Saffron is our love affair; a culinary crescendo that evokes a warmth of its own. But cooking is so much more than a single ingredient — it’s also about respect.

And that’s why we’re inviting everyone to join us – to share their recipes, explore new flavors and be part of something special. We know everyone has something delicious to offer!

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the most recognizable ingredient in Thai food?
Two main ingredients are the heart of Thai cuisine: curry and rice. This combination creates an unforgettable taste.
This combination is known in Thailand as "Khao Pa Krai," meaning "the best dish." It happens when these two basic foods are combined and make a delicious, irresistible dish.
The same goes for life. Combining hard work and perseverance can lead to great success.
The right ingredients can make you successful, like Khao Pad Krai: passion and purpose. When you combine these ingredients, you can create something remarkable.
Next time you feel like eating Thai food, remember that it takes more than just rice and curry to make a memorable meal. Experiment with other ingredients to see what fun it can be.
What is the difference in curry and curried?
It doesn't matter how the spelling is written. Both words are used to describe the same thing: Indian dishes that combine meat or vegetables with various seasonings.
Curry comes from Hindi word kari that means "to rub". It refers how spice mixtures are applied to food. Curry is typically prepared until the food is golden brown.
Curried dishes were once reserved for special occasions, but today, they're enjoyed frequently throughout India. You can choose from chicken, beef, lamb or fish as well as vegetables and rice.
Plain white rice is commonly served with curried meals. You can also add raita (a yogurt sauce), or chutney (a sweet relish).
Can you add spice into a drink
I love how spices bring flavour to food. How can you make spices come to life when they are used in drinks?
Spices add a wonderful depth to any beverage. Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to your favorite beverage, such as coffee, tea, or hot chocolate.
But, since most recipes call to ground spices, you'll need whole spices. This makes sense, but it is expensive, takes time, and requires storage space.
Here's where the magic happens. It's possible to transform your favorite spices into a powdered form that is easy to use with a bit of creativity. You can then mix the spices into your favorite beverages to make delicious spiced drinks.
Two ways can you make powders. The first involves the grinding of whole spices to make fine powder. Another method is to use a mortar & pestle to grind the spices until they are finely ground.
Whatever method you choose to use, you will find that powders are much easier than whole spices. The powder is stable so you don't run low on stock.
You can experiment with mixing spices to create different flavours. You could make minty water by combining spearmint and peppermint. Or ginger and cardamom pods to make spicy ginger tea.
Once you've learned how to make powdered spices from scratch, you can apply the same process to herbs. Some popular herbs include basil, oregano, rosemary, thyme, and sage.
There are so many possibilities. Powdered spices can enhance the flavor and texture of beverages, such as soups or salads, as well as the taste of pasta.

How To
How to store spices for cooking?
I will tell you how to store cooking spices for optimal performance. We must first understand the science behind food storage.
Because spices lose their flavour when exposed to the sun, they are best kept out of reach from light. This is because oxygen reacts with organic compounds like those in spices to cause oxidation.
To avoid oxidation, spice should be kept in dark cupboards. Spice tends to lose its flavour quickly if these conditions aren't met.
You can preserve the flavor of spices by keeping them in sealed jars, away from direct sunlight.
To make flavoured drinks, you can add herbs or spices to water. For example, mix two teaspoons of ground cinnamon with 1/2 cup of warm water and stir well. Add a squeezed lemon juice and serve immediately.
Dried herbs can be added to soups stews, casseroles pasta dishes rice dishes salads and desserts. Simply sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the dish and sit for 5-10 minutes before serving.
As snacks, leftover cooked vegetables and fruits can be added into your favourite recipes.
You can enjoy the fresh flavours of fresh herbs or spices by chopping them up and adding them to food while they are still hot. It is also possible to freeze herbs and spices in muffin cups or ice cube trays. Once frozen, place them in freezer bags or zip-top bags.
