Frequently Asked Questions
Can you add spice to a beverage?
I love spices adding flavour to food. How can you make spices come to life when they are used in drinks?
Spices add a wonderful depth to any beverage. You can add a little cinnamon or nutmeg to any glass of wine, beer or coffee.
Most recipes call for ground spices. This means that you'll need fresh whole spice. Although this is logical, it can be costly, time-consuming, and takes up storage space.
That's where the magic happens. With your creativity, you can turn your favorite spices into easy-to-use powdered products. These spices can be mixed into favorite beverages to create tasty spiced drinks.
There are two possible ways to create these powders. The first involves the grinding of whole spices to make fine powder. Another method is to use a mortar & pestle to grind the spices until they are finely ground.
You'll find it easier to make powder than whole spices, regardless of the method. Plus, the powder keeps well so that you won't run out of stock.
You can also experiment with different spices to create new flavor combinations. To make minty water, you can combine spearmint and peppermint leaves. You can also make spicy ginger-ginger tea by combining ginger and cardamom seeds.
Once you have mastered the art of making powdered spices you can use that same technique for herbs. Basil, rosemary, thyme and sage are some of the most popular herbs.
The possibilities are limitless. Powdered spices can enhance the flavor and texture of beverages, such as soups or salads, as well as the taste of pasta.
Which Spices and Herbs are Best Served with Potatoes?
A potato can be a side dish for any type of meat. You may have noticed that potatoes can be served in many different ways than mashed.
These versatile vegetables are delicious additions to any meal, from salads to casseroles to soups to pasta dishes. You may not know, but many spices and herbs can go well with potatoes.
These recipes will help you spice up your next potato dish.
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 a distinct flavour profile.
Thai food can be described as sweet, salty or sour.
Thais love sweetness because it makes their dishes more delicious. Sweet ingredients such as palm sugar (gula melaka) and coconut milk play a significant role in Thai cuisine.
Thailand's most popular food is sourness. Hot dishes can often be paired with sour foods. This combination balances out the heat.
Thai food is not complete without spicy food. Spices such as chilli pepper, galangal, ginger root, and garlic are used extensively in Thai recipes.
What's the difference of curry and curried
There is no difference in spelling. Both words refer the same thing: Indian food that uses meats and vegetables along with different seasonings.
Curry derives its name from the Hindi word kari which means "to rub." The spice mixture is then applied to the food. Curry foods are usually cooked until golden brown.
While curried dishes were once reserved only for special occasions they are now enjoyed regularly throughout India. They can be made with chicken, beef or lamb and include vegetables as well.
Curried dishes are typically served alongside plain white rice. You can also add raita (a yogurt sauce), or chutney (a sweet relish).
Does Thai use ginger?
The answer is yes. Ginger is used extensively in traditional Thai cooking. It is commonly added to stir-fries or soups. Ginger is also used in desserts such as lassis.
Ginger is native to China, Japan, and Korea, and its origins date back more than 5,000 years. It is believed it originated in Southeast Asia. There, it was used for medicinal purposes.
Ginger is known for stimulating digestion and relieving nausea. It may even help prevent migraines. Ginger also helps to relieve muscle spasms, reduce joint pain, and treat arthritis.
Ginger is often eaten fresh in Thailand. Ginger root is first cut into thin strips before drying and stored. In Asian markets, you can purchase ginger root in cans or in jars.

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. It allows you to efficiently mince garlic into a paste or puree it into a smooth sauce, soup, or salad dressing. It's also great for crushing whole garlic cloves into a buttery spread or garlic salt.
However, if you don’t already have a garlic pressing machine, you might wonder how to get one. Here are some tips that will help you get started.
First things first: you'll need a large bowl. Place the bowl under the pressure regulator and pour the crushed garlic inside. Set the pressure regulator valve at the maximum setting.
Next, rotate the handle clockwise until it clicks. You will be able to slide the blade over the bowl by lifting the top part of your press. Continue to turn the handle counterclockwise, until the blades are closed.
Finally, take out the pressed ginger and enjoy!
These are just a few of the many ways you can use this versatile tool.
- 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
- Place whole garlic cloves in a pizza dough and crush them before baking
- Roasted garlic can be incorporated into creamy polenta or mashed potatoes.
- The press can be used to make pesto from garlic
- Puree garlic into a smooth vinaigrette
