Frequently Asked Questions

Which Thai spice do I need to cook Thai food at home?

For authentic Thai cooking at home, you need to be familiar with five essential spices: cayenne, coriander, turmeric, cinnamon, and black pepper. Each ingredient has a unique flavor profile and plays an essential role in creating 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 are hot, and cilantro adds freshness. Cinnamon adds complexity and depth to any dish.

Each of these spices is available in your local grocery. If you'd rather buy them online, the following are our recommendations.

What is the difference between curried curry and curried curry?

It doesn't matter how the spelling is written. Both words mean the same thing: Indian cuisine that includes meat and vegetables mixed with different 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.

Although curried dishes used to be reserved for special occasions, today they are enjoyed all over India. They can include chicken, beef, lamb, fish, vegetables, and rice.

Curried dishes can be served alongside plain white or brown rice. A raita (a yogurt-based sauce) or a chutney is another common accompaniment.

Thai cuisine is famous for its complex flavor profiles. These flavors are created from unique, flavorful spices which create delicious dishes.

Can you add spice into a drink

I love the way spices add flavour to food. But how can you make them live when they're used in drinks.

Spices are great because they bring out the best in any beverage. There's nothing better than adding cinnamon or nutmeg in your glass of wine or beer, whether it's coffee, tea, hot chocolate, or cocktails.

But most recipes call for ground spices, meaning you'll need fresh whole spices. This makes sense, but it is expensive, takes time, and requires storage space.

This is where magic happens. You can transform your favourite spices into an easy-to-use powdered form with ingenuity. These spices can be mixed into favorite beverages to create tasty spiced drinks.

These powders can be made in two ways. A second method is to grind whole spices into fine powder. One method involves using a mortar-and-pestle to grind spices into a finer consistency.

You'll find it easier to make powder than whole spices, regardless of the method. Powder keeps well, so you will never run out.

You can even experiment with mixing different spices to create new flavours. Peppermint and spearmint can be combined to make minty water. To make spicy ginger tea, you can also combine ginger and cardamom pods.

Once you've mastered making powdered spices, you can apply the same technique to herbs. Some of the most common herbs are basil, rosemary, thyme, oregano and sage.

The possibilities are limitless. Powdered spices are a great way to make your drinks more flavorful or to enhance dishes like soups and salads.

What are the Primary Flavours In Thai Cooking?

Thai cuisine includes several distinct regional cuisines. These include Northern and Central Thai cuisines, as well as Southern, Eastern, Western, Eastern, Western, Northeastern Thai food. Each region is unique in its flavour profiles.

Thai food is known for its sweet, salty and sour flavors.

Thais consider sweetness essential because it makes dishes taste good. Thai cuisine includes sweet ingredients like palm sugar (gulamelaka) or coconut milk.

In Thailand, sourness is very popular. Hot dishes often pair well with sour foods. This helps to balance out the heat.

Thai food has a lot of spicy ingredients. Thai cuisine is rich in spices like galangal, ginger root and chilli pepper.

How To

How to store cooking spices?

Here's how to store your cooking spices for maximum performance. We must first understand the science behind food storage.

Spices are stored in airtight containers away from the light because exposure to light diminishes their flavour. This is due to oxygen combining with organic compounds, such as spices.

To prevent oxidation of spices, keep them in dark cupboards. Spice tends to lose its flavour quickly if these conditions aren't met.

Keep spices in airtight containers away from direct sun to preserve their flavour.

To make flavoured drinks, you can add herbs or spices to water. Mix two teaspoons of ground cinnamon and 1/2 cup warm water. Stir well. Add a squeeze or lemon juice to the mixture and serve immediately.

You can add dried herbs and spices to soups, stews, casseroles, pasta, rice dishes, salads, and desserts. Just sprinkle the spice mix evenly over the dish. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes before you serve.

If you have leftover cooked vegetables, fruit, meats, poultry, fish, shellfish, eggs, cheese, bread, crackers, cookies, cakes, pies, or puddings, they can be added to your favourite recipes as snacks.

To get the best flavours from fresh herbs and spices, cut them or tear them and add them to hot foods. Also, you can freeze herbs and spice by placing them into ice cube dishes or muffin cups. Once frozen, transfer to freezer bags or zip-top plastic bags.
