Frequently Asked Questions

Thai food uses paprika?

Yes. It is an ingredient in many dishes, including Pad See Ew (Thai fried rice), from eggs cooked in coconut milk.

Paprika is found in Thai food and Mexican, Italian, Spanish, Indian, Chinese, French, Moroccan, Middle Eastern, Lebanese, Greek, Turkish, and Balkan cuisines.

Paprika can also be traced back to Ancient Greece, more than 5,000 year ago. The Hungarian language means "pepper" and the word "paprika".

How to Store Spices

Keep them in an airtight container away from light and heat.

If you want to keep spices fresh for a long time, place them into a dark cupboard. This will help keep them fresh and prevent any deterioration due to oxidation.

Keep spices dry and away from sunlight in a cool, dry place. It is possible for the spice to lose its flavor and aroma if it's placed in close proximity to a window or heater.

Spices need to be kept in an airtight glass container 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.

Do not throw away any spices that you have left over. Don't throw them away, instead use them in new recipes. To extend their shelf life, you can freeze them.

Almond Meal vs. Almond Flour: What's the Difference?

Almond meal can be substituted for almond flour and is versatile enough to be used in baking, cooking and even making nut-free meals.

Almond flour might also contain gluten, which can make it hard to digest. If you have celiac disease or another digestive disorder, it's essential to avoid gluten-free foods.

Although almond flour isn’t considered to be a “superfood”, it is rich in healthy fats and fibre.

The almond meal provides nutritional benefits such as magnesium, iron, zinc and manganese. It also contains vitamin A, B1 (thiamin), C, and folate.

Almond flour is made of almonds. Almond oil is made from polyunsaturated, monounsaturated, fatty oils. Both can lower LDL cholesterol and increase HDL cholesterol.

Almond flour is also rich in antioxidants such as flavonoids and phenolics. These compounds are effective in preventing oxidative damages caused by free radicals.

A study published in the Journal of Agricultural Food Chemistry found that almond flour had antioxidant activity equivalent to that of blueberries, cranberries, pomegranates, and red wine grape juice.

Almond flour is typically sold along with almond milk, which is fortified to add additional nutrients.

What's the difference between cooking whole and with ground spices? Ground Spices?

There is no difference in cooking with whole spices and cooked with ground spices. After harvesting, all spices are ground. This ensures that there are no differences in the quality of spices.

However, the price differences are significant. Whole spices are more expensive due to the labour required for processing them. However, the flavor is worth it.

Buy whole spices and you'll often receive additional discounts. An example: If you buy an entire bag full of cinnamon sticks, you might get a discount.

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

Ground spices are also more durable than whole spices. Ground spices lose their potency very quickly due to oxidation.

However, the main reason we recommend whole spices is because they add character to recipes.

You can make delicious curry using whole turmeric, instead of ground turmeric. For chicken dishes, whole coriander seeds can be ground to make a spice blend.

The process of grinding spices takes a lot of time. It is sensible to purchase large quantities when buying whole spices. This will ensure that you don't run out of spices quickly.

How To

How to store cooking spice?

Here's how to store your cooking spices for maximum performance. First, we must understand how food is stored.

Because light can diminish the flavour of spices, they should be kept in sealed containers. This is because oxygen reacts with organic compounds like those in spices to cause oxidation.

Spices should be kept in the dark cupboards and sealed tightly in airtight containers to prevent oxidation. Spice tends to lose its flavour quickly if these conditions aren't met.

The best way to preserve the flavour of spices is to keep them in airtight jars away from direct sunlight.

For a flavoured beverage, add herbs and spices. Mix two teaspoons of ground cinnamon and 1/2 cup warm water. Stir well. Serve immediately by adding a squeeze lemon juice.

You can add dried herbs and spices to soups, stews, casseroles, pasta, rice dishes, salads, and desserts. Place the spice mixture on top of the dish and allow it to rest for 5-10 mins before serving.

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.

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. You can also freeze herbs and spices by placing them in ice cube trays or muffin cups and freezing them. Once frozen, transfer to freezer bags or zip-top plastic bags.
