Panang Curry Paste
Limit your serving size. Portion control matters here.
Panang curry paste blends chilies, peanuts, herbs, and sometimes shrimp paste into a concentrated base. Pure spices and herbs contain zero fermentable carbohydrates and remain highly compatible with sensitive digestion. Commercial jars often add wheat starch, onion powder, or sugar to stabilize texture and standardize batch consistency. Those managing IBS should verify ingredient simplicity and measure usage carefully. Using small amounts as a seasoning agent minimizes overall carbohydrate exposure.

sticky_note_2 Clinical Notes
Choose brands that explicitly state they are garlic-free and onion-free, and simmer paste thoroughly in coconut milk to dilute intensity. Avoid commercial varieties that list sugar or wheat near the top of the ingredient panel to maintain purity. Store opened containers in the refrigerator with a thin oil layer on top to preserve vibrant color and prevent drying.
