Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between curry and curried?

There is no difference in spelling. Both words are used to describe the same thing: Indian dishes that combine meat or vegetables with various seasonings.

Curry comes from Hindi word kari that means "to rub". It refers how spice mixtures are applied to food. Curried foods are typically cooked until browned.

Curried dishes were once reserved for special occasions, but today, they're enjoyed frequently throughout India. They can include chicken, beef, lamb, fish, vegetables, and rice.

Curried dishes can be served alongside plain white or brown rice. A raita (a yogurt-based sauce) or a chutney is another common accompaniment.

Is Thai cuisine made with garlic?

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 can be eaten in a variety of ways. This is known as "Nam Phrik", or namphrik. Nam phrik often comes with grilled chicken breast or beef.

Does Thai use ginger?

The answer is yes. Traditional Thai cuisine uses ginger extensively. Ginger is often used in stir-fries and soups, as well as desserts and drinks, such as lassis.

Ginger is a common ginger plant in China, Japan, Korea, and elsewhere. Its origins can be traced back to more than 5,000years ago. It is believed it originated in Southeast Asia. There, it was used for medicinal purposes.

Ginger is known for stimulating digestion and relieving nausea. It may even help prevent migraines. In addition, ginger aids in reducing muscle spasms, relieving joint pains, and treating arthritis.

Ginger is often fresh in Thailand. Ginger root is first cut into thin strips before drying and stored. Ginger root can be purchased in cans or jars at Asian markets.

What spices are used to make Thai cuisine?

Thai cuisine is renowned for its complex flavour profiles. These flavours come from unique and flavorful spices that create various delicious dishes.

Thai cooking uses many common ingredients, including galangal kaffir lime leaf, galangal kaffir lemon leaves, chillies, chillies, garlic, shrimp paste, cumin, turmeric, and many more.

Each spice adds to Thai cuisine's distinct flavour profile. The most common uses of lemongrass are in soups, curries, stews, and galangal; galangal is used to add a little peppery kick to dishes, kaffir lime leaves give dishes a citrusy scent, chillies are spicy; shrimp paste gives food an umami flavour; garlic provides a sharp, pungent flavor; cilantro adds a mild aroma to dishes, cumin lends a smoky taste, while turmeric gives dishes a vibrant yellow hue.

Together, these spices combine to create complex flavour profiles unique to Thai cuisine. A combination of spices can be used to create both aromatic and flavorful dishes. Stock up on these spices if you want to incorporate the Thai flavours into your cooking.

How To

How do you decide which spices to purchase?

To cook, you'll need to know how to choose the right herbs and spices for your recipes. There are hundreds of options, so where do you begin when deciding which ones to add to your pantry?

Three main factors should be considered when selecting spices: price, shelf life and flavour profile. Flavour profiles differ depending on whether you're cooking meat, poultry, fish, vegetables, beans, grains, pasta, eggs, dessert, bread, etc. You'll need to narrow your choices once you've chosen a category.

The shelf life of spices can also vary. Some spices will last forever, others may expire very quickly. For example, cayenne pepper lasts for years, whereas oregano loses its potency after two months. The price is another factor. Spices are available in a range of prices, from $1 per tablespoon to more expensive than $100 per an ounce. This means that you will need to strike a balance between quality and value.

Also, you will need to choose whether organic or non-organic ingredients are more appealing. Organic products contain fewer chemicals and pesticides than conventional alternatives, making them better for your health and the environment. However, they often cost more, so you'll need to weigh those costs against the benefits.

Shopping online is the best way to ensure you pick the right spices for your kitchen. Online retailers provide comprehensive information on every product, including pricing, reviews and ratings.

Once you have narrowed down your choices, you can place an online order with the retailer. You should store your items in airtight containers, away from heat and sunlight once you receive them.
