Frequently Asked Questions
What spices are commonly used in Thai cuisine?
Thai cuisine is well-known for its rich flavour profiles. These delicious flavours are made from unique and flavorful ingredients that make many delicious dishes.
Common ingredients in Thai cuisine include galangal and kaffir lime leaves, chilies, garlic, chillies, chillies, ginger, coriander and cumin.
Each spice adds to Thai cuisine's distinct flavour profile. You will often find lemongrass in soups, curries and stews. Galangal gives dishes a peppery flavor; chilies add a spicy kick to dishes. Shrimp paste adds umami depth to dishes. Coriander adds a mild yet fragrant aroma to dishes. Cumin adds a smokey flavour to dishes. Turmeric gives dishes a bright yellow hue.
Together, these spices combine to create complex flavour profiles unique to Thai cuisine. Mixing spices together can make dishes both tasty and aromatic. You can bring Thai flavors to your kitchen by stocking up on these spices.
What's the difference between cooking whole and with ground spices? Ground Spices?
There are no significant differences in the cooking of whole and ground spices. All spices can be ground once they have been harvested. There is no quality difference.
The price difference is however significant. Because of the labor involved in making whole spices, they cost more. However, the flavor is worth it.
When you buy bulk spices, you may get additional discounts. You might get a discount if your entire bag is of cinnamon sticks.
This is true for cloves, ginger and cardamom. If you purchase these spices in bulk, you may be able to save money.
Ground spices don't last as long as whole spices. Ground spices quickly lose their potency due to oxidation.
We recommend buying whole spices because they add flavor to your recipes.
You can make delicious curry using whole turmeric, instead of ground turmeric. You can also grind whole coriander leaves to make a spice mix for chicken dishes.
It takes time to grind spices. It makes sense to purchase large quantities of whole spices when you are buying them. So that you don’t run out of spices, it’s a smart move.
What are the 11 spices of Indian cooking?
The eleven spices of Indian cuisine are coriander seeds, cumin seeds, fennel seeds, mustard seeds, nigella seeds, black pepper, cloves, cinnamon sticks, dry red chili powder, turmeric, and cardamom.
These ingredients can be found used in almost every recipe. These spices lend a unique flavour to dishes such dal (lentils), curries chutneys pickles rice, bread and sweets.
For health reasons, spices are also beneficial. One example is turmeric, which helps fight cancer cells. Cloves help protect against bad breath. Black pepper decreases cholesterol. Cinnamon lowers blood pressure. And ginger aids digestion.
The spice rack is an excellent kitchen tool as it allows you to experiment and create new combinations of flavors. You have the option to make your own mixes of spices, or you can buy ready-made ones that include all the essential spices.
Some people are against adding spices to their food. They believe spices only mask natural flavor and do little to enhance them. However, it is possible to enhance the taste of your meals by adding a little salt or pepper.
Most chefs agree spices are essential to culinary art. Without them, many dishes would be bland and tasteless. You might be inspired to try something new next time you feel adventurous.
How to Store Spices
Keep them in an airtight container away from light and heat.
For longer storage, store spices in a dark cabinet. This will help preserve the spices and prevent oxidation.
Keep spices away from direct sunlight in a dry, cool place. A heater or window can cause the spice to lose its aroma and flavour.
Spices are best stored in an airtight glass jar or tin. Make sure that there is no moisture in any plastic containers you store spices in.
Check the seal every time you open and reseal it. Heat can cause moisture to spoil your product.
Do not throw away any spices that you have left over. Make sure to use leftover spices in other recipes. To extend their shelf life, you can freeze them.
