None of the Patac simmer sauces taste alike. And, IMO, none taste
like generic curry powder. If you buy something at the store called
curry powder, you have no idea what you are getting. The few I've
tried have a nasty after taste that I do not find in the simmer sauces
or in the various named curry powders from Penzeys. I like the Patac
sauces. Currently, Costco is carrying a Korma in the dairy case --
just caught a glance at tit in didn't take in the brand.
