Frequently Asked Questions
What are the principal Flavours in Thai Cuisine?
Thai cuisine includes several distinct regional cuisines. These include Northern Thai food, Central Thai food, Southern Thai food, Eastern Thai food, Western Thai food, and Northeastern Thai. Each region has its distinctive flavour profile.
Thai food is known for its sweet, salty and sour flavors.
Thais love sweetness because it makes their dishes more delicious. Thai cuisine relies heavily on sweet ingredients, such as coconut milk (gula melaka), and palm sugar.
Thailand is also a popular place for sourness. Hot dishes are often served with sour foods. This combination balances out the heat.
Thai food has a lot of spicy ingredients. Spices such as chilli pepper, galangal, ginger root, and garlic are used extensively in Thai recipes.
Does Thai use ginger?
The answer is yes. Traditional Thai cooking makes extensive use of ginger. Ginger is often used to make stir-fries and soups. It is also used in desserts, drinks, such a lassis.
Ginger is native to China, Japan, and Korea, and its origins date back more than 5,000 years. It is believed it originated in Southeast Asia. There, it was used for medicinal purposes.
Ginger has been known to improve digestion and reduce nausea. It may even help prevent migraines. Ginger can also be used to treat arthritis, muscle spasms, joint pains, or relieve them.
Ginger is most often fresh in Thailand. The ginger root is cut into thin strips, dried and stored in a sealed container for future use. From Asian markets, ginger root can be bought in cans and jars.
What is the difference between cooking Whole and Ground Spices? Ground Spices?
There is no difference between cooking whole spices and with ground spices. All spices can be ground once they have been harvested. The quality is the same.
However, the price difference is substantial. Whole spices are more expensive because of the labor required to process them. But the flavour is worth it.
Buy whole spices and you'll often receive additional discounts. A whole bag of cinnamon sticks might be eligible for a discount.
This is true for cloves, ginger and cardamom. These spices can be purchased in bulk to save money.
Whole spices can also last longer than the 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.
You can make delicious curry using whole turmeric, instead of ground turmeric. You can also use whole coriander to create a spice combination for chicken dishes.
Additionally, spices need to be ground. It is sensible to purchase large quantities when buying whole spices. So that you don’t run out of spices, it’s a smart move.

How To
How to store cooking spices?
How to store cooking spices in a way that maximizes their performance. First, we must understand how food is stored.
Spices are stored in airtight containers away from the light because exposure to light diminishes their flavour. This is because oxygen reacts with organic compounds like those in spices to cause oxidation.
Spices should be kept in the dark cupboards and sealed tightly in airtight containers to prevent oxidation. If these conditions are not met, spices will quickly lose their flavour.
Keep spices fresh by storing them in airtight jars out of direct sunlight.
You can add herbs and spices to water to make a flavoured drink. Mix 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon with 1/2 cup of warm liquid and stir. Add a squeeze or lemon juice to the mixture and serve immediately.
Dried herbs and spices can be added to soups and stews, casseroles and rice dishes. Simply sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the dish and sit for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Leftover cooked vegetables, fruits and meats, as well as leftover cheese, breads, crackers, cookies or cakes can be added to favorite recipes for snacks.
If you want to take advantage of the flavours of fresh herbs and spices, chop or tear them up and add them to foods while they're still hot. It is also possible to freeze herbs and spices in muffin cups or ice cube trays. Transfer frozen items to zip-top or freezer bags.
