Almond Meal vs. Almond Flour: What's 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 could also contain gluten making it difficult for some people to digest. It is important to avoid gluten-free products if you have celiac or other digestive disorders.
Although almond flour isn’t considered to be a “superfood”, it is rich in healthy fats and fibre.
The nutritional benefits of almond meal include magnesium and copper, iron and zinc, manganese as well as potassium and vitamin C.
Almond flour is made of almonds. Almond oil is made from polyunsaturated, monounsaturated, fatty oils. Both types lower LDL (bad cholesterol) and increase HDL(good cholesterol).
In addition, almond flour is rich in antioxidants, including flavonoids, phenolics, and proanthocyanidins. These compounds protect against free radical-induced oxidative harm.
An experiment published in the Journal of Agricultural Food Chemistry showed that almond flour has an equivalent antioxidant activity to that of blueberries.
Almond flour is commonly sold together with almondmilk, which has additional nutrients.
What are the uses of Thai spice?
We all have heard the term Thai spices, but we don't understand what it really means. We are left wondering why we don't eat more Thai spice when our mouths water.
It's not just any spice. It's an essential ingredient that adds flavor and depth to dishes that would otherwise 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 is the Sanskrit word that means "to cook".
Thais are still fond of spicy foods. This preference is often explained by the hot climate in Thailand that makes it difficult to stay warm while drinking hot drinks. Thais also consume more chili peppers per capita than Americans and Europeans.
You can learn the most about Thai spices by visiting a local Asian grocery. You'll find many ingredients there, including fresh basil leaves, dried chilies and curry paste.
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.
Thai cuisine offers two types of spices: dry and moist. Most Thai cuisine uses dry spices, which are ground and pulverized finely.
Dry spices are usually added to a dish. Ground red pepper can be sprinkled on chicken soup, for example. Mixing wet spices with oil or butter can create a paste.
Wet spices are commonly used in marinades and sauces. Wet spices are used in many dishes, including fish sauce, oyster, sesame, sesame, sesame oil and curry paste.
Thai recipes can be prepared at home by knowing which spices pair well with what ingredients.
For example, red pepper flakes is recommended for beef. Use white pepper if you are using seafood like shrimp.
You can also order online if your Asian market is not available. This market has everything you need, including dried chilies as well as exotic herbs and spices.

How to store cooking spice?
This article will show you how to store cooking spice for optimal performance. We must first understand the science behind food storage.
Because spice's flavour is diminished by light exposure, it should be stored in airtight containers. This is because oxygen reacts with organic compounds like those in spices to cause oxidation.
To prevent oxidation of spices, keep them in dark cupboards. Spice tends to lose its flavour quickly if these conditions aren't met.
The best way to preserve the flavour of spices is to keep them in airtight jars away from direct sunlight.
For a flavoured beverage, add herbs and spices. For example, mix two teaspoons of ground cinnamon with 1/2 cup of warm water and stir well. Add a squeeze or lemon juice to the mixture and serve immediately.
You can add dried herbs and spices to soups, stews, casseroles, pasta, rice dishes, salads, and desserts. Spread the spice mixture evenly onto the dish. Allow it to sit for between 5-10 minutes before serving.
If you have leftover cooked vegetables, fruit, meats, poultry, fish, shellfish, eggs, cheese, bread, crackers, cookies, cakes, pies, or puddings, they can be added to your favourite recipes as snacks.
Fresh herbs and spices can be enjoyed by being chopped or broken up. You can also freeze herbs and spices by placing them in ice cube trays or muffin cups and freezing them. Once frozen transfer to zip-top plastic bags or freezer bags.
