Our Ingredients
Thai cuisine is renowned for its intricate flavors, achieved through a diverse array of ingredients. Essential elements include lemongrass, which adds a fresh, citrusy aroma, and galangal, known for its sharp, peppery flavor. Kaffir lime leaves infuse dishes with a fragrant zest, while fish sauce provides a salty, umami depth. Tamarind paste offers a tangy sweetness, complemented by the subtle anise-like notes of Thai basil. Coconut milk lends a rich, creamy texture to curries, and bird's eye chilies bring a fiery heat. Palm sugar, with its hint of caramel, balances the flavors, creating the vibrant and complex taste that defines Thai cuisine.
