THAI GREEN CURRY PASTE

Homemade green curry paste has more vivid flavor and aromatic intensity than store-bought, not to mention the freedom to control the spice level. Sopon Kosalanan of restaurant Khao King in, Queens says, "If you get it from a can, I don't feel like it's green curry. It doesn't have the same aromas." This is the recipe he makes in big batches for his restaurant every day.
