[ 2 Packs ] House Foods Vermont Curry Hot 8.11 Oz (230g)

All the Youtube videos mentioned using this brand over the others. I could only find it online though. Takeaway: This is so much tastier than the brands available in the grocery store! I'll continue to purchase here! :-)

Item arrived even earlier than the rest of our order. 'Hot' isn't our usual for premade curry rue, as we generally prefer to add our own heat earlier in the cooking, but we love combining Vermont Curry with another style like Golden or other traditional flavors when making large batches.

I actually prefer this item over s&b golden curry and have bought it several times.

I stumbled across this product down a Reddit rabbit hole and, being a lover of Vermont, had to try it for the silliness and it really is delicious, will buy again.

When I saw this curry and knew how well-known Vermont is for it's apple cider doughnuts, maple syrup, cheese, ice cream, and most importantly curry, I knew I had to try it. The long tradition of traditional New England curries is present in this mix. Take a bite and you'll be transported to the Fall colors and crisp air of a cool Vermont lunch, add some microbrew and you'll be transported to to the frosty hills and your father's, father's, father's curry. I jest - it's pretty good. I am usually an S&B Golden guy, but I noticed a lot of folks in Japan added graded apple and honey to their S&B mix, so I thought I would check this out. It's sweeter than S&B, but not crazy sweet. I liked it and my teens kids really liked it. I would definitely get it again. As per usual with Japanese curry the "hot" is quite mild. If you know what Japanese curry is, I seriously doubt you would be disappointed. I am still working my way through different brands but so far, I would put this equal or a close second to S&B.

Japanese food heat is generally rated on a scale from 0-5. For whatever reason, the curry labeled hot is actually only a 3 out 5 (what most people in America would consider medium). My preference for heat balance is actually #4, but I haven't been able to find it for sale on Amazon. Anyone that wants really hot curry should look at the #5 if you can find it. If you like heat, you'll need to make some amendments to the recipe.

So far these are my favorite curry roux blocks and the flavor to effort ratio is off the charts

I was a S&B curry fan until they switched/changed there recipe, I am highly allergic to mustard, so reading labels is a must, this brand is really good
