The term Thai spice is a common phrase that we've heard a lot, but don't really know what it means. But once we start to feel the heat in our mouths, we wonder why it hasn't been eaten more.

Thais have been using herbs and spices in their cooking since antiquity to add flavor to food. Thai, which means "to make", comes from the Sanskrit word.

Even today, most Thais prefer to eat spicy foods. This preference is often explained by the hot climate in Thailand that makes it difficult to stay warm while drinking hot drinks. Thais consume more chili peppers than Americans and Europeans.

A local Asian grocery store is the best place to learn more about Thai spice. There are many options available, including dried chilies as well as fresh basil leaves and curry paste.

You might also find whole peppercorns and cloves as well as cinnamon sticks, star anise pods (star anise), cardamom pods ginger root, cumin seeds coriander seeds seeds, fennel seed, nutmeg mace, mustard seeds, saffron threads garlic, onion, rice vinegar, and tamarind juice.

Thai cuisine has two kinds of spices: wet and dry. The dry spices are usually ground while the wet spices are crushed or pounded finely.

Dry spices are usually added to a dish. A good example is chicken soup with ground red pepper. To make a paste, wet spices are often mixed with butter or oil.

Wet spices are commonly used in marinades and sauces. Some common wet spices include fish sauce, oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, curry paste, and hoisin sauce.

Thai recipes can be prepared at home by knowing which spices pair well with what ingredients.

Red pepper flakes should be used if you're using beef. White pepper is better for seafood such as shrimp.

You can also order online if your Asian market is not available. You will find everything from dried chilies to exotic herbs and spices here.
