Michelin award-winning chef launches range of Thai sauces

Critically acclaimed and Michelin award-winning chef, Sebby Holmes, has launched a range of Thai street food sauces and pastes, allowing spice and Southeast Asian food fans alike to cook authentic, gourmet Thai dishes in the comfort of their own home.

PAYST is a premium range of fifteen easy-to-use Thai dipping sauces, stir-fry sauces and curry pastes, including vegan-friendly options, that are made fresh in the UK. Payst brings the tastes of Thailand to kitchens across the nation, without compromising flavour or freshness, in a matter of minutes.

Developed by Sebby Holmes – the mastermind and Head Chef behind four-time Michelin Bib Gourmand-winning restaurant, Farang – the PAYST range includes everything essential to transport your kitchen to the street food markets of Bangkok.

A PAYST for every occasion

Fancy a fresh curry after a hard day’s work? For a curry in a hurry, the PAYST Curry Pastes offer everything from the classic Green and Red Curry Pastes through to the more adventurous Jungle Curry and Gaeng Gatti Curry Pastes. Simply heat and stir your selected paste in a pan of hot oil for two minutes, add your meat and veg of preference, and plate up with rice or noodles.

Looking to stir it up at dinner time? Treat yourself to one of PAYST’s stir-fry sauces to create the perfect Pad Thai. Throw your vegetables and meat into a pan, heat it up and stir in your preferred PAYST stir-fry sauce for that true Thai taste.

If dinner is already sorted but a touch of Thailand is wanted, any meal or snack can be spiced up with one of PAYST’s dipping sauces. From Sweet Chill Sauce to the moreish Spicy Burnt Chilli, these versatile dipping sauces can be used for everything from traditional dipping sauce and salad dressing, to soups and stir-fry for that extra zingy oomph.

That authentic Thai taste with no compromise

Each Payst product is lovingly crafted in the Farang kitchen by Sebby and the team, freshly bottled and delivered to stores and homes across the nation. The Payst product range provides the perfect opportunity for Brits to discover the diverse flavours of Thai cuisine and experience authentic Thai flavours in the comfort of their own home.

Born from Sebby’s passion for Thai cuisine and experimenting with flavours and ingredients, Payst is now available in stores across the UK, including the likes of Harrods, Selfridges, Daylesford Farm Shop, and straight from the kitchen at Farang.

The range of Thai-inspired sauces and pastes are made with the freshest ingredients, sourced from top farms across Thailand and the UK. All products are completely free from preservatives and artificial ingredients, including the only fresh Thai curry pastes available on the UK market.

Sebby Holmes, Founder of PAYST and Farang, said: “Covid played a huge role in the birth of Payst. When the country was forced into lockdown and we had to shut our doors, we very quickly pivoted the business to keep bringing the flavour under the belief that just because you can’t leave your home doesn’t mean you can’t explore through taste!

“The day the hard lockdown was announced my team and I picked up the phones and rang every booking we had over the coming weeks and months. We offered everyone the chance to pick up their meal or deliver it to their door if they were local enough to us. We were very lucky that there was so much support from the local community. People kept coming and wanting more of our food.

“Customers repeatedly asked if they could get our sauces as a side to use later in their own meals; and that’s how Payst was born.

“This is the start of a much wider range focused on bringing the tastes of Thailand to every kitchen across the nation, without compromising flavour or freshness.”
