House Foods Vermont Curry, Curry with Touch of a Apple and Honey (Hot, 8.1 oz (230g) x 2 Pack)

This is a great curry brick. In a dutch oven with some potatoes and carrots cones out amazingly well. Pairs perfectly with rice and chicken.

I've only ever had the S&B curry rouxs because I live in the upper Midwest where you don't generally see any other brands and I wanted to try a different oneto see if they're as good. This one is definitely a little different than what I'm used to, it's got a slightly more sweet and savory flavor than S&B and less curry spice taste to it. It's still delicious and I think I'd order this brand again in the future. Even though it says hot, I'd put it on the same heat level as S&B's hot flavor, so not very hot at all.

It has gluten and MSG but it's made in Japan without nearly as many chemically modified ingredients as in the US. Is there a difference? Yes. One of our family members has food sensitivities and is gluten free but this product does not cause sickness or irritation or discomfort.

The best

My husband and I were stationed in Japan for a few years, and this is the only “store bought” curry my husband and I will eat because is reminds us of Japan. All the flavors of Japan. It’s great with just simple shredded chicken, and great with all the added veggies.

Not bad tasting. But it is not, by any stretch I'd think, HOT. Black pepper is hotter than this stuff. I'm not one of those super hot loving people, Tabasco is my upper preferred range. And this is just not triggering any sensation of hot at all.

I can't say enough good things about Vermont Curry. Sweet, savory, customizable. I like to blend it in with other roux blocks, but it always ends up in the pot.

We found this brand from the Morimoto Recipe and we love it!The Hot is not american hot. My husband loved to get spicy level 10 at Coco Curry. this would equate to a spice 2 or 3, if that helps as any kind of reference point.Best with a fried pork cutlet, carrots, onions, potatoes, and green beans!
