What does Thai spice serve?
It's a term we all have heard, even though we don't know what it actually means. But once we start to feel the heat in our mouths, we wonder why it hasn't been eaten more.
But it isn't just any old spice. It is an important ingredient that gives flavor and depth to bland dishes.
Thousands of recipes call for Thai spices, but few of them include the real deal. Let's discuss how to incorporate these tasty flavors into your meals.
Thais have used herbs and spices since ancient times to enhance food and drink. Thai, which means "to make", comes from the Sanskrit word.
Thais are still fond of spicy foods. This preference is often attributed to the hot weather in Thailand, which makes it difficult to keep warm without something hot to drink. Thais also consume more chili peppers that Americans or Europeans.
You can learn the most about Thai spices by visiting a local Asian grocery. There you will find a variety of ingredients such as dried chilies fresh basil leaves curry paste and ground black pepper.
You may also find whole peppercorns.
Thai cuisine uses both dry and wet spices. Wet spices are ground finely, while dry spices are typically ground.
Dry spices are typically added directly to a dish. 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 commonly used in marinades and sauces. Common wet spices include oyster sauce, fish sauce and sesame oils, curry paste, hoisin sauce, and sesame seed oil.
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. White pepper is better for seafood such as shrimp.
You can also order online if your Asian market is not available. This market has everything you need, including dried chilies as well as exotic herbs and spices.
This Thai recipe will give you a kick next time your stomach gets rumbling.
Is garlic used in Thai cooking?
Thai cuisine often uses garlic. Garlic is often added to dishes such as salads, soups, stir-fries, curries, sauces, and rice.
In Thailand, garlic is chopped and fried with shallots, ginger, and spices. In addition, it is commonly eaten with sticky rice.
Garlic is best chopped finely and mixed with oil, chilli paste, fish sauce, lime juice and oil. This is known as "Nam Phrik", or namphrik. Nam phrik is often accompanied by grilled chicken or beef.

How To
How can I store my cooking spices?
I will tell you how to store cooking spices for optimal performance. First, let's understand how foods are stored.
Because light can diminish the flavour of spices, they should be kept in sealed containers. This is due to oxygen combining with organic compounds, such as spices.
To avoid oxidation, spices must be kept in dark cupboards. Spice tends to lose its flavour quickly if these conditions aren't met.
Keep spices fresh by storing them in airtight jars out of direct sunlight.
To make flavoured drinks, you can add herbs or spices to water. Mix two teaspoons of ground cinnamon and 1/2 cup warm water. Stir well. Add a squeeze of lemon juice and serve immediately.
Add dried herbs and spices to soups. Spread the spice mixture evenly onto the dish. Allow it to sit for between 5-10 minutes before serving.
Remaining cooked vegetables, fruit and meats can be used in your favorite recipes to make snacks.
For the best flavor of fresh herbs, you can chop them up or tear them apart and then add them to your favorite foods. It is also possible to freeze herbs and spices in muffin cups or ice cube trays. Once frozen, transfer to freezer bags or zip-top plastic bags.
