Frequently Asked Questions

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

There isn't any difference between cooking with whole spices and ground spices. All spices can be ground once they have been harvested. So there is no difference in quality.

But the price gap is significant. Whole spices cost more because of the labour involved in processing them. The flavor is well worth the effort.

If you purchase whole spices in bulk, you might get an additional discount. For example, you might receive a discount if you buy an entire bag of cinnamon sticks.

It is the same for cardamom and cloves as well as ginger, ginger, nutmeg, and ginger. These spices can be purchased in bulk to save money.

Ground spices last much longer than whole spices. Ground spices quickly lose their potency due to oxidation.

We recommend buying whole spices because they add flavor to your recipes.

Whole turmeric can be used to make delicious curry. Or you can grind whole coriander seeds to create a spice blend for chicken dishes.

The process of grinding spices takes a lot of time. It makes sense to purchase large quantities of whole spices when you are buying them. That way, you won't run out of spices too fast.

What are the primary Flavours in Thai cooking?

Thai cuisine includes several distinct regional cuisines. These include Northern Thai food, Central Thai food, Southern Thai food, Eastern Thai food, Western Thai food, and Northeastern Thai. Each region has its own unique flavour profile.

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

Thais appreciate sweetness. It makes Thai food taste better. Thai cuisine relies heavily on sweet ingredients, such as coconut milk (gula melaka), and palm sugar.

Thailand is also known for its sourness. Hot dishes often pair well with sour foods. This helps to balance out the heat.

Thai food also includes spicy food. Thai dishes often use spices such as chili pepper, galangal or ginger root.

How to store your spices?

Keep them away from heat and light.

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.

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 can be best kept in an airtight container or tin. Avoid storing spices in plastic containers.

It is vital to always check the seal after opening, resealing and before storing.

You don't have to throw out leftover spices. You can make use of them by adding them to your favorite dishes. They can be frozen to prolong their shelf-life.

Does Thai use ginger?

Yes. Traditional Thai cooking makes extensive use of ginger. It is commonly added to stir-fries or soups. Ginger is also used in desserts such as lassis.

Ginger is a common ginger plant in China, Japan, Korea, and elsewhere. Its origins can be traced back to more than 5,000years ago. It is believed it originated in Southeast Asia. There, it was used for medicinal purposes.

Ginger has been shown to reduce nausea and stimulate digestion. It may even help prevent migraines. Ginger aids in relieving muscle spasms and joint pains. It can also treat arthritis.

Ginger is often fresh in Thailand. It is sliced into thin strips and then dried before being stored for later use. In Asian markets, you can purchase ginger root in cans or in jars.

What are the spices, condiments and seasonings Thailand uses in its dishes?

Thai cuisine is a mixture of Asian influences. Its roots are found in India and China, as well as Southeast Asia.

Freshness is the key ingredient in Thai cuisine. Ingredients that are quickly cooked and picked at the right time will have more flavour. This is why meat, fish, vegetables, fruits, herbs, nuts, seeds, and grains are often eaten raw and served hot.

Sauces and spices add depth and flavor to dishes. 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. They are frequently used.

What purpose is Thai spice used?

It's a term we all have heard, even though we don't know what it actually means. We are left wondering why we don't eat more Thai spice when our mouths water.

But it isn't just any old spice. It is an important ingredient that gives flavor and depth to bland dishes.

Although there are many recipes that call for Thai spices in large numbers, very few recipes actually use the true thing. Let's find out how to add these wonderful flavors to your dishes.

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.

Today, Thais still love spicy food. This preference can often be attributed to Thailand's hot weather, which makes it hard to stay warm without hot beverages. Thais also consume more chili peppers per capita than Americans and Europeans.

You can learn the most about Thai spices by visiting a local Asian grocery. You'll find many ingredients there, including fresh basil leaves, dried chilies and curry paste.

Also, you may find whole peppercorns.

Thai cuisine uses both dry and wet spices. Dry spices are generally ground, while wet spices can be crushed or pounded finely.

Dry spices are often added to a dish directly. For example, ground red pepper is sprinkled onto chicken soup. In order to make a paste out of wet spices, oil or butter is often used.

Wet spices are commonly used in marinades and sauces. Wet spices are used in many dishes, including fish sauce, oyster, sesame, sesame, sesame oil and curry paste.

If you want to try making Thai dishes at home, you need to know which spices go well with certain ingredients.

For example, red pepper flakes is recommended for beef. Use white pepper instead if you have seafood such as shrimp.

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

What are the 11 Indian spices?

Coriander seeds and cumin seeds are the eleven main spices in Indian cuisine.

These ingredients can be found in almost all dishes. These spices add a unique flavor to dishes like curries, chutneys and pickles, rice, bread, and desserts.

Health benefits can also be attained from spices. For example, turmeric helps fight cancer cells. Cloves help protect against bad breath. Black pepper helps lower cholesterol levels. Cinnamon lowers blood pressure. And ginger aids digestion.

A spice rack is a great kitchen tool because it allows you to experiment with different combinations of flavors. You can make your spice mix or buy ready-made blends that contain many of the essential spices.

Some people are against adding spices to their food. They believe spices only mask natural flavor and do little to enhance them. A pinch of salt or pepper will not harm your dishes.

Most chefs agree that spices are an essential part of cooking art. Many dishes would lack flavor and be boring without them. Next time you feel inspired, try a new recipe.

How To

How to Make a Garlic Press

A garlic press can be one of the most important tools in a home cook's toolbox. This allows you to quickly mince garlic and make smooth sauces, soups, and salad dressings. It's also great for crushing whole garlic cloves into a buttery spread or garlic salt.

You might be wondering where to begin if you don’t have a garlic press. Here are some tips to get you started.

First, you will need a large bowl. Place the bowl beneath the press, and then pour the crushed garlic in it. Set the pressure regulator valve at the maximum setting.

Next, turn the handle counterclockwise until 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 the pressed garlic out and enjoy!

Here are some more ways to use this versatile instrument:

• You can add minced garlic to soups and sauces, salads, dips, or as a seasoning.
• Use the press for whole garlic cloves to make a buttery spread
• Crush whole cloves of garlic onto pizza dough before baking
• Blend roasted garlic into mashed potatoes or creamy polenta
• Make pesto with garlic mashed in the press
• Puree garlic into a smooth vinaigrette
