Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between curried and curry?
It doesn't matter how the spelling is written. Both terms refer to the exact same thing: An Indian dish that combines meat and vegetables with different seasonings.
Curry derives its name from the Hindi word kari which means "to rub." The spice mixture is then applied to the food. Curried foods are generally cooked until they become golden.
While curried dishes were once reserved only for special occasions they are now enjoyed regularly throughout India. They can be made with chicken, beef or lamb and include vegetables as well.
Plain white rice is commonly served with curried meals. You can also add raita (a yogurt sauce), or chutney (a sweet relish).
What spices are commonly used in Thai cuisine?
Thai cuisine is renowned for its complex flavour profiles. These unique flavours are created with flavorful spices, which result in delicious dishes.
Common ingredients in Thai cuisine include galangal and kaffir lime leaves, chilies, garlic, chillies, chillies, ginger, coriander and cumin.
Each one of these spices adds to Thai cuisine’s unique flavour profile. Lemongrass is often used in soups, curries, and stews; galangal adds a slight peppery note to dishes; kaffir lime leaves impart a citrusy aroma; chillies provide a spicy kick; garlic adds a sharp and pungent flavour to dishes; shrimp paste adds an umami depth to food; coriander has a mild, yet fragrant aroma; cumin brings a smoky note to dishes; and turmeric gives food a vibrant yellow hue.
These spices work together to create unique flavour profiles for Thai cuisine. Chefs can create delicious and aromatic dishes by using a variety of spices. These spices will help you bring Thailand's flavours to your kitchen.
What mint is used in Thai food?
The most common type of mint used in Thai cuisine is lime-leaf mint (Mentha Cervina).
It is mild and lemony in flavour, which adds freshness as well as zing to dishes. Thai dishes can also be enhanced by adding other spices such galangal or coriander to their flavour.
Mint can be used as a sweet or savoury herb. To achieve authentic Thai flavours, it is important to use the right spices, herbs and aromatics.
For extra flavor, make sure to add lime-leaf mint next time you prepare a Thai meal!
Happy cooking!
What uses is Thai spice?
We've all heard the term "Thai spice" thrown around without knowing exactly what it means. It makes our mouths water when we try it.
It isn't just any spice. It's an essential ingredient, which adds depth and flavor to dishes otherwise bland.
Thousands of recipes call for Thai spices, but few of them include the real deal. Let's learn how to include these delicious flavors in your meals.
Thais have used herbs and spices since ancient times to enhance food and drink. Thai comes from the Sanskrit term for "to prepare".
Even today, most Thais prefer to eat spicy foods. This preference can often be attributed to Thailand's hot weather, which makes it hard to stay warm without hot beverages. Additionally, Thais consume much more chili peppers than Europeans or Americans.
Visit a local Asian grocery shop to find out more about Thai spices. There will be a large selection of ingredients available including dried chilies (fresh basil leaves), curry paste, ground black pepper, and curry paste.
You may also come across whole peppercorns, cloves, cinnamon sticks, star anise, cardamom pods, ginger root, turmeric powder, cumin seeds, coriander seeds, fennel seeds, nutmeg, mace, mustard seed, saffron threads, garlic, onion, rice vinegar and tamarind juice.
Thai cuisine can use either dry or wet spices. Most Thai cuisine uses dry spices, which are ground and pulverized finely.
Dry spices are added directly to a dish. A good example is chicken soup with ground red pepper. Wet spices are commonly mixed with oil or butter to form a paste.
Wet spices are usually used in marinades, sauces, and dressings. Some common wet spices include fish sauce, oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, curry paste, and hoisin sauce.
If you want to try making Thai dishes at home, you need to know which spices go well with certain ingredients.
Red pepper flakes should be used if you're using beef. If you're using seafood like shrimp, white pepper should be used.
If you don't live near an Asian market, you can order online. There are many options for exotic herbs, spices and dried chilies.
So next time you get hungry, think about putting on a little extra heat by whipping up one of these tasty Thai recipes!
Can you add spice to a beverage?
I love how spices bring flavour to food. But how can you make them live when they're used in drinks.
Spices can bring out the best of any beverage. From coffee to tea, hot chocolate to cocktails, there's nothing more satisfying than adding a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg to a glass of wine or beer.
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.
This is where magic happens. With a little creativity, you can make your favorite spices easy to use in powdered form. To make tasty spiced drinks, you can combine them with your favourite beverages.
There are two ways to go about creating these powders. One method involves grinding whole spices to a fine powder. Another method is to use a mortar & pestle to grind the spices until they are finely ground.
Whichever method you choose, you'll find that the resulting powder is much easier to measure out and store than whole spices. Powder keeps well, so you will never run out.
You can even experiment with mixing different spices to create new flavours. For minty water you could mix spearmint with peppermint leaves. Or ginger and cardamom pods to make spicy ginger tea.
Once you've learned how to make powdered spices from scratch, you can apply the same process to herbs. Basil, rosemary, thyme and sage are some of the most 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.
What are the primary Flavours in Thai cooking?
Thai cuisine includes several distinct regional cuisines. These include Northern Thai food, Central Thai food, Southern Thai food, Eastern Thai food, Western Thai food, and Northeastern Thai. Each region has a distinct flavour profile.
Thai food is known for its sweet, salty and sour flavors.
Thais appreciate sweetness. It makes Thai food taste better. Thai cuisine is rich in sweet ingredients like coconut milk and palm sugar (gula melanka).
Sourness is also very popular in Thailand. Sour foods are often served alongside hot dishes. This helps to balance out the heat.
Thai food includes spicy food. Thai recipes often include spices such as galangal and ginger root.

How To
How to store cooking spices?
Here's how to store your cooking spices for maximum performance. First, we must understand how food is stored.
Because spices lose their flavour when exposed to the sun, they are best kept out of reach from light. This is caused by oxidation, which happens when oxygen and organic compounds combine like spices.
Spices should be kept in the dark cupboards and sealed tightly in airtight containers to prevent oxidation. Spices will lose their flavour quickly if the conditions aren’t met.
Keep spices in airtight containers away from direct sun to preserve their flavour.
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. Add a squeeze or lemon juice to the mixture and serve immediately.
You can add dried herbs and spices to soups, stews, casseroles, pasta, rice dishes, salads, and desserts. Place the spice mixture on top of the dish and allow it to rest for 5-10 mins before serving.
Remaining cooked vegetables, fruit and meats can be used in your favorite recipes to make snacks.
You can enjoy the fresh flavours of fresh herbs or spices by chopping them up and adding them to food while they are still hot. It is also possible to freeze herbs and spices in muffin cups or ice cube trays. Once frozen, transfer to freezer bags or zip-top plastic bags.
