Frequently Asked Questions
What is the importance of spices?
Spices are seasonings that enhance the flavour of food. Spices can take many forms such as powders (liquids), oils, pastes and seeds. They are also called condiments and flavours.
It's a great way of adding variety to your meals by spiceing them up. You can spice up dishes with many different spices for more flavor and excitement.
It may be that adding a few drops to your bowl of soup makes it more flavorful. A cup of cooked rice could be made more delicious by adding a few cayenne to the soup.
Fresh ingredients are best for experimenting with spicing. When you are buying dried herbs, make sure they are organic. Fresh herbs last longer than dried.
There are certain spices that are essential for cooking. But there are also some you might want to avoid. Cinnamon sticks contain high amounts of coumarin, so they should not be eaten if you have a history of liver disease. Ginger also contains coumarin, but it's much less concentrated. It's safe for those without any history of liver problems.
How to store your spices?
Keep them out of the sun and heat.
Place them in a dark cupboard to store spices for extended periods. This will preserve them and prevent any oxidation.
Store your spices in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight. If the spice is placed near a heater or window, it may lose its flavour and aroma.
Spices should be stored in an airtight tin or glass jar. If you are storing your spices in plastic containers, ensure there is no moisture.
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. You can make use of them by adding them to your favorite dishes. To prolong their shelf life you can freeze them.
Does Thai use ginger?
The answer is yes. Ginger is used extensively in traditional Thai cooking. It is often added to stir-fries and soups and is also commonly used in desserts and drinks such as lassis.
Ginger is a native to China and Japan. The origins of ginger go back over 5,000 year. It is believed to have originated in Southeast Asia, where it was cultivated for medicinal purposes.
Ginger has been known to improve digestion and reduce nausea. It may even help prevent migraines. Ginger aids in relieving muscle spasms and joint pains. It can also treat arthritis.
In Thailand, ginger is most often used fresh. Ginger root is first cut into thin strips before drying and stored. You can buy ginger root in jars or cans from Asian markets.
Almond Flour vs. Almond Meal: What's the Difference?
An almond meal can be used as an alternative to almond flour. It can also be used in cooking and baking.
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.
Almond flour isn't considered "superfood", but it is high in healthy fats, fibres, protein, vitamin E, and sodium.
The nutritional benefits of almond meal include magnesium and copper, iron and zinc, manganese as well as potassium and vitamin C.
Because it's made from almonds, almond flour contains monounsaturated fatty acids, while almond oil contains polyunsaturated fatty acids. Both help to lower LDL (bad), and increase HDL levels.
In addition, almond flour is rich in antioxidants, including flavonoids, phenolics, and proanthocyanidins. These compounds protect against oxidative damage caused by free radicals.
A study published by the Journal of Agricultural Food Chemistry revealed that almond flour had an antioxidant activity equal to that of blueberries.
Almond flour can be purchased with almond milk that has been supplemented with nutrients.

How To
How to Make a Garlic Pressure?
A garlic press is a valuable tool in every home cook's kitchen. It can be used to quickly mince garlic into a paste. It is also useful for crushing whole cloves of garlic into buttery spreads and garlic salt.
But if you don't own a garlic press yet, you might wonder where to start with one. Luckily, we've got some tips to help you get started.
First, you will need a large bowl. Place the bowl beneath the press, and then pour the crushed garlic in it. Now adjust the pressure regulator to the maximum.
Next, turn your handle clockwise to hear a click. You will be able to slide the blade over the bowl by lifting the top part of your press. Continue turning the handle counterclockwise to close the blades.
Finally, take out the pressed garlic.
Here are other ways you can make use of this versatile tool.
- Add minced garlic to soups, sauces, salads, and dips (or even as a seasoning)
- Use the press to crush whole garlic cloves into a buttery spread
- Make pizza dough by crushing whole cloves.
