About Panang curry paste

Panang curry paste is a rich, aromatic blend hailing from Thai cuisine, known for its bold and balanced flavors. It typically includes ingredients such as dried red chili peppers, lemongrass, galangal, kaffir lime zest, garlic, shallots, coriander seeds, and peanuts. These ingredients create its signature sweet and slightly nutty profile with a hint of spice. Packed with herbs and spices, Panang curry paste contains antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds from ingredients like turmeric and chili. However, it's often high in sodium due to added salt or shrimp paste, which is something to consider for those watching their sodium intake. When incorporated into dishes, it pairs beautifully with coconut milk and enhances the flavor of proteins and vegetables, bringing depth to a meal while offering aromatic benefits. Its bold taste sets it apart as a staple in Thai cooking, perfect for creating hearty, flavorful curries.
