Frequently Asked Questions

What are the common condiments, spices and seasonings they use in their Thai dishes?

Thai cuisine is a mixture of Asian influences. Its roots lie in India, China, and Southeast Asia.

The essential ingredient of Thai food is freshness. It is easier to get the best flavour from ingredients if they are picked earlier and cooked quickly. This is why meat, fish, vegetables, fruits, herbs, nuts, seeds, and grains are often eaten raw and served hot.

Spices and sauces give dishes depth and color. Fresh basil, cilantro, mint, coriander (cilantro), lemongrass, ginger, turmeric, garlic, chillies, chilli paste, soy sauce, tamarind juice, oyster sauce, palm sugar, coconut milk, lime leaves, galangal root, curry powder, shrimp paste, fish sauce, tamarind water, rice vinegar, etc. are commonly used.

What's the Difference Between Cooking With Whole vs. Ground Spices?

There isn't any difference between cooking with whole spices and ground spices. After harvesting, spices are ground. It doesn't make a difference in terms of quality.

However, the price difference is substantial. Whole spices are more expensive due to the labour required for processing them. But the flavour is well worth it.

If you purchase whole spices in bulk, you might get an additional discount. A whole bag of cinnamon sticks might be eligible for a discount.

The same is true for nutmeg cloves ginger, cardamom, and ginger. This can help you save money on spices if you buy them in bulk.

Whole spices also last longer than ground spices. Because ground spices lose potency quickly from oxidation, this is why whole spices last longer than ground spices.

The main reason we recommend whole spices over dried is that they can add lots of flavor to recipes.

For instance, you can make a delicious curry with whole turmeric instead of ground turmeric. You can also grind whole coriander leaves to make a spice mix for chicken dishes.

Also, grinding spices takes time. If you're buying whole spices it makes sense for you to buy large quantities. So you don't run short of spices.

What kind of mint is used to make Thai food?

Thai cuisine has the most widespread use of lime-leaf mint (Mentha certvina).

It has a mild, lemony flavour that adds freshness and zing to dishes. To enhance Thai cuisine's flavour, other spices like galangal, coriander, lemongrass and garlic are often added.

Mint is a versatile herb and can be used in both sweet and savoury recipes. Using the right spices, herbs, and aromatics is essential to achieving delicious authentic Thai flavours.

Next time you make Thai food, add some lime-leafmint for more flavor!

Happy cooking!

Is garlic used in Thai cooking?

Thai cuisine uses garlic. Garlic is commonly added to salads.

In Thailand, garlic is chopped and fried with shallots, ginger, and spices. It is also often eaten with sticky rice.

It is common to mince garlic and then mix it with chili paste, salt, fish sauce and lime juice. This is "Nam Phrik" or "namphrik". Nam phrik can be served with grilled chicken and beef.

How to store your spices?

Keep them away from heat and light.

To store spices for longer periods of time, place them in a dark cupboard. This will help preserve the spices and prevent oxidation.

Your spices should be kept in cool and dry areas, away from direct sunlight. If the spice is placed near a heater or window, it may lose its flavour and aroma.

Spices work best in an airtight jar or tin. Make sure that there is no moisture in any plastic containers you store spices in.

Check the seal every time you open and reseal it. Heat can cause moisture to spoil your product.

You don't have to throw out leftover spices. Instead, use them up by adding them to other dishes. You can even freeze them to extend their shelf life.

What's the difference of curry and curried

There is no difference in spelling. Both words refer to the same thing: an Indian dish combining meat or vegetables with various seasonings.

Curry is derived in Hindi from kari, which means to rub. This refers the way that the spice mix is applied onto the food. Curry foods are usually cooked until golden brown.

While curried dishes were once reserved only for special occasions they are now enjoyed regularly throughout India. They can be made with chicken, beef or lamb and include vegetables as well.

Curried dishes are typically served alongside plain white rice. Other common accompaniments include raita (a yogurt sauce) and chutney (a sweet relish).

Which are the best Thai spice?

Galangal (lemongrass), coriander, turmeric and cinnamon are the best Thai spice. Cayenne pepper and clove are also good spices.

Other valuable spices include bay leaves, curry, pandan, curry leaves. Kaffir lime leaves. Vanilla beans. Tamarind pods. Lemon grass. Basil.

How To

How to Make a Garlic Press

A garlic press is an essential tool for any home cook. It can be used to quickly mince garlic into a paste. It can also be used to crush whole garlic cloves into buttery spreads or garlic salt.

However, if you don’t already have a garlic pressing machine, you might wonder how to get one. These tips will help you get started.

First, you need a large dish. Place the bowl under the pressure regulator and pour the crushed garlic inside. Now, set the pressure regulator valve to the maximum.

Next, move the handle clockwise so that you hear a click. The top end of the press should lift and reveal a flat area that allows you to slide your blade back and forth across the bowl. Continue turning the handle in a clockwise direction until the blades come to a close.

Finally, take out the pressed garlic.

These are just a few of the many ways you can use this versatile tool.

• Make minced garlic soups, sauces for salads, dips and seasonings.
• To crush whole garlic cloves, use the press to create a buttery spread
• Crush whole cloves of garlic onto pizza dough before baking
• Combine roasted garlic with mashed potatoes and creamy polenta
• The press can be used to make pesto from garlic
• Puree garlic into a smooth vinaigrette
