Paste 2 Perfection Limited - Dilishque Curry Paste

General information

We bring the paste to the market because, for us it’s about more than producing a good curry. It’s about quality time with loved ones; it’s about eating better and knowing what you put in your body and your children’s bodies; it’s about sharing knowledge; it’s about sharing great memories; it’s about sharing ideas; it’s about having time and it’s about being happy!

People are busy earning money, being with family and doing all the chores of life in between. Fitting in play, fun and food often means cutting corners. This can lead us to eat food which we know isn’t the best for us.
We believe our Dilishque curry paste provides an alternate, quicker solution to cooking good food from scratch. Providing tasty food, without added colourings, preservatives, flavours or sugar in about 40 minutes.

We would like to share with the reasoning behind how the curry paste was named. We wanted it be a name that meant something to us and also for it to sound both western and eastern, a fusion if you like! In line with what we wanted to create as a product. This was easy in theory. After many discarded attempts my mum remembered something I used to say as a child. I would say something was “delish” a descriptive word many people have used when talking of flavours I’m sure. But the difference came when, with my mum’s love of France and the French language, she tried to teach me to say some words in French. I started to, as kids do, say other words in a French way that is when delish became delishque. That’s the western part sorted! Mum said she always thought that the word delishque had an ‘Indian” feel to it as the word for “heart is ‘dil’ and ‘ishq’ means love. Therefore we choose to call our curry paste ‘Dilishque’, as what could be a better name for a food that I love with all my heart, Yummmy!

The branding followed the same line of thinking. Us, and a fusion of western, namely Yorkshire British and Indian (Gujarati).

The colours of our brand are from the colours of the flag of India and the White Rose of Yorkshire is embedded into the wheel in the flag. The scenery is also of a view of Yorkshire that we see every day, and one that is very dear to us.

We bring to you an Indian pantry in a pot: a 50g pot of curry paste and dry spices. These two small yet powerful components will help you make a great tasting curry. The beauty of this product that its versatility lends itself to meat, veg, fish and seafood, eggs, pasta, rice and sauces. We provide instructions to help you out but you are free to experiment.

In an effort to take away the laborious action of preparing all the different ingredients for creating your own curry masterpiece. Dilishque curry paste helps you make the same masterpiece with only 4 other ingredients in less than 40 minutes. We say this a lot, no added flavours, colours, preservatives or added sugars. We are driven to encourage people to know what they eat.

With versatility ranging from spicing up your family barbeque to adding a kick to Italian classics, Dilishque curry paste can be used by a novice through to the more experienced chef to delight family and friends at the dinner table.

We make the paste at home. This way, we know that we pick the best quality ingredients.

We installed a new kitchen and had the local Environmental Department come to the house and approve our methods and processes. Our product checked out and so did we. The next step was to start producing the paste and bring it to the market.

A full pot of the Dilishque curry paste is intended to be used in the recipe provided on the inside of the box. There are other uses where only a little of the Dilishque paste is required. In this case, just use what you require replace the lid and store and re-use till the Best Before Date. Use after this date may result in milder muted flavours as the potency of the ingredients will be compromised with age.

We prepare the fresh ingredients by washing them before Dilishque curry paste is diligently prepared and hand potted into the individual pots. The utmost care is taken in assuring the highest quality of the product is maintained at each stage of the production process.

ALLERGENS!

Dilishque is made in our home kitchen. At this time, the kitchen is strictly prepared for the sole purpose of the making the paste. There are nevertheless various allergen containing ingredients present at all times, like milk and other dairy products, wheat, nuts, sesame seeds, and mustard to name but a few and, for this reason we cannot and do not guarantee that Dilishque curry paste is 100% Allergen Free.

That is to say “MAY CONTAIN ALLERGENS.”

Made for you.

We believe that anyone who wants to take control of what they are putting into their own and their loved ones body can use Dilishque curry paste as there are no artificial colours, flavours, preservatives, added sugars or sweeteners in our product.
Whether you’re a young adult cooking for the first time or a busy parent cooking a fresh meal for the family, Dilishque can add that extra dimension making a quicker meal, extra special.

Instead of stocking several ingredients with shorter shelf lives, Dilishque provides you with your Indian Pantry in a Pot, with a great shelf life. Perfect for the savvy shopper or for those people who cook infrequently.

Do you spend hours in the kitchen preparing new meals for your family? Include Dilishque in the menu. This cuts out a lot of prep time and multiplies the family time, “win, win”.

We want young adults moving away from home and having to, in many cases, cook for themselves for the first time to use Dilishque curry paste to set up good eating patterns by making it easier and more possible for them to create tasty meals and that they have the choice to include their choice of ingredients and preferred foods. This can be for reasons of health as it is very versatile whether vegan, vegetarian or meat eater.

Busy parents who want to make their children freshly cooked meals every day or just more often can do so more easily. We don’t expect everyone to be wanting to eat curried food on a daily basis but if like us, you have been brought up on that diet or decided that, that is the type of food of preference for you then Dilishque is for you.

For those of us that may not cook often and find that when they look in their cupboards ingredients are no longer at their best. Instead of having to stock numerous ingredients may find it less hassle and in the long run a less expensive way of doing things.

For those of us, that cook all the time and would never have any ingredients perish would mean that we are spending a lot of time in the kitchen, much like my mother used to do when I was young. Dilishque may give you more time to do other things.
