Almond Flour or Almond Meal? What is the difference?
A almond meal is a versatile almond flour alternative that can be used to bake, cook, or even make nut-free dishes.
Almond flour can also contain gluten which makes it more 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 a superfood per se but it does contain healthy fats, fibre and protein and no cholesterol.
Almond meal has many nutritional benefits, including magnesium, copper and zinc as well as manganese and potassium.
Almond flour is made of almonds. Almond oil is made from polyunsaturated, monounsaturated, fatty oils. Both types help lower LDL (bad) cholesterol levels and increase HDL (good) cholesterol levels.
Almond flour is high in antioxidants including phenolics, flavonoids, and proanthocyanidins. These compounds protect against oxidative damage caused by free radicals.
The Journal of Agricultural Food Chemistry published a study that found almond flour to have the same antioxidant activity as blueberries, cranberries and pomegranates.
Almond flour is usually sold alongside almond milk, fortified with additional nutrients.
What are the most common spices, condiments and seasonings that Thais use in their cuisine?
Thai cuisine is a combination of influences from all over Asia. Its roots lie in India and China, along with Southeast Asia.
Freshness is the most important ingredient in Thai food. 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.
Spices and sauces give dishes depth and color. 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. are used frequently.
What kind of mint are used in Thai cuisine?
Thai cuisine has the most widespread use of lime-leaf mint (Mentha certvina).
It has a mild, citrusy flavour that gives dishes a freshness and zing. Thai dishes can also be enhanced by adding other spices such galangal or coriander to their flavour.
Mint is versatile and can be used both in sweet and savoury recipes. To achieve authentic Thai flavours, it is important to use the right spices, herbs and aromatics.
If you're making Thai dishes, be sure to include lime-leaf fresh mint!
Happy cooking!
Can you add spice into a drink
I love how spices bring flavour to food. How can you make spices come to life when they are used in drinks?
Spices add a wonderful depth to any beverage. Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to your favorite beverage, such as coffee, tea, or hot chocolate.
But, since most recipes call to ground spices, you'll need whole spices. While this makes sense, it is costly, takes time and requires storage space.
Here is where the magic happens. With a little creativity, you can make your favorite spices easy to use in powdered form. Then you can mix them into your favourite beverages to create delicious spiced drinks.
There are two ways to go about creating these powders. A second method is to grind whole spices into fine powder. Another uses a mortar and pestle to grind the spices into a finer consistency.
Whichever method you choose, you'll find that the resulting powder is much easier to measure out and store than whole spices. You won't run short of powder, and it keeps well.
You can experiment with mixing spices to create different flavours. Peppermint and spearmint can be combined to make minty water. Ginger and cardamom pods can be used to make spicy ginger Tea.
Once you've mastered making powdered spices, you can apply the same technique to herbs. You can use basil, rosemary and thyme as common herbs.
There are so many possibilities. You can use powdered spice to enhance the flavour of your drinks or dishes like soups, salads, or pasta.
Is garlic used in Thai cooking?
Thai cuisine uses garlic. Garlic is commonly added to salads.
Thai garlic is chopped and fried together with ginger, shallots and other spices. It is also often eaten with sticky rice.
Garlic can be eaten in a variety of ways. This is "Nam Phrik" or "namphrik". Nam phrik can be served with grilled chicken and beef.

How To
How can I store my cooking spices?
How to store cooking spices in a way that maximizes their performance. First, it is important to understand the science behind how foodstuffs are stored.
Keep spices out of direct sunlight as light will reduce their flavor. This is because oxygen reacts with organic compounds like those in spices to cause oxidation.
Spices should be kept in the dark cupboards and sealed tightly in airtight containers to prevent oxidation. If these conditions are not met, spices will quickly lose their flavour.
It is the best way to preserve spices' flavours by keeping them out of direct sunlight.
To create a flavorful drink, you can add spices and herbs to water. For example, mix two teaspoons of ground cinnamon with 1/2 cup of warm water and stir well. Serve immediately by adding a squeeze lemon juice.
Add dried herbs and spices to soups. Place the spice mixture on top of the dish and allow it to rest for 5-10 mins before serving.
You can add leftover cooked vegetables, fruits, meats and shellfish to your favorite recipes as snacks.
For the best flavor of fresh herbs, you can chop them up or tear them apart and then add them to your favorite foods. You can also freeze herbs and spices by placing them in ice cube trays or muffin cups and freezing them. Once frozen, place them in freezer bags or zip-top bags.
