Frequently Asked Questions
What Herbs or Spices go Best with Potatoes
A potato is a delicious side dish for almost all meats. There are many ways to cook potatoes, other than just mashed.
From salads to casseroles, soups to pasta dishes, these versatile vegetables make tasty additions to most meals. Did you know that potatoes can be paired with many spices and herbs?
These recipes will help you spice up your next potato dish.
Can you spice up a drink?
I love how spices bring flavour to food. But how do you make spices liven up when they are added to drinks?
Spices are wonderful because they can add depth and flavor to any beverage. From coffee to tea, hot chocolate to cocktails, there's nothing more satisfying than adding a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg to a glass of wine or beer.
Most recipes call for ground spices. This means that you'll need fresh whole spice. This is sensible, but it can be expensive, time-consuming, and requires storage space.
This is where the magic happens. You can transform your favourite spices into an easy-to-use powdered form with ingenuity. Then you can mix them into your favourite beverages to create delicious spiced drinks.
There are two methods to make these powders. One method involves grinding whole spices to a fine powder. Another method is to use a mortar & pestle to grind the spices until they are finely ground.
No matter which method you use, the powder will be much easier to measure and store than whole spices. Powder keeps well, so you will never run out.
Mixing spices can be fun to create new flavors. You could make minty water by combining spearmint and peppermint. For spicy ginger tea, use ginger and cardamom capsules.
Once you've mastered making powdered spices, you can apply the same technique to herbs. Basil, rosemary, thyme and sage are some of the most popular herbs.
There are so many possibilities. Powdered spices can be used to add flavour to beverages or enhance the flavor of dishes like soups, salads and pasta.
How to Store Spices
Keep them in an airtight container away from light and heat.
If you want to keep spices fresh for a long time, place them into a dark cupboard. This will ensure that they stay fresh and prevent any possible oxidation.
Store your spices in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight. The spice may lose flavour and aroma if placed near a window or heater.
Spices need to be kept in an airtight glass container or tin. If you are storing your spices in plastic containers, ensure there is no moisture.
Always check the seal after opening and resealing, as humidity can cause spoilage.
Don't toss out any leftover spices. Use them instead by adding them into other dishes. They can be frozen to prolong their shelf-life.
Which are the best Thai spice?
Galangal (lemongrass), coriander, turmeric and cinnamon are the best Thai spice. Cayenne pepper and clove are also good spices.
Rose petals and bay leaves, pandan leafs, curry leaves, pandan leave, kaffir lemon leaves, vanilla beans. Tamarind pods, lemongrass, basil, mint are other useful spices.
What is Thai spice used for?
It's a term we all have heard, even though we don't know what it actually means. We are left wondering why we don't eat more Thai spice when our mouths water.
It's much more than a spice. It's an ingredient that can add flavor and depth in dishes that otherwise would be bland.
Thousands of recipes call for Thai spices, but few of them include the real deal. Let's find out how to add these wonderful flavors to your dishes.
Thais have been using herbs and spices in their cooking since antiquity to add flavor to food. Thai derives its name from the Sanskrit phrase "to cook".
Most Thais like spicy food, even today. This preference can often be attributed to Thailand's hot weather, which makes it hard to stay warm without hot beverages. Thais are also more likely to consume chili peppers as compared to Americans or Europeans.
A local Asian grocery store is the best place to learn more about Thai spice. There you will find a variety of ingredients such as dried chilies fresh basil leaves curry paste and ground black pepper.
You may also come across whole peppercorns, cloves, cinnamon sticks, star anise, cardamom pods, ginger root, turmeric powder, cumin seeds, coriander seeds, fennel seeds, nutmeg, mace, mustard seed, saffron threads, garlic, onion, rice vinegar and tamarind juice.
There are two types of spices in Thai cuisine: dry and wet. Wet spices are ground finely, while dry spices are typically ground.
Dry spices are often added to a dish directly. You can sprinkle ground red pepper on your chicken soup. A paste is made by combining wet spices and oil with butter or butter.
Wet spices can be used in sauces, dressings, and marinades. Wet spices are used in many dishes, including fish sauce, oyster, sesame, sesame, sesame oil and curry paste.
To make Thai food at your home, it is important to understand which spices are best with particular ingredients.
For example, red pepper flakes is recommended for beef. If you use seafood like shrimp, you should use white pepper instead.
Finally, you can always order online if you don't have access to a good quality Asian market. You can find everything here, from dried chilies to exotic spices and herbs.

How To
How to choose the right spices?
Cooking requires you to learn how to choose the right herbs for your recipes. There are many choices. So where do you start?
There are three main factors to consider when choosing spices: flavour profile, shelf life, and cost. The flavour profiles of different types of food can vary depending on whether they are used to cook meat, fish or vegetables, as well as pasta, eggs and bread. Once you've settled on a category, it's time to narrow down your choices.
The shelf life of spices can also vary. Some spices will last forever, others may expire very quickly. Cayenne pepper can last for many years, while oregano only loses its potency in two months. Also, the price. The price of spices can vary from $1 per tablespoon to over $100 per ounce. This means that spice prices can vary widely.
It's also important to determine if organic or nonorganic ingredients you prefer. Organic products have fewer pesticides and chemicals that conventional products, which is better for your health as well as the environment. You'll have to balance the benefits and costs of organic products.
Online shopping is the best way for you to make sure that you have the right spices in your kitchen. Online retailers offer detailed information about each product, including reviews, pricing, ratings, and ingredient lists.
Once you've narrowed your list, you can order directly from the retailer. When you have received your items, make sure to keep them in an airtight container.
