Thai Recipe Update / ImportFood

Hello again and good day to you, our wonderful customers.  Thanks for all of your support, as we are now entering our 28th year in business.  Today we suggest Por Kwan Chilli Paste with Holy Basil, and Sweet Basil.  Two of the great authentic Thai products that we sold from the very beginning in 1999, and it's still the same formula.  Fresh Thai produce Tom Yum Kit, Koon Chun Plum Sauce, and more.  Thanks for visiting!


Thai Chili Paste With Sweet Basil Leaves

A fragrant, all natural, delicious mix of spicy Thai chili peppers and sweet basil leaves. The chiles have high heat, so just a tablespoon will really make you sweat, but the heat is balanced by the rich aroma of sweet basil. Use sparingly for lower heat.

Packed in a glass jar. Ingredients: sweet basil leaves, soya bean oil, chili peppers, garlic, salt. Product of Thailand.

Mama, Chan Tom Yum Instant Noodles

Here we have a fairly new style of Mama, made using premium chantaboon rice stick noodles. Serving size is 1.94 oz dry, which is a bit larger than most Mama noodle packs. One bowl can fill you up, and the tom yum flavor is just as you might hope for--a lovely combination of sour & spicy.

Add the three separate spice packets, then add hot water, and let sit for 3 minutes.
