Each Thai cooking class begins with an introduction to the ingredients used in the recipe. Find out how to balance the five flavors that define Thai cuisine and get suggestions for Thai food substitutes for ingredients that may be hard to find outside of Thailand.
Every disc also includes a scenic and fascinating 35 minute tour of places where Thai food ingredients originate. To make this Thai cooking video series truly unique in its educational value and fun to watch, SITCA traveled to provinces on the mainland and around Koh Samui to visit herb farms, fish sauce and shrimp paste makers, noodle factories, fruit orchards and more.
