Thanks for the warning...I've had a few before, but never this one...looking forward to giving it a go..

Its a Thai curry paste - I wouldn't expect it to be super hot. I can get it here - if it is super hot let us know as I may get some!

Jackfruit.

Neither my wife nor I like it.

It was given to us.

We gave it away.

Fresh ginger.
Loving it.
Had it semi dried, coated in sugar, was too strong.
But this is super, the real stuff, to cook with it.

I make candied ginger at home sometimes. I think it's quite good. Simple to make as well, slice fairly thinly, boil in a simple syrup, dip in or sprinkle with sugar on both sides, let dry on a rack. Much better than commercially made.

I like the idea of it.
But that one was too strong. Can't figure why. Not sure if that was a commercial one or not...
Maybe I should give it another try...you are right.
It is beneficial for immunity, coughing...

Found caul fat for a decent price and amount for a home cook. Now I have to decide what to make with it.

open it and take a big whiff....It's like somebody boiled a pot of eggs..

It arrived today and I opened it and took a big whiff - I thought it smelled wonderful and my mouth started watering immediately. Maybe my sense of smell is different... but then I put one crystal in my mouth. Yep - that is sulphuric rotten eggs! I absolutely trust that it will work in spicy Indian dishes and I'll be using it soon.
