About Laksa paste

Laksa paste is a flavorful blend of herbs and spices originating from Southeast Asia, particularly Malaysia and Singapore. It serves as the foundation for laksa, a popular spicy noodle soup enjoyed across the region. Common ingredients in laksa paste include lemongrass, galangal, turmeric, garlic, shallots, dried chilies, and shrimp paste, giving it its distinctive aromatic and savory profile. While rich in vitamins and antioxidants from the fresh herbs and spices, laksa paste can be high in sodium due to added salt or shrimp paste. Some recipes may include additional oil or sugar, which can increase calorie content. Despite this, its powerful flavors allow small quantities to enhance a dish, making it a versatile option for cooking. Pairing it with fresh vegetables, lean protein, and whole grains can balance its nutritional impact and make it a healthy addition to a well-rounded meal.
