Frequently Asked Questions
What are the best Thai spices?
The best Thai spices include lemongrass, galangal, coriander, turmeric, cinnamon, and ginger. Cayenne pepper and clove are also good spices.
Other valuable spices include bay leaves, curry, pandan, curry leaves. Kaffir lime leaves. Vanilla beans. Tamarind pods. Lemon grass. Basil.
Can you add spice to a beverage?
I love spices adding flavour to food. How do you make spices alive 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.
Most recipes call for ground spices. This means that you'll need fresh whole spice. While this makes sense, it is costly, takes time and requires storage space.
Here is where the magic happens. With your creativity, you can turn your favorite spices into easy-to-use powdered products. You can then mix the spices into your favorite beverages to make delicious spiced drinks.
There are two methods to make these powders. One method involves grinding whole spices into fine powder. Another way is to grind the spices in a mortar and pestle.
No matter which method you use, the powder will be much easier to measure and store than whole spices. The powder is stable so you don't run low on stock.
Mixing different spices can create new flavors. For minty water you could mix spearmint with peppermint leaves. To make spicy ginger tea, you can also combine ginger and cardamom pods.
Once you are proficient in making powdered spice, you can also apply this technique to herbs. Some popular herbs include basil, oregano, rosemary, thyme, and sage.
The possibilities are limitless. Powdered spices can enhance the flavor and texture of beverages, such as soups or salads, as well as the taste of pasta.
What is the difference between cooking Whole and Ground Spices? Ground Spices?
There are no significant differences in the cooking of whole and ground spices. All spices can be ground once they have been harvested. So there is no difference in quality.
However, the price difference is substantial. Whole spices can be more expensive due to the labor involved in their processing. But the flavour is well worth it.
You'll often find extra discounts for bulk purchases when you buy whole spices. For example, you might receive a discount if you buy an entire bag of cinnamon sticks.
This is true for cloves, ginger and cardamom. If you purchase these spices in bulk, you may be able to save money.
Ground spices don't last as long as whole spices. Ground spices lose their potency rapidly due to oxygenation.
Whole spices are a great way to add personality and flavor to your recipe.
You can make a delicious curry by using whole turmeric in place of ground turmeric. You can also grind whole coriander leaves to make a spice mix for chicken dishes.
Grinding spices takes time. A large amount of whole spices is a good idea. That way, you won't run out of spices too fast.
Does Thai use ginger?
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 of China, Japan, Korea and other Asian countries. Its origins go back over 5,000 years. It is believed that ginger originated in Southeast Asia where it was grown for medicinal purposes.
Ginger has been shown to reduce nausea and stimulate digestion. It may even help prevent migraines. Ginger aids in relieving muscle spasms and joint pains. It can also treat arthritis.
Ginger is often fresh in Thailand. Ginger root is first cut into thin strips before drying and stored. Asian markets sell ginger root in cans and cans.

How To
How to choose which spices to buy
To cook, you'll need to know how to choose the right herbs and spices for your recipes. There are hundreds to choose from, so where should you start when choosing the right ones for your pantry?
When selecting spices, you need to be aware of three key factors: cost, shelf life, flavour, 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've settled on a category, it's time to narrow down your choices.
You will also find that shelf lives can vary. Some spices keep forever, while some others are prone to deterioration quickly. Cayenne pepper can last for many years, while oregano only loses its potency in two months. There's also the cost. Spices are available in a range of prices, from $1 per tablespoon to more expensive than $100 per an ounce. This means you have to strike the right balance between quality and cost.
Also, consider whether organic or not organic ingredients. Organic products use fewer pesticides, chemicals, and other harmful substances than traditional alternatives. This makes them safer for you and the environment. They can be more expensive, so it's important to weigh the costs and the benefits.
Online shopping is the best method to ensure that you get the right spices for the kitchen. Online retailers provide extensive information about each product including reviews, prices, ratings and ratings.
Once you've narrowed your list, you can order directly from the retailer. Once you have received your items safely store them in an airtight container, away from heat & light.
