Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Thai use for mint?
Thai cuisine uses the most popular type of mint, the lime-leaf (Mentha cevina).
It adds freshness to dishes with its mild, lemony flavor. Thai dishes can also be enhanced by adding other spices such galangal or coriander to their flavour.
Mint can be used in sweet or savoury dishes. Using the right spices, herbs, and aromatics is essential to achieving delicious authentic Thai flavours.
For extra flavor, make sure to add lime-leaf mint next time you prepare a Thai meal!
Happy cooking!
What are the main spices, condiments, seasonings and herbs used in Thai cuisine?
Thai cuisine is a mixture of Asian influences. It is rooted in India and China along with Southeast Asia.
Freshness, the essential ingredient of Thai cuisine, is key. You get more flavor if ingredients are picked in the early stages of cooking and then cooked quickly. This is why meat, fish, vegetables, fruits, herbs, nuts, seeds, and grains are often eaten raw and served hot.
Sauces and spices add depth and flavor to dishes. Fresh basil, cilantro, mint, coriander (cilantro), lemongrass, ginger, turmeric, garlic, chillies, chilli paste, soy sauce, tamarind juice, oyster sauce, palm sugar, coconut milk, lime leaves, galangal root, curry powder, shrimp paste, fish sauce, tamarind water, rice vinegar, etc. These ingredients are common.
What's the difference of curry and curried
The spellings are the same. Both words refer to the same thing: an Indian dish combining meat or vegetables with various seasonings.
Curry is derived from the Hindi word kari, which means "to rub". This refers to the way the spice mixture is applied to the food. Curry is typically prepared until the food is golden brown.
Although curried dishes used to be reserved for special occasions, today they are enjoyed all over India. These dishes can be chicken, beef (lamb), fish, or vegetables.
Curried dishes are typically served alongside plain white rice. A raita (a yogurt-based sauce) or a chutney is another common accompaniment.
Can you spice up a drink?
I love how spices bring flavour to food. But how do you make them come alive when used in drinks?
Spices are great because they bring out the best in any beverage. Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to your favorite beverage, such as coffee, tea, or hot chocolate.
But most recipes call for ground spices, meaning you'll need fresh whole spices. Although this is logical, it can be costly, time-consuming, and takes up storage space.
That's where the magic happens. With your creativity, you can turn your favorite spices into easy-to-use powdered products. These spices can be mixed into favorite beverages to create tasty spiced drinks.
There are two possible ways to create these powders. A second method is to grind whole spices into fine powder. Another method is to use a mortar & pestle to grind the spices until they are finely ground.
It doesn't matter what method you choose, the result is easier to measure out than whole spices and easier to store. Plus, the powder keeps well so that you won't run out of stock.
Mixing spices can be fun to create new flavors. Peppermint and spearmint can be combined to make minty water. Ginger and cardamom pods can be used to make spicy ginger Tea.
Once you are skilled in the production of powdered spices, it is possible to apply that technique to herbs. Oregano and rosemary are all popular herbs.
The possibilities are endless. Powdered spices are a great way to make your drinks more flavorful or to enhance dishes like soups and salads.

How To
How to choose the right spices?
Knowing how to choose the best herbs and spices for your dishes is essential to being a good cook. There are many options available, so how do you choose which ones to add in your pantry?
When choosing spices, there are three things you should consider: the flavour profile, shelf-life, and cost. There are many flavour profiles that can be used depending on how you cook meat, poultry, fish and vegetables as well as beans, grains, pastas, eggs, bread, cakes, and other foods. Once you have decided on a category you will need to narrow your options based on the differences.
Shelf lives vary greatly too. Some spices are good for a lifetime, while others can be lost quickly. For example, cayenne pepper is good for years and oregano lasts only two months. There's also the cost. The price of spices can vary from $1 per tablespoon to over $100 per ounce. This means you have to strike the right balance between quality and cost.
It is also important to decide if you prefer organic ingredients or not. Organic products have fewer pesticides and chemicals that conventional products, which is better for your health as well as the environment. These products can also be more costly so make sure to weigh the benefits against the costs.
Online shopping is the best method to ensure that you get the right spices for the kitchen. Online retailers provide detailed information on each product, including ingredient lists, pricing, reviews, and ratings.
Once you have narrowed down your choices, you can place an online order with the retailer. When you have received your items, make sure to keep them in an airtight container.
