What purpose is Thai spice used?

There are thousands of Thai recipes, but very few include the authentic flavor. Let's learn how to include these delicious flavors in your meals.
Thais have been cooking with herbs, spices and other flavors since ancient times. The name Thai originates from the Sanskrit word for "to cook."
Today, Thais still love spicy food. This preference can often be attributed to Thailand's hot weather, which makes it hard to stay warm without hot beverages. Additionally, Thais consume much more chili peppers than Europeans or Americans.

Thai cuisine uses both dry and wet spices. The dry spices are usually ground while the wet spices are crushed or pounded finely.
Dry spices are added directly to a dish. For example, ground red pepper is sprinkled onto chicken soup. A paste is made by combining wet spices and oil with butter or butter.
Wet spices are usually used in marinades, sauces, and dressings. Fish sauce, oyster sauces, sesame and sesame olive oils, curry paste and hoisin are some of the most common wet spice options.

How To
How to store cooking spices?
I will tell you how to store cooking spices for optimal performance. We must first understand the science behind food storage.
Because light can diminish the flavour of spices, they should be kept in sealed containers. This is due to oxygen combining with organic compounds, such as spices.
To prevent oxidation, spices should be stored in dark cupboards. Spice tends to lose its flavour quickly if these conditions aren't met.
Keep spices fresh by storing them in airtight jars out of direct sunlight.
For a flavoured beverage, add herbs and spices. Mix 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon with 1/2 cup of warm liquid and stir. Serve immediately by adding a squeeze lemon juice.
Dry herbs and spices can also be used in soups, stews or casseroles. Place the spice mixture on top of the dish and allow it to rest for 5-10 mins before serving.
You can add leftover cooked vegetables, fruits, meats and shellfish to your favorite recipes as 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. You can freeze herbs or spices by placing them on ice cube tray or muffin cups. Once frozen, transfer to freezer bags or zip-top plastic bags.
