To prepare, sauté your choice of meat and vegetables until tender. Then, add water and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and break the Golden Curry Mild blocks into the pot. Stir gently until the roux dissolves completely and the sauce thickens. Simmer for a few more minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve hot over steamed rice or with noodles for a satisfying meal. The blocks ensure consistent flavor and texture in every batch.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike curry powders that require separate thickening agents, Golden Curry blocks contain flour and fat, acting as both a flavor base and a thickener. The mild version has a lower spice level compared to medium or hot varieties, offering a gentler taste profile that is less likely to overwhelm other ingredients.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking for an easy way to prepare authentic Japanese curry will find this product very useful.
How to keep the rest
After opening, store any remaining roux blocks in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Ensure the container is well-sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect the texture and quality of the roux. Proper storage will help maintain its freshness for future use.
