Angkor Lemongrass Cooking Paste - 6 oz

I used it for my first attempt to make Tom Kha soup, and this little paste delivered all the flavors I am used to tasting in the Thai restaurants. My soup was not as good as the restaurant versions of course, but the flavors were there. After that I used it as a base for a marinade for fish, and it turned out pretty good. Then used the leftover marinade as a base for a sauce for the fish, and that was great.

Was actually good

I've never used lemongrass paste before. But I love lemongrass. This is a lot easier to get than fresh lemongrass.

The flavor is very good. I make Thai pork meatballs

I was hoping that it would have more of a lemongrass flavor but it was still good. of course nothing beats fresh lemongrass..

Too spicy for me!!! I was JUST looking for the lemongrass flavor but this had EXTRA spice!!! If it was JUST the lemongrass flavor it would be better or if BOTH were offered!!!

Too salty for me. I wouldn't buy it again. Perhaps ok if you mix with other unsalted items.

Even though lemongrass is the leading ingredient, I could not taste or smell it. Was looking for something without additives.

I bought two containers of this. One for me and one for a gift. It tasted so bad I didn't even pass on the gift. It had very little lemongrass taste and it was strong on garlic and some other foul smell. Would not buy again.

Do not buy! I bought for a recipe which I ended up not making. I put the jar in my cupboard only to discover a few weeks later it was oozing. I had never opened it so I feel it had been previously opened or was not properly sealed. Obviously I didn't feel it was consumable and it was too late to return it. I am out, not only the cost of the item but also the shipping....about 16 bucks! Never again!
