  1. Whole Foods has kosher curry pastes, but my bigger problem is kosher coconut milk! Any ideas, other than making your own? I’m personally OK with the Jay stamp (Jain “kosher”) on my coconut milk (Chokoh has a Jain veg stamp).

  2. Wow, they do! That is amazing I will have to take a look and see how it compares. Coconut milk I find pretty easily with an OU, there are at least two brands, Roland is one that you can even buy a case of on Amazon.

  3. Wow, that is awesome, I will have to try it and see how it compares. Coconut milk I find pretty easily here, Roland has it with an OU, and there is at least one other brand.
