Red Thai Curry Gourmet Spice in a glass

Not for the faint of heart: the red Thai curry makes your tongue tingle. Of course, you can use the curry simply as a spice powder. But stirred with 3 -4 tablespoons of hot water, the spice preparation also makes a 1-A curry paste.

You studied the recipe of our red Thai curry carefully and stumbled over the galangal root? Don't worry, you're not alone in that. We're happy to give you a brief overview of what this ginger plant is all about. Unlike ginger, the tuber of galangal brings a much warmer, more resinous and peppery note. Since the spice is particularly popular in Thai cuisine, it is also often called "Thai ginger".
