Great Taste, Authentic Short Cut
I really have gotten into Thai cooking and of course that means curry. Started (and still) make my own from scratch but do have trouble finding all the authentic ingredients in rural America where my nearest decent Asian grocery is 100 miles away. One thing I love about Thai and Asian food in general is the speed and ease of cooking when you have the ingredients. Curry is so critical in so many dishes that having some of this pre-made paste on hand helps with throwing a great meal together quickly. I like Jet Tila's comment about using pre-made curry paste, "you don't' make you own wine and trust the experts, same with curry...". This is a Thai product and allows you to use as much as you need then store the rest in container. This package has three of the most common curry flavors. I find myself using not only for Thai but marinade for pork and chicken for the smoker. My red neck friends ask me about the BBQ sauce I used and I don't have the heart to tell them its curry paste!

very flavorful and simple to use
This is just about the easiest way to make panang curry, green curry, or red curry dishes. Everything tastes impressive because of these curry pastes, even though it's mostly as simple as adding coconut milk to them and allowing the paste's flavor blend to do the heavy lifting. I did a little research before buying this brand, and Mae Ploy seems to be THE brand most serious foodies recommend because of the overall taste and flavor potency. After using them, I can see why, and I have no need to look for another brand.

good value and flavor
The media could not be loaded. I purchased these because they had the best value per ounce of any curry paste that I saw offered on Amazon or at my local grocery store. Another plus was no added MSG or 'yeast extract" which is just another way for companies to sneak MSG in an item.14 ounces of goodness in each ample sized tubdiscernible ingredientsgood flavor, a little goes a long waymanufacturing and expiry date listed on top ... mine expire 05.20.17 -- 02.26.18 -- 09.03.17no added MSGthe green curry is similiar to Thai Kitchen as has: green chili, lemongrass, garlic, salt, galangal, shrimp paste, kaffer lime peel, coriander seed, pepper, cumin, tumericred: garlic, dried red chili, lemongrass, salt, shallot, galangal, shrimp paste, kaffir lime peel, pepperpanang: dried red chili, lemongrass, shallot, salt, garlic, galangal, mung bean, shrimp paste, kaffir lime peel, coriander seed, cumin, pepperThe green curry has an intense heat and I have learned to use less as I cook. My 21 year old daughter uses the red to make an excellent butter chicken. We have not used the Panang yet so I cannot speak for it.We use a lot of green and red curry in our house so to us, this was an excellent purchase.

Yum!
These were a great price and my family might be tired of curry. I am not. Lol. These are delicious and a great value. You have to make a lot of curry to use them up. These are so nice when I want to make an easy meal. I start my rice, rough chop a variety of veg, throw my tofu in an air fryer, start making the curry and by the time the rice is done everything is done and delicious. I like to grow a few Thai basil plants each summer and add in leaves to my dishes (which is also good in salad with a dressing made. With sweet chili and rice vinegar and a bit of oil)...

It’s really spicy hot
It tastes really good and pretty close to what you get at the restaurant but Got-Damn! is it spicy hot. I’m the guy that orders medium heat at restaurants. This is HOT.But it tastes good. It just hurts a little with each bit.

The BEST Thai Curry Pastes!
Mao Ploy makes my favorite Thai curry pastes, in any flavor. Clean ingredients, no soybean oil, intense flavor so a little goes a long way & a very good price for 3 tubs. My only complaint is that I wish they sold this is glass jars. The curry paste comes inside a plastic sleeve that's packaged inside the plastic container. I just cut a corner off of the sleeve, scrape out the pastr I need with a spoon, then use a rubberband to roll up the plastic sleeve, stick it back in the container & pop it in the fridge. (These curry pastes have lots of chilies in them, once you open them, they will keep without spoiling for up to a year in the refrigerator. ) If you like flavorful Thai-style curries, you will LOVE these products.

The absolute BEST!
My goodness, these are so good! Used to buy the small jars in the grocery stored and these are 1000% better. Really upped my Thai food game. Will only buy these moving forward and recommend to any cooks.
