Laksa Paste

Laksa Paste is a Southeast Asian cooking paste used to build the bold, fragrant base of laksa and other noodle soups. It usually blends chilies, aromatics, spices, and sometimes shrimp or dried seafood, giving dishes their signature spicy, savory flavor. Nutritionally, it is a concentrated seasoning rather than a main food, so a small amount adds a lot of flavor. It can be quite high in 9, so it is best used sparingly. Because it is so flavorful, a little goes a long way, which can help keep meals satisfying without needing much added fat or sugar.
