Frequently Asked Questions

What purpose is Thai spice used?

The term Thai spice is a common phrase that we've heard a lot, but don't really know what it means. We are left wondering why we don't eat more Thai spice when our mouths water.

It's not just any spice. It is an essential ingredient that brings flavor and depth into dishes that might otherwise be boring.

Although there are many recipes that call for Thai spices in large numbers, very few recipes actually use the true thing. Let's discuss how to incorporate these tasty flavors into your meals.

Thais have been cooking with herbs, spices and other flavors since ancient times. Thai is the Sanskrit word that means "to cook".

Thais are still fond of spicy foods. This preference can often be attributed to Thailand's hot weather, which makes it hard to stay warm without hot beverages. Thais consume more chili peppers than Americans and Europeans.

Visit a local Asian grocery shop to find out more about Thai spices. There will be a large selection of ingredients available including dried chilies (fresh basil leaves), curry paste, ground black pepper, 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 offers two types of spices: dry and moist. Dry spices are usually ground, while wet ones are crushed or pounded finely.

Dry spices are often added to a dish directly. For example, ground red pepper is sprinkled onto chicken soup. Wet spices are commonly mixed with oil or butter to form a paste.

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

You need to be able to match certain spices with Thai ingredients if you wish to make Thai food at home.

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

If you don't live near an Asian market, you can order online. You will find everything from dried chilies to exotic herbs and spices here.

Can you add spice to a beverage?

I love how spices bring flavour to food. But how can you make them live when they're used in drinks.

Spices are great because they bring out the best in any beverage. You can add a little cinnamon or nutmeg to any glass of wine, beer or coffee.

But most recipes call for ground spices, meaning you'll need fresh whole spices. It makes sense but is time-consuming and expensive.

This is where the magic happens. It's possible to transform your favorite spices into a powdered form that is easy to use with a bit of creativity. To make tasty spiced drinks, you can combine them with your favourite beverages.

These powders can be made in two ways. A second method is to grind whole spices into fine powder. One method involves using a mortar-and-pestle to grind spices into 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 also keeps well so you won't run dry.

You can also experiment with different spices to create new flavor combinations. To make minty water, you can combine spearmint and peppermint leaves. To make spicy ginger tea, you can also combine ginger and cardamom pods.

Once you've mastered making powdered spices, you can apply the same technique to herbs. Some popular herbs include basil, oregano, rosemary, thyme, and sage.

The possibilities are endless. Powdered spices are a great way to make your drinks more flavorful or to enhance dishes like soups and salads.

Does Thai use ginger?

The answer is yes. Traditional Thai cooking makes extensive use of ginger. Ginger is often used to make stir-fries and soups. It is also used in desserts, drinks, such a lassis.

Ginger is native to China, Japan, and Korea, and its origins date back more than 5,000 years. It is believed that ginger originated in Southeast Asia where it was grown for medicinal purposes.

Ginger has been shown to reduce nausea and stimulate digestion. It may even help prevent migraines. Ginger can also be used to treat arthritis, muscle spasms, joint pains, or relieve them.

Ginger is often fresh in Thailand. Ginger root is first cut into thin strips before drying and stored. You can buy ginger root in jars or cans from Asian markets.

What is the difference in curry and curried?

It doesn't matter how the spelling is written. Both terms refer to the exact same thing: An Indian dish that combines meat and vegetables with different seasonings.

Curry comes from the Hindi word kari meaning "to rub." This term refers to how the spice mixture is rubbed onto the food. Curried foods should be cooked until they are golden brown.

Curried dishes are no longer reserved for special occasions. They're now commonplace in India. These dishes can be chicken, beef (lamb), fish, or vegetables.

Plain white rice is often served with curried dishes. You can also add raita (a yogurt sauce), or chutney (a sweet relish).

Almond Flour vs. Almond Meal. What's The Difference?

As an almond flour alternative, an almond meal is more versatile because it can be used for baking, cooking, and even making nut-free dishes.

Almond flour could also contain gluten making it difficult for some people 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.

Because it's made from almonds, almond flour contains monounsaturated fatty acids, while almond oil contains polyunsaturated fatty acids. Both can lower LDL cholesterol and increase HDL cholesterol.

Almond flour is high in antioxidants including phenolics, flavonoids, and proanthocyanidins. These compounds prevent free radical-induced oxidative stress.

An experiment published in the Journal of Agricultural Food Chemistry showed that almond flour has an equivalent antioxidant activity to that of blueberries.

Almond milk is often sold with almond flour, which has been fortified with additional nutrients.

How To

How do I decide which spices I want to buy?

It is important to know how you can choose the right spices and herbs to cook. There are hundreds of choices, so where can you start when choosing which spices to add to your kitchen?

When choosing spices, there are three things you should consider: the flavour profile, shelf-life, and cost. There are many flavour profiles that can be used depending on how you cook meat, poultry, fish and vegetables as well as beans, grains, pastas, eggs, bread, cakes, and other foods. Once you have decided on a category you will need to narrow your options based on the differences.

There are many factors that affect shelf life. Some spices are good for a lifetime, while others can be lost quickly. For example, cayenne pepper is good for years and oregano lasts only two months. There's also the cost. Spices are available in a range of prices, from $1 per tablespoon to more expensive than $100 per an ounce. This means that you will need to strike a balance between quality and value.

It's also important to determine if organic or nonorganic ingredients you prefer. Organic products have fewer pesticides and chemicals that conventional products, which is better for your health as well as the environment. But they can often be more expensive so make sure you weigh the benefits against their costs.

Online shopping is the best way for you to make sure that you have the right spices in your kitchen. Online retailers provide comprehensive information on every product, including pricing, reviews and ratings.

Once you have narrowed down your choices, you can place an online order with the retailer. Once you receive your items, store them safely in airtight containers away from heat and light.
