Frequently Asked Questions

Is Paprika used in Thai food?

Yes. Yes.

Thai, Mexican, Spanish, Indian and Chinese cuisines include paprika.

Paprika can also be traced back to Ancient Greece, more than 5,000 year ago. The Hungarian language, which means "pepper", is where the word "paprika" came from.

What is the Thai use for mint?

Thai cuisine's most used type is lime-leaf, or Mentha cervina.

It is mild and lemony in flavour, which adds freshness as well as zing to dishes. Thai dishes can also be enhanced by adding other spices such galangal or coriander to their flavour.

Mint can be used in sweet or savoury dishes. It is crucial to use authentic Thai flavors by using the right spices, herbs, aromatics.

next time you make a Thai dish, don't forget to include some lime-leaf mint for extra flavour!

Enjoy your cooking!

What is the most recognizable ingredient in Thai food?

Thailand's two main ingredients form the heart of all Thai dishes. They are rice and curry. These two elements combine to create a memorable flavor.

The combination is called "Khao Pad Krai" in Thailand. This means that when two simple foods are combined, they can become irresistible and delicious.

This is true for all aspects of life. If you combine hard work with perseverance, you can achieve great success.

The right ingredients can make you successful, like Khao Pad Krai: passion and purpose. When you combine these ingredients, you can create something remarkable.

Next time you feel like eating Thai food, remember that it takes more than just rice and curry to make a memorable meal. Try out other ingredients and have fun!

What's the difference in cooking with whole vs. ground spices? Ground Spices?

There isn't any difference between cooking with whole spices and ground spices. After harvesting, all spices are ground. It doesn't make a difference in terms of quality.

But the price gap is significant. Whole spices are more expensive because of the labor required to process them. But the flavour is well worth it.

Bulk purchases of whole spices can often get you additional discounts. You might get a discount if your entire bag is of cinnamon sticks.

The same applies to nutmeg and cloves, ginger or cardamom. This can help you save money on spices if you buy them in bulk.

Ground spices are also more durable than whole spices. Because ground spices lose potency quickly from oxidation, this is why whole spices last longer than ground spices.

The main reason we recommend whole spices over dried is that they can add lots of flavor to recipes.

A delicious curry can be made with whole turmeric as opposed to ground turmeric. For chicken dishes, whole coriander seeds can be ground to make a spice blend.

The process of grinding spices takes a lot of time. When you buy whole spices, it makes sense to buy a large quantity. That way, you won't run out of spices too fast.

What Thai spice should I use to cook Thai food in my own kitchen?

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 plays a crucial role in the creation delicious dishes.

Cinnamon brings out the sweetness of black pepper, while white pepper enhances the savoury flavours. Coriander seeds provide a spicy kick and turmeric gives curry powder the yellow color it is known for. Cayenne peppers bring the heat while cilantro adds freshness. The final touch is cinnamon which gives depth and complexity to any dish.

These spices are available at most grocery stores. However, if you prefer to order them online, we have recommendations.

Is it possible to add spice to a drink?

I love how spices add flavor to food. But how do you make them come alive when 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.

But, since most recipes call to ground spices, you'll need whole spices. Although this is logical, it can be costly, time-consuming, and takes up storage space.

Here's where the magic happens. With some creativity, your favourite spices can be made into powdered forms that are easy to use. Then you can mix them into your favourite beverages to create delicious spiced drinks.

There are two methods to make these powders. The first involves the grinding of whole spices to make fine powder. Another way is to grind the spices in a mortar and pestle.

No matter which method you use, the powder will be much easier to measure and store than whole spices. You won't run short of powder, and it keeps well.

You can even experiment with mixing different spices to create new flavours. You could make minty water by combining spearmint and peppermint. You can also make spicy ginger-ginger tea by combining ginger and cardamom seeds.

Once you've mastered making powdered spices, you can apply the same technique to herbs. Oregano and rosemary are all popular herbs.

The possibilities are limitless. Use powdered spices to give your beverages extra flavour or to enhance the taste of dishes such as soups, salads, and pasta.

How To

Do You Know How to Make Curry Paste?

Curry paste can be made with dried chillies. It is used extensively in Thai cuisine.

Curry paste is a very popular condiment in Southeast Asia. It gives many dishes a unique taste, including curries, soups stir-fries, stir-fries and salads.

It's very simple to make this at home. Just follow our step-by-step guide below:

Step1 - Prepare Ingredients

• Before starting the recipe, you will need to prepare all ingredients.
• Start by peeling and chopping shallots (about 2 cups). Next, chop galangal root into small pieces (3 inches in length) and place aside.
• Next, you will need to peel and slice the garlic cloves (about 4 cloves). The lemongrass stems should be roughly 1/2 inch thick.
• You can then crush the red chilli bell peppers into small pieces (about 4 tablespoons), and then you can remove the seeds (optional).
• Next, cut the kaffir-lime leaves into thin strips (5 inches). Remove the white part of the stem and set it aside.
• After draining the shrimp paste, wash it well and then coarsely smash it.
• Measure out the sugar and salt.

Step2 - Grind Ingredients

• Grind all ingredients together until smooth.
• The texture should look similar to peanut-butter.
• Note: if you want to reduce the amount of oil in the dish, you can substitute some water for some of the oil.

Step3 - Add Coconut Milk

• Add coconut milk to the mixture, and mix well.
• Slowly add coconut milk to ensure that the paste doesn't become too sticky.
• If you prefer less spice, add less chillies to the recipe and more galangalroot.
• You can make it more spicy by adding more chilies and less galangal root. The final result should taste good to you.

Step4 -- Serve

• Top it with your favorite foods.
• Enjoy!
