Frequently Asked Questions
What purpose is Thai spice used?
Everyone has heard the term Thai spice, but not all know what it is. 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 important ingredient that gives flavor and depth to bland dishes.
There are thousands of Thai recipes, but very few include the authentic flavor. Let's talk about how to make sure you add these amazing flavors to your meals.
Thais have been using spices and herbs to flavor food and drinks since ancient times. Thai is the Sanskrit word that means "to cook".
Thais are still fond of spicy foods. This preference is often due to the heat in Thailand which makes it difficult for people to stay warm without hot drinks. Thais consume more chili peppers than Americans and Europeans.
The best way to learn about Thai spices is to visit a local Asian grocery store. There you will find a variety of ingredients such as dried chilies fresh basil leaves curry paste and ground black pepper.
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. Most Thai cuisine uses dry spices, which are ground and pulverized finely.
Dry spices can be added to any dish. A good example is chicken soup with ground red pepper. Mixing wet spices with oil or butter can create a paste.
Wet spices are often used in sauces, marinades, and dressings. Common wet spices include oyster sauce, fish sauce and sesame oils, curry paste, hoisin sauce, and sesame seed oil.
If you want to try making Thai dishes at home, you need to know which spices go well with certain ingredients.
For example, if you are using beef, you should use red pepper flakes. Use white pepper instead if you have seafood such as shrimp.
If you don't live near an Asian market, you can order online. Here you will find everything, from dried chilies and exotic herbs to spices.
So next time you get hungry, think about putting on a little extra heat by whipping up one of these tasty Thai recipes!

How To
How can I store my cooking spices?
I will tell you how to store cooking spices for optimal performance. We must first understand the science behind food storage.
Because light can diminish the flavour of spices, they should be kept in sealed containers. This is due to oxidation which occurs when oxygen combines with organic compounds such as those found in spices.
To avoid oxidation, spice should be kept in dark cupboards. Spices lose their flavor quickly if these conditions don't exist.
Keep spices fresh by storing them in airtight jars out of direct sunlight.
You can flavor water by adding herbs and spices. To make a cinnamon-flavored drink, combine two teaspoons of ground ginger with half a cup of warm water. Stir and mix well. Serve immediately with a squeeze of lemon.
You can add dried herbs and spices to soups, stews, casseroles, pasta, rice dishes, salads, and desserts. Simply sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the dish and sit for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Leftover cooked vegetables, fruits and meats, as well as leftover cheese, breads, crackers, cookies or cakes can be added to favorite recipes for snacks.
Fresh herbs and spices can be enjoyed by being chopped or broken up. You can also freeze herbs and spices by placing them in ice cube trays or muffin cups and freezing them. Once frozen transfer to zip-top plastic bags or freezer bags.
