Frequently Asked Questions
What purpose is Thai spice used?
We've all heard the term "Thai spice" thrown around without knowing exactly what it means. But when we discover our mouths water, we wonder why we haven't been eating more of it.
It's much more than a spice. It's an essential ingredient, which adds depth and flavor to dishes otherwise bland.
Many recipes call for Thai spice, but only a few have the actual thing. Let's talk about how to make sure you add these amazing flavors to your meals.
As far back as ancient times, Thais have been cooking with herbs and spices to add flavor to food and beverages. Thai comes from the Sanskrit term for "to prepare".
Most Thais like spicy food, even today. This preference can be attributed to Thailand’s hot weather. It is difficult to stay warm when you don't have something to drink. Additionally, Thais consume much more chili peppers than Europeans or Americans.
You can learn the most about Thai spices by visiting a local Asian grocery. There, you'll find a wide variety of ingredients, including dried chilies, fresh basil leaves, curry paste, and even ground black pepper.
Whole peppercorns, whole cloves, cinnamon sticks and star anise may also be found.
Thai cuisine can use either dry or wet spices. Dry spices are generally ground, while wet spices can be crushed or pounded finely.
Dry spices are added directly to a dish. For example, you can sprinkle ground red pepper onto your chicken soup. A paste is made by combining wet spices and oil with butter or butter.
Wet spices are usually used in marinades, sauces, and dressings. The most popular wet spices are fish sauce (oyster sauce), sesame oil, sesame paste, curry paste, and Hoisin sauce.
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. Use white pepper if you are using seafood like shrimp.
Online ordering is also possible if you don’t have an Asian market. This market has everything you need, including dried chilies as well as exotic herbs and spices.

What is the use of garlic in Thai cooking?
Thai cuisine often uses garlic. Garlic is used often in Thai cuisine, such as soups, stir fries, curries, sauces, and salads.
In Thailand, garlic can be chopped and fried along with ginger and shallots. It is also often eaten with sticky rice.
Garlic is best chopped finely and mixed with oil, chilli paste, fish sauce, lime juice and oil. This mixture is known as Nam Phrik (namphrik). Nam phrik is often accompanied by grilled chicken or beef.
What is the value of spices?
A spice is a seasoning that is used to enhance the flavor of food. Spices can take many forms such as powders (liquids), oils, pastes and seeds. They are also known for their versatility and ability to be used as flavours and condiments.
You can spice up meals to make them more interesting. To add more flavour and excitement to dishes, many spices can be used.
Hot pepper sauce may make soup taste better. You could also add a few cayenne peppers to a cup of rice.
The best way to experiment with spicing recipes is to use fresh ingredients. When you are buying dried herbs, make sure they are organic. Fresh herbs can last for longer than dried.
Although some spices are essential to cooking, there are others that you might prefer not to use. Cinnamon sticks contain high amounts of coumarin, so they should not be eaten if you have a history of liver disease. Ginger also contains high amounts of coumarin. However, it is much more concentrated. It's safe for people who don't have a history of liver problems.
What are the typical spices, condiments, and seasonings used in their dishes in Thailand?
Thai cuisine is a mix of Asian influences. Its roots are in India and China as well as 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 meats and fish, as well as vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds and grains, are often eaten raw and served warm.
Spices and sauces add complexity and fragrance 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 are often used.

How To
How to decide what spices to buy?
Cooking requires you to learn how to choose the right herbs for your recipes. There are hundreds of choices, so where can you start when choosing which spices to add to your kitchen?
Three main factors should be considered when selecting spices: price, shelf life and flavour profile. You can choose to use different flavour profiles depending on whether your cooking involves meat, poultry or fish, vegetables and pasta. You'll need to narrow your choices once you've chosen a category.
Also, shelf lives can vary widely. 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. Then there's 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.
You'll also want to determine whether you prefer organic or non-organic ingredients. Organic products are less chemically and pesticide-laden than other alternatives. They are better for your environment and health. But they can often be more expensive so make sure you weigh the benefits against their costs.
Online shopping is the best option to find the right spices. Online retailers offer comprehensive information about every product, including price, reviews, ratings, and ingredients.
Once you've narrowed your list, you can order directly from the retailer. After you have received your items, keep them safe in an airtight container away from heat or light.
