Frequently Asked Questions

How to Store Spices

Keep them in an airtight container away from light 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.

Keep your spices out of direct sunlight and in a cool dry place. The spice may lose flavour and aroma if placed near a window or heater.

Spices need to be kept in an airtight glass container or tin. If storing in plastic containers, make sure there is no moisture inside the container.

It is vital to always check the seal after opening, resealing and before storing.

Do not throw away any spices that you have left over. Use them instead by adding them into other dishes. They can be frozen to prolong their shelf-life.

Thai food includes paprika.

Yes. Yes.

Thai cuisine, Mexican, Spanish and Indian food, as well as Thai and Balkan dishes, contain paprika.

Paprika can been traced back to Ancient Greece over 5,000 years ago. The Hungarian language "pepper" is the origin of "paprika".

Which Thai spice do I need to cook Thai food at home?

For authentic Thai cooking at home, you need to be familiar with five essential spices: cayenne, coriander, turmeric, cinnamon, and black pepper. Each ingredient has its own unique flavour profile, and each plays an important role in creating delicious dishes.

Cinnamon adds sweetness, while black pepper brings out savoury flavours. Coriander seeds add a spicy kick, while turmeric gives curry powder its signature yellow colour. Cayenne peppers heat up the dish, while cilantro adds flavor and freshness. The final touch is cinnamon which gives depth and complexity to any dish.

These spices are available at most grocery stores. However, if you prefer to order them online, we have recommendations.

What are the main spices, condiments, seasonings and herbs used in Thai cuisine?

Thai cuisine is a mixture of Asian influences. Its roots are found in India and China, as well as Southeast Asia.

The essential ingredient of Thai food is freshness. It is easier to get the best flavour from ingredients if they are picked earlier and cooked quickly. This is why meats and fish, as well as vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds and grains, are often eaten raw and served warm.

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. These ingredients are common.

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. It allows you to efficiently mince garlic into a paste or puree it into a smooth sauce, soup, or salad dressing. It is also useful for crushing whole cloves of garlic into buttery spreads and garlic salt.

It's possible to be confused if you don’t yet own a garlicpress. These tips will help you get started.

First, you need a large dish. Then, place the bowl under the press and add the crushed garlic. Now, adjust the pressure regulator valve until it reaches maximum.

Next, move the handle clockwise so that you hear a click. You will be able to slide the blade over the bowl by lifting the top part of your press. Continue turning the handle counterclockwise until the blades close.

Finally, take the pressed garlic out and enjoy!

Here are some ways to make this versatile tool even more useful:

• 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
• Roasted garlic can be incorporated into creamy polenta or mashed potatoes.
• The press can be used to make pesto from garlic
• Puree garlic in a smooth vinaigrette
