Frequently Asked Questions
Can garlic be used in Thai cooking
Thai cuisine makes use of garlic. Garlic is used often in Thai cuisine, such as soups, stir fries, curries, sauces, and salads.
In Thailand, garlic can be chopped and fried along with ginger and shallots. You can also eat it with sticky rice.
Garlic is best chopped finely and mixed with oil, chilli paste, fish sauce, lime juice and oil. This mixture is called "Nam Phrik" (namphrik). Nam phrik often comes with grilled chicken breast or beef.

Does Thai use ginger?
Yes. Ginger is used extensively in traditional Thai cooking. It is commonly added to stir-fries or soups. Ginger is also used in desserts such as lassis.
Ginger is a native to China and Japan. The origins of ginger go back over 5,000 year. It is believed to have originated in Southeast Asia, where it was cultivated for medicinal purposes.
Ginger is well-known for its ability to relieve nausea and stimulate digestion. It may even help prevent migraines. Ginger aids in relieving muscle spasms and joint pains. It can also treat arthritis.
Ginger is often eaten fresh in Thailand. Ginger root is first cut into thin strips before drying and stored. You can buy ginger root in jars or cans from Asian markets.
Almond Meal vs. Almond Flour: What's the Difference?
An almond meal, which can be used as an almond flour substitute, is more versatile than other almond flours because it can be used for baking and cooking, as well as making nut free dishes.
Almond flour can also contain gluten which makes it more difficult to digest. It is important to avoid gluten-free products if you have celiac or other digestive disorders.
While almond flour isn't considered a "superfood" per se, it contains healthy fats, fibre, protein, and vitamin E. It's also low in calories and sodium and contains 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 also rich in antioxidants such as flavonoids and phenolics. These compounds are effective in preventing oxidative damages caused by free radicals.
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 is commonly sold together with almondmilk, which has additional nutrients.
What's the difference between curried and curry?
There is no difference between the spellings. Both words refer to the same thing: an Indian dish combining meat or vegetables with various seasonings.
Curry is derived in Hindi from kari, which means to rub. This refers the way that the spice mix is applied onto the food. Curry foods are usually cooked until golden brown.
Curried dishes were once reserved for special occasions, but today, they're enjoyed frequently throughout India. They can include chicken, beef, lamb, fish, vegetables, and rice.
Plain white rice is commonly served with curried meals. You can also add raita (a yogurt sauce), or chutney (a sweet relish).

How To
How to cut Shiitake Mushrooms
The shiitakes are doing well. There's nothing wrong with them. How do we cut them? We've tried everything, even scissors. But they just keep slipping from our hands. What's going on here?
Well, there's a trick for that. You must put a rubber band around the mushroom's stem and twist it tight. You won't slip, and you won't be cut.
This may seem too simple. It is. It's also extremely effective.
The rubber band makes stems slippery, making them feel more natural when picked up. It's a good idea to secure the stem.
Now, go ahead and try it. You will be amazed at the ease with which you can now cut mushrooms.
