Pantry ingredients to go with it

Frozen Shrimp
Frozen shrimp offers a convenient and versatile seafood option, capturing the briny essence of the ocean with every plump, juicy piece. Flash-frozen at their peak freshness, they bring a sweet, delicate flavor and a satisfying snap to any dish.
Coconut Flour
Coconut flour is a fine, golden powder made from dried coconut meat. Its nutty aroma and slightly sweet taste bring warmth to any recipe. Packed with fiber, it offers a wholesome texture that absorbs moisture beautifully, making it ideal for gluten-free baking.
Fresh Cilantro
Fresh cilantro, also known as coriander leaves, is a fragrant herb with a bright, citrusy flavor and a hint of spice. It adds a fresh, vibrant note to dishes and is a staple in many cuisines.
Enoki Mushrooms
Enoki mushrooms are a distinctive variety of fungi characterized by their long, slender stems and tiny white caps. Originating in East Asia, they have been a staple in traditional Chinese and Japanese cuisine for centuries. These mushrooms offer a mild, slightly sweet flavor with a subtle crunch that becomes tender upon cooking. Their texture is unique, with a satisfying snap when eaten raw and a delicate softness when cooked. Enoki mushrooms are versatile in the kitchen, holding up well in soups and stir-fries without overpowering other ingredients. They tend to absorb the flavors of the dishes they are included in, enhancing the overall taste profile without dominating it.
Fresh Mint
Fresh mint is a fragrant herb with bright green leaves and a refreshing, cooling flavor. It's widely used in both sweet and savory dishes, as well as beverages.
Evaporated Milk
Creamy and rich, evaporated milk is a concentrated form of milk where about 60% of the water has been gently cooked away. Its velvety texture and slightly sweet, caramelized flavor make it a versatile ingredient in both savory and sweet dishes.
