Quote from: ELW on January 25, 2012, 11:48 AMI would like to know what makes eastern Star CP, different to any of the other 10kg catering cp. It's not available here, but is at least 20% more expensive than Rajah Gold/ King Curry / Ship Brand etc. I would imagine it's superior somehow, going on the price alone. The catering brands are also unavailable in retail sizes/outlets, which leaves me wondering what they taste like(restaurant taste??), albeit it the small amounts used in a mix powder. Has anyone ever bought & used a 10kg catering CP for home use?RegardsELWHi ELWRepeating myself again, but still don't get the idea of using ES Chinese curry powder in BIR, but hey... I can't imagine anybody buying a catering 10kg tin of curry powder for home use.But very interesting you mention Ship brand MCP, where have you seen this for sale in the UK, I'd love to get hold of some, purely nostalgia, because I remembered the big green tins in the restaurants when I was a kid, but couldn't remember the name until I asked around a few old Chef/Owner's and they said it was Ship but they can't get it anymore and haven't for years. For me this would fine tune and complete my 70's curry base cheers Chewy
