thai-red-curry-paste

If you are vegetarian, gluten-free, have seafood allergies or are vegan, I have this Thai red curry paste that will definitely hit the spot! While there are very traditional ingredients in a curry paste, not everyone may be fortunate to find everything needed to keep with tradition. You can still make this with a few substitutions and have an amazing curry at the end of the cook. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS NEEDED: Safe handling of this curry paste is very important. I highly recommend disposable gloves, a separate cutting board/knife, a small bag for disposing of chili pepper stems/seeds, and a separate dish-rag for cleaning up when you are done. This will help avoid any cross-contamination. If using the mortar pestle option, gloves are recommended and a cutting board to protect your countertop. If you use a high-powered blender, be mindful that it may require more than one traditional cleaning. This is written in a way that you can halve the recipe to make a smaller batch. However, a digital scale should be used when halving the recipe.
