Thai Curry
Thai curry refers to dishes in Thai cuisine that are made with various types of curry paste; the term can also refer to the pastes themselves. A Thai curry dish is made from curry paste, coconut milk or water, meat, seafood, vegetables or fruit, and herbs. Dave, our assistant winemaker and staff chef, uses a Thai green curry paste he found at a local market. This green curry paste adds that wonderful heat flavor of a curry without being overly spicy.
