## Description

Tom Yum Soup Base! Maesri Tom Yam Paste makes it easy to make Tom Yum soup, a favorite due to its hot and sour taste, at home. Just add a few tablespoons to boiling water and you have hot and sour soup! Add Coconut milk to have the famous creamy tom kahh soup. What is Tom Yum? Literally, the words tom yum are derived from two Tai words: tom and yam. Tom refers to boiling process (soup, in this case). Yam refers to a kind of Lao and Thai spicy and sour salad. Thus, tom yum is a Lao and Thai hot and sour soup. Indeed, tom yum is characterised by its distinct hot and sour flavours, with fragrant herbs generously used in the broth. Easy Tom Yum Soup Recipe Ingredients 4 Tbsp Maesri Tom Yum Paste 1 Tbsp Chopped Garlic 2 Diced Tomatoes 2 Celery Stocks Chopped 4 Mushrooms Sliced 1 Chicken Thigh or Breast 4 large Prawns or Shrimp 1 Chicken Bullion 4 1/2 Cups Water 2 Tbsp Pepper 1 Tsp Salt Cilatro Boil water in a pot and mix in Maesri Tom Yum Paste. Add garlic, tomatoes, celery, mushrooms, & meats and bring to another boil. Add chicken bullion, salt and pepper and boil for 10 minutes. Top with cilantro and serve.

Review: True authentic ingredients - This Maesri Tom Yum paste is sooo good and takes the place of going to the Asian store for ALL the necessary, unusual items needed for Tom Yum soup! I was truly surprised how GOOD and AUTHENTIC the paste was..and EASY! You add as much as you like and then freeze the remainder in its container. Delicious! Good as a rub on chicken, sea food, beef and pork.
Review: This is the stuff - Tom Yum and Tom Kha are my favorite soups in the world, but they are notoriously difficult to make well at home. Enter Maesri Tom Yum Paste. I admit I was a little skeptical about this. I LOVE all of Maesri's curry pastes, but this looked like it might just be a green curry paste with a different label...nope. It has significant difference in flavor that make for a perfect Tom Yum soup. Served at a dinner party and everyone was amazed. I felt like one of those folks on old commercials that had a "secret" ingredient. Folks even wanted to take home the leftovers. One caution. It takes a whole tub of this stuff to make a gallon of soup, and you are going to want a gallon of it once it's made, so you might want to buy a couple at a time.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How spicy hot is this on a scale of 1 to 10?**
A: I have been consuming Tom Yum pastes for decades and this brand is by far the worst.  As far as the heat factor, its not considerably spicy hot, just plain awful.

**Q: How much sodium is in this?**
A: 320 mg sodium per 1 Tbsp serving.

**Q: Should this be refrigerated after opening?**
A: Yep!  (PS This comes in one large pouch package that can be a little tricky to get back into the can and into the fridge without making a mess)

**Q: How much soup base does this make, volume, not "servings"??**
A: I don't know for sure, but I would imagine quite a lot. 
In a good-sized pot of soup, at least 3 to 4 quarts... I used only a few tablespoons of it.  It is very spicy.

Tom Yum and Tom Kha are my favorite soups in the world, but they are notoriously difficult to make well at home. Enter Maesri Tom Yum Paste. I admit I was a little skeptical about this.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not bad …
*by A***X on September 14, 2023*

Once opened , the paste is contained in a plastic pouch. You can then transfer it to the plastic enclosed container . I read a review of complaint of its bad packaging. It is indeed not! The paste needs to be contained in a plastic pouch during storage/ handling/ shipping . It is best packaged the way it is. Once received cut plastic bag and transfer to container. Now the taste: I find it not sour enough for me. This really is a just a base. I would recommend you adding tamarind powder etc my fav is Knorr tamarind powder available here at Amazon. The soup is easy to make. Start with a sauce pan. Pour water as you would like to the servings as you wish . For example myself , I put 4-6 cups of water in pan. Boil the water, add heaping tablespoons of paste in. Start with 2. Then add 1 teaspoon of tamarind powder . Add more if you wish to the desired sourness. Then add 2 stalks of celery, add 1-2 small Roma size tomatoes, then any veggies you wish such as mushrooms, egg plant, pineapple etc. I find the more veggies the better it taste because it add flavor to the end soup. Usually in the summer with plenty of veggies in the garden growing , I add things like snap peas, Asian egg plant, green or yellow bean( cut it up), cilantro, bean sprout etc . Then add your protein such as tofu, salmon , or shrimp, slices of pork if you’d like etc. If you want it spicy add a 1/2 -1 whole Thai chili or any chili sauce such as sambal oelek / chili garlic sauce etc. You will have a hot, savory and delicious soup! Not bad at all for an easy base to the Tom yum soup.
