Feature Ingredient: Chinese-style Longlife Noodles
In Thailand these are popular as the noodles for Mee Sua, a Chinese-style vegetarian stir-fry. We have fresh new stock available right now, just in time for Chinese New Year. Order in the kit above or separately.
These thin yellow noodles (about the same size as angel hair pasta) are also served throughout Thailand in soups and stir-fry. They absorb flavors well and we notice that kids particularly love them. See our recipe for Thai-style Noodles Baked in Clay Pot, "Bamee Gai Op Mor Din".
Ingredients: Wheat flour, salt, water. No additives. Product of Thailand. |

RECIPE CONTEST:
Win a Pansonic Rice Cooker. Just Use Kaffir Lime Leaf Powder
Anyone familiar with Thai cooking knows that kaffir lime is an essential ingredient in so many recipes. We've offered fresh kaffir lime leaves for years, and now for the first time we can offer kaffir lime leaf powder. This is fresh harvest, just picked and dried a few weeks ago. The powder retains all of the aroma and flavor of the fresh leaves.
We discovered that kaffir lime leaf powder adds wonderful flavor to all sorts of non-Thai recipes, such as bread, pasta, meatballs, it's even a very popular way of flavoring vodka.
Order a package of this powder now, develop a recipe using it, then send us the recipe via email (whatever it is, however big or small). Next month we'll draw one name at random and send that person a free Panasonic rice cooker.
We'd love to know what recipes you can develop using kaffir lime leaf powder. Our 1 oz package is a large amount (about 4 heaping tablespoons). Just a dash of this goes a long way. Included in our Valentines Kit above, or order separately. Product of USA.
