Eyai Hentak Fermented Fish Paste - 150g

Experience the authentic taste of Manipur with Eyai Hentak Fermented Fish Paste. This traditional delicacy, deeply rooted in Manipuri culture, is crafted using naturally fermented fish (Ngari), garlic, ginger, and a blend of locally sourced herbs. Hentak is not just a food item; it's a culinary heritage passed down through generations, known for its rich aroma and distinct umami flavor.

Prepared through a natural fermentation process, this fish paste contains no artificial preservatives, ensuring you receive the purest and healthiest form of this traditional product. Fermented foods are often known for their potential probiotic benefits, supporting gut health. Eyai Hentak brings you this nutritious and flavorful paste in a convenient 150g stand-up pouch with a resealable zipper to maintain freshness.

Commonly used to enhance the flavor of various traditional stews (like Iromba, Kangsoi, and Eromba chutney) and curries, even a small amount can transform your ordinary meal into something special. It's an indispensable ingredient for authentic Manipuri and North-East Indian cooking, providing a characteristic savory punch that defines many dishes. We recommend storing it in a cool, dry place and refrigerating it after opening. Remember to use only a dry spoon to extend its shelf life.
