What is Thai spice used for?
We've all heard the term "Thai spice" thrown around without knowing exactly what it means. It makes our mouths water when we try it.
But it isn't just any old spice. It's an essential ingredient that adds flavor and depth to dishes that would otherwise be bland.
While there are thousands of Thai-inspired recipes out there, few of them contain the real thing. Let's talk about how to make sure you add these amazing flavors to your meals.
Thais have been using herbs and spices in their cooking since antiquity to add flavor to food. The name Thai originates from the Sanskrit word for "to cook."
Thais are still fond of spicy foods. This preference is often due to the heat in Thailand which makes it difficult for people to stay warm without hot drinks. Thais consume more chili peppers than Americans and Europeans.
A local Asian grocery store is the best place to learn more about Thai spice. There are many options available, including dried chilies as well as fresh basil leaves and curry paste.
You may also come across whole peppercorns, cloves, cinnamon sticks, star anise, cardamom pods, ginger root, turmeric powder, cumin seeds, coriander seeds, fennel seeds, nutmeg, mace, mustard seed, saffron threads, garlic, onion, rice vinegar and tamarind juice.
Thai cuisine offers two types of spices: dry and moist. The dry spices are usually ground while the wet spices are crushed or pounded finely.
Dry spices are typically added directly to a dish. You can sprinkle ground red pepper on your chicken soup. To make a paste, wet spices are often mixed with butter or oil.
Wet spices are usually used in marinades, sauces, and dressings. Common wet spices include oyster sauce, fish sauce and sesame oils, curry paste, hoisin sauce, and sesame seed oil.
If you want to try making Thai dishes at home, you need to know which spices go well with certain ingredients.
Red pepper flakes should be used if you're using beef. White pepper is better for seafood such as shrimp.
Finally, you can always order online if you don't have access to a good quality Asian market. You will find everything from dried chilies to exotic herbs and spices here.

How To
How to Cut Shiitake Mushrooms
The shiitakes seem to be doing well. They are fine. But how do we cut them without cutting ourselves? We've tried everything, even scissors. We keep losing them. What's going on here?
There's a trick to that. Place a rubber band on the stem of the mushroom and twist it tight. You won't slip, and you won't be cut.
It may sound too simple. It is. It's also extremely effective.
The rubber band makes the stem slippery, so it feels natural when you pick it up. The stem can be held securely.
Go ahead, try it. It will be so much easier to cut mushrooms than ever before.
