Frequently Asked Questions

What does Thai spice serve?

We all have heard the term Thai spices, but we don't understand what it really means. It makes our mouths water when we try it.

It's more than just a spice. It's an ingredient that can add flavor and depth in dishes that otherwise would be bland.

While there are thousands of Thai-inspired recipes out there, few of them contain the real thing. Let's find out how to add these wonderful flavors to your dishes.

Thais have been cooking with herbs, spices and other flavors since ancient times. Thai, which means "to make", comes from the Sanskrit word.

Many Thais love spicy foods, even today. This preference is often due to the heat in Thailand which makes it difficult for people to stay warm without hot drinks. Thais are also more likely to consume chili peppers as compared to Americans or Europeans.

The best way to learn about Thai spices is to visit a local Asian grocery store. There will be a large selection of ingredients available including dried chilies (fresh basil leaves), curry paste, ground black pepper, and curry paste.

Whole peppercorns, whole cloves, cinnamon sticks and star anise may also be found.

There are two types of spices in Thai cuisine: dry and wet. Most Thai cuisine uses dry spices, which are ground and pulverized finely.

Dry spices are often added to a dish directly. A good example is chicken soup with ground red pepper. To make a paste, wet spices are often mixed with butter or oil.

Wet spices are used in dressings, sauces and marinades. Common wet spices include oyster sauce, fish sauce and sesame oils, curry paste, hoisin sauce, and sesame seed oil.

To make Thai food at your home, it is important to understand which spices are best with particular ingredients.

For example, if you are using beef, you should use red pepper flakes. Use white pepper if you are using seafood like shrimp.

If you don’t have access or the means to order from an Asian market, it is possible to order online. This market has everything you need, including dried chilies as well as exotic herbs and spices.

You might want to try these Thai recipes next time you feel hungry.

Can you spice up 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. 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.

However, most recipes call for ground spice so you will need fresh whole spices. This makes sense, but it is expensive, takes time, and requires storage space.

Here is where the magic happens. It's possible to transform your favorite spices into a powdered form that is easy to use with a bit of creativity. Then you can mix them into your favourite beverages to create delicious spiced drinks.

These powders can be made in two ways. One method involves grinding whole spices to a fine powder. One method involves using a mortar-and-pestle to grind spices into a finer consistency.

It doesn't matter what method you choose, the result is easier to measure out than whole spices and easier to store. You won't run short of powder, and it keeps well.

Mixing different spices can create new flavors. For minty water you could mix spearmint with peppermint leaves. 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.

The possibilities are limitless. Powdered spices are a great way to make your drinks more flavorful or to enhance dishes like soups and salads.

What is the difference between cooking with whole spices and using ground spices? Ground Spices?

There isn't any difference between cooking with whole spices and ground spices. After harvesting, all spices are ground. It doesn't make a difference in terms of quality.

The price difference is however significant. Because of the labor involved in making whole spices, they cost more. The flavor is well worth the effort.

Bulk purchases of whole spices can often get you additional discounts. For example, you might receive a discount if you buy an entire bag of cinnamon sticks.

The same is true for nutmeg cloves ginger, cardamom, and ginger. These spices can be purchased in bulk to save money.

Whole spices also last longer than ground spices. This is because ground spices lose their potency quickly due to oxidation.

However, the main reason we recommend whole spices is because they add character to recipes.

For instance, you can make a delicious curry with whole turmeric instead of ground turmeric. Or you can grind whole coriander seeds to create a spice blend for chicken dishes.

Additionally, spices need to be ground. If you're buying whole spices it makes sense for you to buy large quantities. So you don't run short of spices.

How To

How to choose the right spices?

Cooking requires you to learn how to choose the right herbs for your recipes. There are hundreds of options, so where do you begin when deciding which ones to add to your pantry?

When choosing spices, there are three things you should consider: the flavour profile, shelf-life, and cost. The flavour profiles of different types of food can vary depending on whether they are used to cook meat, fish or vegetables, as well as pasta, eggs and bread. Once you've settled on a category, it's time to narrow down your choices.

Shelf lives vary greatly too. 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. Then there's the price. The price of spices can vary from $1 per tablespoon to over $100 per ounce. This means you have to strike the right balance between quality and cost.

It is also important to decide if you prefer organic ingredients or not. Organic products contain fewer chemicals and pesticides than conventional alternatives, making them better for your health and the environment. These products can also be more costly so make sure to weigh the benefits against the costs.

Online shopping is the best way for you to make sure that you have the right spices in your kitchen. Online retailers provide extensive information about each product including reviews, prices, ratings and ratings.

Once you have narrowed your selection, you are able to place an order directly at the retailer. When you have received your items, make sure to keep them in an airtight container.
