Frequently Asked Questions

What are the uses of Thai spice?

The term Thai spice is a common phrase that we've heard a lot, but don't really know what it means. We are left wondering why we don't eat more Thai spice when our mouths water.

It isn't just any spice. It's an ingredient that can add flavor and depth in dishes that otherwise would be bland.

Thousands of recipes call for Thai spices, but few of them include the real deal. So let's help you figure out how to ensure you're adding these delicious flavors to your meals.

Thais have used herbs and spices since ancient times to enhance food and drink. Thai comes from the Sanskrit term for "to prepare".

Most Thais like spicy food, 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 also consume more chili peppers per capita than Americans and Europeans.

A local Asian grocery store is the best place to learn more about Thai spice. There you will find a variety of ingredients such as dried chilies fresh basil leaves curry paste and ground black pepper.

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.

There are two types of spices in Thai cuisine: dry and wet. Dry spices are generally ground, while wet spices can be crushed or pounded finely.

Dry spices are often added to a dish directly. 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 can be used in sauces, dressings, and marinades. Some common wet spices include fish sauce, oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, curry paste, and hoisin sauce.

Thai cuisine can be made at home by learning which spices work well with specific ingredients.

Red pepper flakes are recommended for beef. Use white pepper instead if you have seafood such as shrimp.

You can also order online if your Asian market is not available. There are many options for exotic herbs, spices and dried chilies.

Does Thai use ginger?

The answer is yes. In traditional Thai cuisine, ginger is used extensively. It is often added to stir-fries and soups and is also commonly used in desserts and drinks such as 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 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 most commonly used fresh in Thailand. The ginger root is then cut into thin strips. Once dried, it can be stored for future use. From Asian markets, ginger root can be bought in cans and jars.

What Thai spice will I need to make Thai food home?

To make authentic Thai food at home, you'll need to master five essential spices: black pepper, cayenne, coriander seeds, turmeric, and cinnamon. Each ingredient plays a crucial role in the creation delicious dishes.

Cinnamon brings out the sweetness of black pepper, while white pepper enhances the savoury flavours. Curry powder gets its yellow hue from turmeric and coriander seeds. Cayenne peppers heat up the dish, while cilantro adds flavor and freshness. Cinnamon adds complexity and depth to any dish.

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

How To

How to Cut Shiitake Mushrooms

So the shiitakes have been doing well. They are fine. But how do they be cut? We have tried everything, even using scissors. But they keep falling out our hands. What's going on here?

The trick is simple. You must put a rubber band around the mushroom's stem and twist it tight. You won't slip or cut yourself.

You may think it sounds too easy. It is. But it's also very useful.

The rubber band makes stems slippery, making them feel more natural when picked up. Plus, it doesn't hurt to hold the stem tightly.

Go ahead, try it. It's so easy to chop mushrooms now.
