Frequently Asked Questions
How to store your spices?
Keep them out of the sun and heat.
To store spices for longer periods of time, place them in a dark cupboard. This will help preserve the spices and prevent oxidation.
Store your spices in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight. If the spice is placed near a heater or window, it may lose its flavour and aroma.
Spices need to be kept in an airtight glass container or tin. You should ensure that the containers are not moistened if you store them in plastic containers.
It is vital to always check the seal after opening, resealing and before storing.
Don't throw out any spice leftovers. Use them instead by adding them into other dishes. For an extended shelf life, you can freeze the vegetables.
What mint is used in Thai food?
Lime-leaf mint (Mentha cervina) is the most commonly used type of mint in Thai cuisine.
It has a mild, citrusy flavour that gives dishes a freshness and zing. To enhance Thai cuisine's flavour, other spices like galangal, coriander, lemongrass and garlic are often added.
Mint is a versatile herb and can be used in both sweet and savoury recipes. You can create authentic Thai flavours by choosing the right herbs, spices, and aromatics.
If you're making Thai dishes, be sure to include lime-leaf fresh mint!
Happy cooking!

Almond Flour and 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 be gluten-containing, which can make it difficult to digest. Avoid gluten-free food if you have celiac disease, or any other digestive disorder.
Although almond flour isn’t considered to be a “superfood”, it is rich in healthy fats and fibre.
The almond meal provides nutritional benefits such as magnesium, iron, zinc and manganese. It also contains vitamin A, B1 (thiamin), C, and folate.
Almond flour is made from almonds and contains monounsaturated fat acids. Almond oil, however, contains polyunsaturated oils. Both can lower LDL cholesterol and increase HDL cholesterol.
Almond flour also contains antioxidants like phenolics and flavonoids. These compounds prevent free radical-induced oxidative stress.
A study published by the Journal of Agricultural Food Chemistry revealed that almond flour had an antioxidant activity equal to that of blueberries.
Almond flour can be purchased with almond milk that has been supplemented with nutrients.
What are the main Flavours of Thai Cooking?
Thai cuisine includes several distinct regional cuisines. These include Northern and Central Thai cuisines, as well as Southern, Eastern, Western, Eastern, Western, Northeastern Thai food. Each region is unique in its flavour profiles.
Thai food contains many flavors.
Thais love sweetness because it makes their dishes more delicious. Sweet ingredients such as palm sugar (gula melaka) and coconut milk play a significant role in Thai cuisine.
In Thailand, sourness is very popular. Hot dishes can often be paired with sour foods. This combination balances out the heat.
Thai food is not complete without spicy food. Thai dishes often use spices such as chili pepper, galangal or ginger root.
What is the significance of spices?
A spice can be described as a seasoning to enhance flavour in food. There are many types of spices, including powders, liquids and oils. They can also be known as condiments, flavours, and flavor.
Spicing up dishes is a great way to add variety to meals. For extra flavor and excitement, you can add many spices to your dishes.
Hot pepper sauce may make soup taste better. A cup of cooked rice could be made more delicious by adding a few cayenne to the soup.
Fresh ingredients are best for experimenting with spicing. When you are buying dried herbs, make sure they are organic. Fresh herbs are more durable than dried herbs.
While some spices are essential for cooking, others might be better to avoid. Cinnamon sticks are high in coumarin so you should avoid them if your liver has been affected. Ginger also has coumarin, although it's less concentrated. It is safe for those who have not had liver problems in the past.

How To
How to Cut Shiitake Mushrooms?
The shiitakes are doing well. There's nothing wrong with them. They are fine. But how can we make them cut without hurting ourselves? We've tried everything, even scissors. But they keep slipping out of our hands. What's the matter?
It's possible to do this by using a trick. Put a rubber band around your mushroom stem and twist it tight. This will ensure that you don't fall and break your wrists.
You may be thinking that this seems too easy. It is. But it's also very powerful.
The rubber band makes your stem slippery and it feels very natural when you pick it it up. You can also hold the stem tight.
Now, go ahead and try it. It's so easy to chop mushrooms now.
