Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best Thai spices?

Galangal, coriander and turmeric are the best Thai spices. 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.

Can you add spice into a drink

I love how spices add flavor to food. But how do you make spices liven up when they are added to drinks?

Spices can bring out the best of any beverage. Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to your favorite beverage, such as coffee, tea, or hot chocolate.

However, most recipes call for ground spice so you will need fresh whole spices. This is sensible, but it can be expensive, time-consuming, 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.

There are two possible ways to create these powders. One method involves grinding whole spices into fine powder. A mortar and pestle is another method to grind the spices to a finer consistency.

Whichever method you choose, you'll find that the resulting powder is much easier to measure out and store than whole spices. Powder keeps well, so you will never run out.

Mixing spices can be fun to create new flavors. To make minty water, you can combine spearmint and peppermint leaves. You can also make spicy ginger-ginger tea by combining ginger and cardamom seeds.

Once you've learned how to make powdered spices from scratch, you can apply the same process to herbs. Some of the most common herbs are basil, rosemary, thyme, oregano and sage.

There are so many possibilities. Use powdered spices to give your beverages extra flavour or to enhance the taste of dishes such as soups, salads, and pasta.

What is the most popular ingredient in Thai cooking?

Thailand's two main ingredients form the heart of all Thai dishes. They are rice and curry. This combination creates an unforgettable taste.

Thais call this combination "Khao pad Krai," which translates to "the best dish." This is because the two basic foods can be combined to create something truly delicious and irresistible.

The same applies to life. The right combination of perseverance and hard work can bring you great success.

Combining passion and purpose, as Khao Pad Krai has shown, can help you succeed. Combine them and you will create something truly extraordinary.

If you find yourself craving Thai food, keep in mind that Thai food is more than rice and curry. Try out other ingredients and have fun!
