Frequently Asked Questions
Which Thai spice do I need to cook Thai food at home?
Five essential spices are required to create authentic Thai cuisine at home. These include black pepper, turmeric, coriander seed, coriander and cinnamon. Each ingredient is unique and plays an integral role in the creation of delicious dishes.
Cinnamon brings out the sweetness of black pepper, while white pepper enhances the savoury flavours. Curry powder is given its characteristic yellow colour by turmeric and coriander seed. Cayenne peppers provide heat and cilantro provides freshness. Finally, cinnamon adds depth and complexity to any dish.
Each of these spices is available in your local grocery. If you'd rather buy them online, the following are our recommendations.
How to Store Your Spices?
Keep them in an airtight container away from light and heat.
Place them in a dark cupboard to store spices for extended periods. This will help keep them fresh and prevent any deterioration due to oxidation.
Keep your spices out of direct sunlight and in a cool dry 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. If storing in plastic containers, make sure there is no moisture inside the container.
Check the seal every time you open and reseal it. Heat can cause moisture to spoil your product.
Don't toss out any leftover spices. Don't throw them away, instead use them in new recipes. They can be frozen to prolong their shelf-life.
Is Thai cuisine made with garlic?
Thai cuisine often uses garlic. Garlic is used often in Thai cuisine, such as soups, stir fries, curries, sauces, and salads.
In Thailand, garlic can be chopped and fried along with ginger and shallots. You can also eat it with sticky rice.
Garlic is best chopped finely and mixed with oil, chilli paste, fish sauce, lime juice and oil. This mixture is called Nam Phrik (namphrik). Nam phrik is often accompanied by grilled chicken or beef.
Almond Flour and Almond Meal: What is the Difference?
An almond meal, which can be used as an almond flour substitute, is more versatile than other almond flours because it can be used for baking and cooking, as well as making nut free dishes.
Almond flour may also contain gluten, making it difficult to digest. If you have celiac disease or another digestive disorder, it's essential to avoid gluten-free foods.
While almond flour isn't considered a "superfood" per se, it contains healthy fats, fibre, protein, and vitamin E. It's also low in calories and sodium and contains no cholesterol.
The nutritional benefits of the almond meal include magnesium, copper, iron, zinc, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, and vitamins A, B1 (thiamin), and C. In addition, it provides 25 percent of the daily value for folate, 20 percent for niacin, 15 percent for pantothenic acid, and 5 percent for riboflavin.
Because it's made from almonds, almond flour contains monounsaturated fatty acids, while almond oil contains polyunsaturated fatty acids. Both can lower LDL cholesterol and increase HDL cholesterol.
Almond flour is high in antioxidants including phenolics, flavonoids, and proanthocyanidins. These compounds prevent free radical-induced oxidative stress.
In a study published in Journal of Agricultural Food Chemistry, almond flour was found to have an antioxidant activity comparable to blueberries, cranberries or pomegranates and red wine grapes juice.
Almond flour is usually sold alongside almond milk, fortified with additional nutrients.
Can you spice up a drink?
It's amazing how spices can add flavour and flavor to food. But how do you make them come alive when used in drinks?
Spices are wonderful because they can add depth and flavor to any beverage. A dash of cinnamon and nutmeg can make any beverage more delicious, including coffee, tea, hot cocoa, and cocktails.
However, most recipes call for ground spice so you will need fresh whole spices. Although this is logical, it can be costly, time-consuming, and takes up storage space.
This is where magic happens. It's possible to transform your favorite spices into a powdered form that is easy to use with a bit of creativity. Mix them with your favorite drinks to make delicious spiced beverages.
These powders can be made in two ways. One method involves grinding whole spices into fine powder. A mortar and pestle is another method to grind the spices to a finer consistency.
You'll find it easier to make powder than whole spices, regardless of the method. You won't run short of powder, and it keeps well.
You can also experiment with different spices to create new flavor combinations. For example, you could combine peppermint and spearmint leaves to make minty water. For spicy ginger tea, use ginger and cardamom capsules.
Once you have mastered the art of making powdered spices you can use that same technique for herbs. You can use basil, rosemary and thyme as common herbs.
The possibilities are limitless. You can use powdered spice to enhance the flavour of your drinks or dishes like soups, salads, or pasta.
What is the most popular ingredient in Thai cooking?
Thailand's two main ingredients form the heart of all Thai dishes. They are rice and curry. This is how you get an unforgettable flavor.
This combination is known in Thailand as "Khao Pa Krai," meaning "the best dish." It happens when these two basic foods are combined and make a delicious, irresistible dish.
The same goes for life. You can achieve great success if you combine the right two ingredients - hard work and perseverance.
As Khao Pad Krai did, passion and purpose can be combined to make you successful. When you combine these ingredients, you can create something remarkable.
If you find yourself craving Thai food, keep in mind that Thai food is more than rice and curry. You'll be amazed at how much fun you can have experimenting with different ingredients!

How To
How to cut Shiitake Mushrooms
The shiitakes grow well. There's nothing wrong about them. They are fine. But how can we make them cut without hurting ourselves? We've tried everything. Even the scissors. But they keep slipping out of our hands. What is the deal?
Well, there's a trick for that. Place a rubber band on the stem of the mushroom and twist it tight. You won't slip or cut yourself.
You might think that it seems too simple. It is. It's also extremely effective.
Because the rubber band makes the stem slippery it is easy to pick it up. Plus, it doesn't hurt to hold the stem tightly.
Now, go ahead and try it. It will be so much easier to cut mushrooms than ever before.
