Shan - Ginger Garlic Paste (10.93 oz) Traditional Taste Enhancing Cooking Paste from Fresh Ground Ginger and Garlic - Suitable for Vegetarians - Airtight Glass Jar

I got the Shan Ginger-Garlic Paste 10.93 oz thinking that it would be a perfect ingredient for a recipe that I cook often that calls for Garlic and Ginger. However, when I used it, it doesn't give off the flavor or smell of either ingredient. It doesn't taste bad so I will continue to use it - overall a great idea but not a very good execution. - sorry - lets try again!

This brand was recommended to me by someone from India, so I knew it was good - and they were right! I've been using it for various Indian and Pakistani dishes, and it's exactly what I was looking for, as it brings that jazz to the dishes I was missing.

This comes in handy when I make dishes that call for ginger and garlic paste. And the 11oz jar is a good buy compared to buying the pastes separately in smaller containers. It brings a lot of flavor when we make chicken korma and chicken curry dishes. I definitely recommend.

The Ginger Garlic Paste is pretty good and makes cooking a lot easier. The flavor is decent and it definitely saves time compared to making fresh paste at home. I do feel the taste isn't exactly the same as freshly ground ginger and garlic, it's a little milder, but still works well in most dishes. The convenience makes it worth keeping in the kitchen, though I use it more for quick meals than special recipes

Added great flavor to the paneer makhani i made. And it's pretty safe to say that the jar is not gonna break during shipping; pretty sure it was the best packaged thing I've ever received. I don't think it was spicy, but I added a small amount to a sauce, so hard to say what larger amounts would do.

Shan Ginger Garlic Paste is a real time-saver in the kitchen. The paste has a smooth texture and a balanced mix of ginger and garlic that works well in curries, stir-fries, marinades, and everyday cooking. Compared to making fresh paste, this is much more convenient—no peeling or grinding required. The flavor is fairly close to homemade, though not quite as pungent or vibrant. If you're cooking a quick weeknight meal, it does the job perfectly, but for special dishes I still prefer freshly ground ginger and garlic. Shelf life is another plus—it stays good in the fridge for a few months, especially if handled carefully with a clean spoon each time. The preservatives do their job, but some people might find that a drawback if they prefer all-natural products. Overall, it's a great pantry staple when you want speed and consistency. Not a complete substitute for fresh paste, but definitely reliable for everyday cooking.

Really handy to have!! Saves peeling garlic and ginger as well as grating it. Taste is great with shrimp (that's how I've used it so far but I will try adding it to home made salad dressing next time

I never received my order but I got a refund. I just reordered it and I have high hopes for this brand. I ordered it based on the high star rating and good reviews. I understand things are crazy with shipping right now.

It came as expected. Shan always has the best taste from others and Walmart delivered it on time. If it could be in plastic bottle it would be more nice

A must-have for anyone cooking South Asian cuisine. The paste is smooth, flavorful, and smells incredibly fresh. It handles high-heat sautéing perfectly and adds a great depth of flavor to both chicken and beef dishes. Highly recommended!
