sticky rice and natural sugarcane, flavored with pandan leaves and coconut milk. Wholesome snack that you'll really enjoy. Inside each 4.3 oz package are 5 rolls, about 6 inches long.

Aside from being a delicious snack loaded with flavor, these are big hearty snacks that satisfy the appetite. Not another wimpy rice cracker, a lot goes into it. Ingredients: sticky rice, sugar cane, tapioca starch, coconut, sesame seeds, and pandan. Product of Thailand.

Hot Ingredient: Healthy Boy Yellow Bean Sauce
We recently got an email from a chef stating that Thai yellow bean sauce will become a popular trend among cooks of all types (not just Thai) because of it's unique aroma and bold salty flavor. Are you familiar with it?

Here we have a brand new shipment, fresh pack, and we're offering a low price so you can get your hands on some to experiment. We'd love to get feedback on how you used yellow bean sauce. In Thai cooking, some of our favorite dishes are made with it, notably khao man gai, radna, and gai joo khing. More recipes at this link.

Healthy Boy is the most famous brand and widely used soy sauce in Thailand. Superior quality made in the traditional natural ferment aging process, please see our feature story on how soy sauce and yellow bean sauce are made. Product of Thailand.

Kiwi -- Very Inexpensive Thai Knives That Perform Well For Years. Recently kk.org "Cool Tools", a popular website created by a technology author, featured a story about the virtues of inexpensive Kiwi knives from Thailand. We got quite a few orders from the story.

When compared to knives from Japan or America or Germany, for example, Kiwi aren't the "best". Most Thais can not afford expensive imported knives, but Thailand is a country obsessed with spices, food and cooking. So they make their own knives, with local incomes and longterm culinary use in mind. We've heard from many chefs over the years who love Kiwi knives, most had at some point worked with Thais and discovered them that way. High quality stainless steel and a very hard, yellow plastic handle.

Here we are offering a set of two Kiwi knives (shown above) for our newsletter readers, for just $1. Use this opportunity to get to know the type of quality Thailand has to offer when it comes to cooking tools. See our entire selection of Kiwi knives here. Made in Thailand.
