Mae Pranom Thai Chili Paste is an authentic chilli paste from Thailand, made according to a traditional recipe that preserves the genuine flavours of the region. Weighing 513 grams, this paste offers a rich and characteristic combination of heat and mild sweetness typical of Thai cuisine.

Mae Pranom is a brand deeply rooted in Thai traditions with a philosophy focused on quality and simplicity. By using classic methods and pure ingredients, they aim to offer a product that reflects Thailand’s authentic food culture. This chilli paste works excellently as a base in Asian cooking but is equally suitable in fusion dishes where a balanced heat and flavour richness are desired.

Active Ingredients & Science

The paste contains dried chilli peppers which form the basis of its characteristic heat. The active components of chillies, such as capsaicin, contribute to the intensity of the flavour without overwhelming. Additionally, tamarind and sugar provide a subtle sweetness and acidity, creating a harmonious balance of flavours. Refined soy oil acts as a carrier and provides a smooth consistency. The product also contains dried shrimp and shrimp paste, which contribute umami and depth to the flavour.

Benefits & Uses

• Provides an authentic touch to Thai and other Asian dishes, enhancing the flavour experience.
• Can be used as a flavour base in marinades for meat, fish, and vegetables, giving dishes a balanced heat and aroma.
• Ideal in sauces, soups, and stir-fried dishes where the chilli paste adds both flavour and colour.
• Practical size making it suitable for both home kitchens and professional cooking, thanks to its concentrated flavour profile.

Usage & Dosage

For best results, it is recommended to follow the dosage instructions on the packaging. The paste can be added in smaller amounts to control the strength of the dish, depending on the desired intensity of flavour. It can be used both as a direct seasoning during cooking or as a base in marinades. Combining with other spices and ingredients is common and can be adjusted to personal taste. The product is easy to use and provides an even distribution of flavour and heat.
