Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference in cooking with whole vs. ground spices? Ground Spices?
There is no difference in cooking with whole spices and cooked with ground spices. After harvesting, spices are ground. So there is no difference in quality.
However, the price differences are significant. Because of the labor involved in making whole spices, they cost more. But the taste is worth it.
When you buy bulk spices, you may get additional discounts. If you buy a whole bag of cinnamon sticks, you may get a discount.
The same applies to nutmeg and cloves, ginger or cardamom. You may be able save money if you buy these spices in bulk.
Ground spices don't last as long as whole spices. Ground spices lose their potency very quickly due to oxidation.
The main reason we recommend whole spices over dried is that they can add lots of flavor to recipes.
You can make delicious curry using whole turmeric, instead of ground turmeric. For chicken dishes, whole coriander seeds can be ground to make a spice blend.
Grinding spices takes time. When you buy whole spices, it makes sense to buy a large quantity. This will ensure that you don't run out of spices quickly.
What is the Thai use for mint?
Thai cuisine's most used type is lime-leaf, or Mentha cervina.
It adds freshness to dishes with its mild, lemony flavor. Thai dishes often include other spices such as galangal (lemongrass), garlic, and coriander.
Mint is versatile and can be used both in sweet and savoury recipes. You can create authentic Thai flavours by choosing the right herbs, spices, and aromatics.
For extra flavor, make sure to add lime-leaf mint next time you prepare a Thai meal!
Happy cooking!
What are the typical spices, condiments, and seasonings used in their dishes in Thailand?
Thai cuisine is a mixture of Asian influences. Its roots lie in India, China, and Southeast Asia.
Freshness is the most important ingredient in Thai food. It is easier to get the best flavour from ingredients if they are picked earlier and cooked quickly. This is why meat, fish, vegetables, fruits, herbs, nuts, seeds, and grains are often eaten raw and served hot.
The addition of spices and sauces can add depth and aroma 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. are used frequently.
What are the uses of Thai spice?
Everyone has heard the term Thai spice, but not all know what it is. When we taste it, our mouths water and we wonder why we aren't eating more.
It's much more than a spice. It is an important ingredient that gives flavor and depth to bland dishes.
While there are thousands of Thai-inspired recipes out there, few of them contain the real thing. Let's learn how to include these delicious flavors in your meals.
Thais have been using spices and herbs to flavor food and drinks since ancient times. Thai derives its name from the Sanskrit phrase "to cook".
Even today, most Thais prefer to eat spicy foods. This preference is often explained by the hot climate in Thailand that makes it difficult to stay warm while drinking hot drinks. Thais consume more chili peppers than Americans and Europeans.
You can learn the most about Thai spices by visiting a local Asian grocery. There you will find a variety of ingredients such as dried chilies fresh basil leaves curry paste and ground black pepper.
You may also find whole peppercorns.
There are two types of spices in Thai cuisine: dry and wet. Wet spices are ground finely, while dry spices are typically ground.
Dry spices are typically added directly to a dish. For example, you can sprinkle ground red pepper onto your chicken soup. Wet spices are commonly mixed with oil or butter to form a paste.
Wet spices are used in dressings, sauces and marinades. Fish sauce, oyster sauces, sesame and sesame olive oils, curry paste and hoisin are some of the most common wet spice options.
You need to be able to match certain spices with Thai ingredients if you wish to make Thai food at home.
For example, if you are using beef, you should use red pepper flakes. Use white pepper if you are using seafood like shrimp.
Online ordering is also possible if you don’t have an Asian market. There are many options for exotic herbs, spices and dried chilies.

How To
How To Make A Garlic Press?
A garlic press can be one of the most important tools in a home cook's toolbox. You can quickly mince garlic or make a paste. You can also crush whole garlic cloves to make buttery spreads or garlic seasonings.
It's possible to be confused if you don’t yet own a garlicpress. Here are some tips to get you started.
First of all, you'll need to get a large bowl. Place the bowl beneath the press, and then pour the crushed garlic in it. Set the pressure regulator valve at the maximum setting.
Next, turn the handle counterclockwise until you hear a click. The top of the press should lift up and expose a flat surface. This will allow you slide the blade back-and-forth over the bowl. Keep turning the handle clockwise until you reach the end of the blades.
Finally, take out the pressed garlic.
Here are some more ways to use this versatile instrument:
- Add minced garlic to soups, sauces, salads, and dips (or even as a seasoning)
- To crush whole garlic cloves, use the press to create a buttery spread
- Before baking, crush whole cloves of garlic on pizza dough
- Make roasted garlic mashed potatoes, or creamy polenta.
- The press can be used to make pesto from garlic
- Blend the garlic into a smooth vinegar dressing
