@fredfirth3834 5 дней назад

For a long time where I lived it was all you could find. Once I found a good Asian market, though, I was happy to find Mae Ploy and Maesri, as not only were they better, but the price for what you get is more economical.

@gaivscaesar 16 дней назад

My older brother was a head chef for years, whereas I am a completely novice home cook. He made a Thai Green Curry for dinner one day when I was visiting and I was blown away. He used the mae ploy paste and wrote me a recipe I could confidently do myself when at home. he passed away a few years back but I still have his handwritten recipe framed in my kitchen and make it every few months. My supermarket stopped carrying Mae Ploy a few years back so I have to travel a bit further to get it, but i'll never use anything else.

So freakin' accurate. I watched the red curry paste video and I can't handle a ton of spice, so I still thought "ok well, I'll try Thai Kitchen's red curry paste".... NO spice at all, barely ANY flavor. My god it's such a disappointment. That chili warning is such a lie. Taco Bell's mild sauce is spicier. Feels like such major false advertising lol

Makes sense that Mae Ploy won. Here in Seattle every Thai restaurant uses that brand. I use it when I’m really craving green curry, but I use much more than recommended. Unfortunately, it’s still not even close to the fresh paste in Thailand. Then again, nothing ever is.

How much more do you use?

@friendosal6017 18 дней назад

@@ChiliCrisp88 About 1 1/2x the recommended amount. I think when Thai restaurants ask for preferred spiciness, the recommended amount is "medium" and I'd imagine they adjust up and down from there. 50% more makes it "hot," yet not inedible

@friendosal6017 18 дней назад

p.s., with more paste, there is also more flavor from the aromatics - not just heat. I am a nerd and keep galangal, lemongrass stalks and chilis in the freezer. If you are making this for friends or family who have different tolerances for heat/spiciness, I'd advise to add more aromatics if you have them, plus a bit more sweet (1t cane or brown sugar), a bit more umami (about 1 t fish sauce or 1 t soy) and then offer thinly sliced chilies as an optional garnish for the heat-seekers :)

In the mid 2000s in the UK as a student from Sri Lanka I couldn’t make proper Sri Lankan curry.

It was expensive the curry can as a student but I loved this brand. I miss those days but can’t find it in SL Mploy. As making green curry from scratch is very time consuming.

I have had Maersi too but returned to Aroyo-D for red and then picked it for green after tour red curry testing video. I know that took a lot of time and work to make all of that delicious food.

I am lucky, because I have an international grocer close by (Global Foods in greater STL). I can get galangal, lemongrass, cane sugar pucks, Thai basil, a zillion kinds of Asian eggplant, fish sauce, etc. I have used your recipe for homemade green curry paste and it's an all-afternoon adventure. It is fun and meditative, yet the prepared curry pastes are such excellent shortcuts. I just checked and have about 2T left of Mae Ploy in my fridge... it's my favorite, too. I always keep some galangal and lemongrass in the freezer (as well as red and green Thai chilis), so I can adjust to taste. It's amazing to be able to create restaurant-quality curry in your own kitchen. Excellent channel! Great and fun episode.

From my point of view, all the work you put into these comparisons is worth it. I hope your numbers reflect that, but I really enjoy these.

@olivier2553 20 дней назад

I think that Mae Ploy came second to Arroy-D is because when you make Green curry for you to eat, instead of making a comparison taste test, you adjust the taste while cooking, so you end up with something you prefer. It would have taken a lot of time, but you could have adjusted the sugar and fish sauce depending on what is already in the curry paste, I was about to ask about Lobo, because I think it is quite common in France (but I don't cook thai food when visiting France :)

@AlwaysonTayaTime 20 дней назад

If I don't have a homemade batch I've processed before (I can it instead of freeze it after), I go with arroy D and roast some shrimp paste. Just came back from another month in Thailand, it's close enough. Heat of the paste doesn't matter, I throw in 10 birds eye's anyway to a pot.

Lobo is the most popular brand of Thai paste and seasoning you can find in Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam) actually, I've been using this for years and it performed well. Another takeaway for me it the package instructions - which was true with what you said in this video - I used your recipe and adjust without really reading into the instructions. Then I did follow through with what the package told me, it was not as good, and it also told me to add things I thought should not have been there. I've bought some paste, made (kinda) fresh from a place called Nittaya Curry in Bangkok - can't wait to try it out and compare with store-bought paste.

@tanluwils1736 22 часа назад

I was lucky enough to begin my Thai food cooking journey with Mae Ploy over a decade ago. It's actually harder to find where I live now (still Northeast US), so I've had to rely on Aroy-D. They both seem to have better ingredients than the other options I've seen on the market. But I'm also a bigger fan of Mae Ploy because it seems to have more going on rather than just being spicy. I'm also a shrimp paste fan. Happy it won this time!

Mae Ploy is the mother of all curries! Always and forever, lol.

Great video, loved to see many people taste and give their opinion. Only downside? Now I am literally CRAVING green curry!! Luckily, I have a tub of Mae Ploy in my fridge, so it will happen soon :D

I happened to have made green curry for myself and my BF tonight, and as he doesn't want to have carbs at night he really ate it without anything else🤣(while I ate it with homemade bread). I switched to Mae Ploy because of your last test. I used to use SIAM, which is quite good as well but costs a bit more. I tried Nam Jai before but it's too salty, though I don't follow a recipe strictly so that may not be objective. With your recommendation I'm going to give Lobo a go after I finish my Mae Ploy.
