Was the recipe for Yellow Coconut Curry changed? The latest batch has a very different flavor and consistency, and we miss the old recipe!
Hey there @Jh415! Welcome back to the forum! ![]()
To answer your question, yes, there were some changes to the recipe for our grains-based meals. You can find the details in this forum post.
Overall, we removed quinoa and reduced flaxseed for better texture, made the Yellow Coconut Curry creamier, and added larger plant-based pieces.
So sorry to hear that you didn’t enjoy these changes, however! If you could send the batch details on your pouch to support@huel.com, along with some more detail on what you didn’t enjoy, this will help our product team improve! They’ll also be happy to help you out with a return or exchange.
the old version was SO MUCH BETTER ![]()
So sorry to hear you’re not vibing with the new recipe! We take all feedback on board here, so if you could reach out to support@huel.com with your batch details so we can gather some data and improve, that would be awesome!
I know the post is old , but I’d like to weigh in as well. The old formula was signifigantly better it was perfectly balanced , the flavor was robust but not overbearing it had ummami but also had a few raisens to balance it out. Distinict yet non offensive , it was a really balanced meal with the old formula
The new “creamier” version is overbearing. Whatever they use to make it “creamier” that flavor overtakes everything else and gives a strong one note that is off putting. You don’t taste curry or any other spices all you taste is the “creamer” which ruins the flavor and overtakes everything else.
I thought that the batch i had purchased somehow got mixed up with the Mac N Cheese , but it seems thats just the new formula. It just taste like the worst parts of the mac N cheese recipe added into the curry and removing the best parts of the curry formula. Leaving you with this very pungent one note almost sickely flavor profile for the “new formula’.
I would love an option to purchase the old formula if its available . I can’t see myself subscribing to huel with this new formula.
I agree that the old recipe was so much better. It was even comfort food for me. I can not stomach the new recipe. It’s very unfortunate that they changed it.
I will try it again but will need to buy those raisins too add in, that was the reason I ate it to begin with.
Not a fan of the cardboard chunks, gotta let it steep longer to get them into the right texture.
Thanks for your feedback, all! (@LMG462 and @Ndiz as well!)
