Frequently Asked Questions
What does Thai spice serve?
We've all heard the term "Thai spice" thrown around without knowing exactly what it means. When we taste it, our mouths water and we wonder why we aren't eating more.
It's more than just a spice. It is an essential ingredient that brings flavor and depth into dishes that might otherwise be boring.
There are thousands of Thai recipes, but very few include the authentic flavor. Let's discuss how to incorporate these tasty flavors into your meals.
Thais have been using spices and herbs to flavor food and drinks since ancient times. 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 are also more likely to consume chili peppers as compared to Americans or Europeans.
You can learn the most about Thai spices by visiting a local Asian grocery. There, you'll find a wide variety of ingredients, including dried chilies, fresh basil leaves, curry paste, and even ground black pepper.
You may also find whole peppercorns.
There are two types of spices in Thai cuisine: dry and wet. Dry spices are generally ground, while wet spices can be crushed or pounded finely.
Dry spices are usually added to a dish. A good example is chicken soup with ground red pepper. Wet spices are commonly mixed with oil or butter to form a paste.
Wet spices are usually used in marinades, sauces, and dressings. Some common wet spices include fish sauce, oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, curry paste, and hoisin sauce.
To make Thai food at your home, it is important to understand which spices are best with particular ingredients.
Red pepper flakes should be used if you're using 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. This market has everything you need, including dried chilies as well as exotic herbs and spices.
So next time you get hungry, think about putting on a little extra heat by whipping up one of these tasty Thai recipes!
Is it possible to add spice to a drink?
I love spices adding flavour to food. How can you make spices come to life when they are used in drinks?
Spices can bring out the best of any beverage. From coffee to tea, hot chocolate to cocktails, there's nothing more satisfying than adding a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg to a glass of wine or beer.
Most recipes call for ground spices. This means that you'll need fresh whole spice. This is sensible, but it can be expensive, time-consuming, and requires storage space.
That's where the magic happens. With some creativity, your favourite spices can be made into powdered forms that are easy to use. Mix them with your favorite drinks to make delicious spiced beverages.
Two ways can you make powders. One way is to grind whole spices into fine powder. Another method is to use a mortar & pestle to grind the spices until they are finely ground.
It doesn't matter what method you choose, the result is easier to measure out than whole spices and easier to store. Powder keeps well, so you will never run out.
Mixing spices can be fun to create new flavors. To make minty water, you can combine spearmint and peppermint leaves. For spicy ginger tea, use ginger and cardamom capsules.
Once you are skilled in the production of powdered spices, it is possible to apply that technique to herbs. Basil, rosemary, thyme and sage are some of the most popular herbs.
There are many options. Use powdered spices to give your beverages extra flavour or to enhance the taste of dishes such as soups, salads, and pasta.
Is garlic used in Thai cooking?
Garlic is an ingredient used in Thai cuisine. Garlic is used in Thai cuisine as an ingredient in salads, soups and stir-fries.
Thai garlic is chopped and fried together with ginger, shallots and other spices. It is also often eaten with sticky rice.
Garlic can be eaten in a variety of ways. This mixture is known as Nam Phrik (namphrik). Nam phrik is often served with grilled chicken or beef.
What kind of mint are used in Thai cuisine?
The most common type of mint used in Thai cuisine is lime-leaf mint (Mentha Cervina).
Its mild, lemony taste adds freshness and zest to dishes. Thai dishes are enhanced with other spices, such as galangal and coriander.
Mint can be used in sweet or savoury dishes. You can create authentic Thai flavours by choosing the right herbs, spices, and aromatics.
Make a Thai dish next time and add some lime-leaf mint to give it extra flavor.
Enjoy your cooking!
What are the spices, condiments and seasonings Thailand uses in its dishes?
Thai cuisine is an amalgamation of influences from across Asia. Its roots are in India and China as well as Southeast Asia.
Freshness is the main ingredient in Thai cuisine. It is easier to get the best flavour from ingredients if they are picked earlier and cooked quickly. This is why meats, fish, vegetables and fruits are often eaten raw and 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. are commonly used.
What Thai spice is needed to make Thai food at my home?
To make authentic Thai food at home, you'll need to master five essential spices: black pepper, cayenne, coriander seeds, turmeric, and cinnamon. Each ingredient has a unique flavor profile and plays an essential role in creating delicious dishes.
Cinnamon provides sweetness while black pepper enhances the flavours. Coriander seeds add a spicy kick, while turmeric gives curry powder its signature yellow colour. Cayenne peppers bring the heat while cilantro adds freshness. The final touch is cinnamon which gives depth and complexity to any dish.
Each of these spices can be found at your local grocery, but you may prefer to buy them online.

How To
How do you store your cooking spices?
Here's how to store your cooking spices for maximum performance. First of all, we need to establish an understanding of the science behind the storage of foodstuffs.
Because spice's flavour is diminished by light exposure, it should be stored in airtight 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 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon with 1/2 cup of warm liquid and stir. Serve immediately with a squeeze of lemon.
Dried herbs can be added to soups stews, casseroles pasta dishes rice dishes salads and desserts. Simply sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the dish and sit for 5-10 minutes before serving.
As snacks, leftover cooked vegetables and fruits can be added into your favourite recipes.
To get the best flavours from fresh herbs and spices, cut them or tear them and add them to hot foods. You can also freeze herbs and spices by placing them in ice cube trays or muffin cups and freezing them. Once frozen, place them in freezer bags or zip-top bags.
