Organic food supplier Biona has launched a new organic Thai Red Curry Paste which is available to retailers from January onwards in 125g jars with an RSP of £3.39.
The new medium-hot paste is made to a traditional recipe for “a bold and vibrant taste” and features high-quality, organic ingredients including chilli, garlic, ginger and lemongrass. Unlike many curry pastes on the market that contain shrimp, Biona’s recipe is also fully vegan. It also replaces sugar with agave syrup, which will suit those consumers looking for healthier options.
According to Mintel’s 2024 World Cuisines report, more than half (54%) of British consumers say they’re cooking from scratch more than they used to. South-east Asian cooking sauces in particular are in strong growth, surging in both value (by 28.4%) and volume (up 11.9%).
