Prik Pao - Roasted Chili in Oil - Mae Pranom Brand
Great deal this week.
Prik Pao (or "namprik pao") is legendary in Thailand and has been a staple in Thai households for generations. This is a cooked chile paste with a variety of uses, and it's the key ingredient in tom yum.
For a quick and delicous spicy meal, simply set one tablespoon prik pao in a small dish. Next to that, a bowl of steamed jasmine rice. Now put a little steamed vegetable on top of the rice, add a dab of prik pao, and take a bite. Wonderful flavor.

Back in Stock: Thai Mangosteen, 20 oz can
Mangosteen has been very difficult to get, sometimes we have to wait two years until the harvest is adequate to put them in cans. It's a very expensive fruit and known to have health benefits.
Flavor is elegant, silky consistency, and not overly sweet.
