Question 1

Why is the weight not expressly stated in the description? I'm keen to buy but not without weight info

Accepted Answer

I ordered as per the item details, "three packs", "100 Grams".
What I actually received was one pack, weighing 16gm - including the plastic bag.
Seller states a "mistake in listing" - further down in details it says 40gm. But the 40gm is apparently gross weight before "sticks removed".
You end up with 16gm inc. the bag.

Question 2

How long do they stay fesh

Accepted Answer

As long as they arrive promptly, they stay fresh for a couple of weeks in the fridge but I usually use some immediately and then freeze the rest. They keep their flavour well when frozen and produce a much superior aroma in cooking, than buying dried leaves.

Question 3

What should they smell like?
I was expecting some sort of curry aroma, but even when "scrunched up" they don't smell of much at all?

Accepted Answer

They have a unique smell and they are an essential ingredient in some of my vegetable accompanyments to the curries I make.  The leaves should be firm and I slice them before adding to the vegetables.  I am so dependent upon them that I have now purchased a plant which sits on my window sill and I now have the very freshest curry leaves.

Question 4

What is the weight of this product? "very very light" is not a suitable answer. 10g is very very light, so is 100g frankly.

Accepted Answer

There are many answers to this question but no precise details offered. My purchase weighed 18g, leaves only, having discarded the small length of woody stem to which the leaves were attached within the (excellent) packaging. I consider this good value for money, as the produce was really fresh, and last for as long as you want, if put in the deep freeze straight away, and used as required. Wouldn't hesitate to buy again.
