Almond Flour vs. Almond Meal: What's the Difference?
Almond meal can be substituted for almond flour and is versatile enough to be used in baking, cooking and even making nut-free meals.
Almond flour could also contain gluten making it difficult for some people to digest. Gluten-free foods should be avoided if you have celiac Disease or any other digestive condition.
Almond flour may not be considered a "superfood", per se, but it contains healthy fats as well as fibre, protein and vitamin E.
The nutritional benefits of almond meal include magnesium and copper, iron and zinc, manganese as well as potassium and vitamin C.
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 high in antioxidants, such as phenolics, flavonoids and proanthocyanidins. These compounds help to prevent oxidative damage from 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 can be purchased with almond milk that has been supplemented with nutrients.
What kind of mint are used in Thai cuisine?
Thai cuisine has the most widespread use of lime-leaf mint (Mentha certvina).
Its mild, lemony taste adds freshness and zest to dishes. Other spices such as lemongrass, galangal, garlic and coriander are also frequently added to enhance the flavour of Thai dishes.
Mint is versatile and can be used both in sweet and savoury recipes. For authentic Thai flavours, you must use the right spices and herbs.
Next time you make Thai food, add some lime-leafmint for more flavor!
Happy cooking!
How to Store Spices
Keep them out of the sun and heat.
To store spices for longer periods of time, place them in a dark cupboard. This will keep the spices fresh and prevent any oxidation.
Keep spices away from direct sunlight in a dry, cool place. If the spice is placed near a heater or window, it may lose its flavour and aroma.
Spices are best stored in an airtight glass jar or tin. You should ensure that the containers are not moistened if you store them in plastic containers.
It is vital to always check the seal after opening, resealing and before storing.
Don't toss out any leftover spices. You can make use of them by adding them to your favorite dishes. For an extended shelf life, you can freeze the vegetables.
What are the best Thai spices?
Galangal (lemongrass), coriander, turmeric and cinnamon are the best Thai spice. Some other good spices include cayenne pepper, clove, cardamom, black peppercorn, fennel seeds, star anise, and cloves.
Some other valuable spices include rose petals, bay leaves, curry leaves, pandan leaves, kaffir lime leaves, vanilla beans, tamarind pods, lemon grass, basil, and mint.

How To
How to choose the right spices?
It is important to know how you can choose the right spices and herbs to cook. There are many options available, so how do you choose which ones to add in your pantry?
Three main factors should be considered when selecting spices: price, shelf life and flavour profile. Flavour profiles differ depending on whether you're cooking meat, poultry, fish, vegetables, beans, grains, pasta, eggs, dessert, bread, etc. Once you have chosen a category, you can narrow down your choices by taking into account these differences.
You will also find that shelf lives can vary. Some spices last forever, while others expire quickly. Cayenne pepper can last for many years, while oregano only loses its potency in two months. Then there's the price. Spices can cost anywhere from $1 per tablespoon up to $100 per ounce. This means that spice prices can vary widely.
It is also important to decide if you prefer organic ingredients or not. Organic products have fewer pesticides and chemicals that conventional products, which is better for your health as well as the environment. These products can also be more costly so make sure to weigh the benefits against the costs.
Online shopping is the best option to find the right spices. Online retailers provide detailed information on each product, including ingredient lists, pricing, reviews, and ratings.
Once you have narrowed your selection, you are able to place an order directly at the retailer. When you have received your items, make sure to keep them in an airtight container.
