Modern day Thai cuisine has an ancient history. As early as the thirteenth-century, the Thai people had established what might be considered the heart of Siamese cuisine as we know it today.
Even today, Thailand is a nation obsessed with food. When Thais meet, it is common to greet each other with the question "Where are you going?" quickly followed by "Have you eaten?" This passion for food and a willingness to experiment are the key reasons that Thai cuisine is widely regarded as the finest in the world.
What gives Thai food its distinctive character is a harmony or flavours, a taste combination that is a mix of sour, salty, hot and aromatic.
The use of peanuts and coconut in the curries is characteristically Thai, as is the use of distinct ingredients such as lemongrass, kaffir lime, galangal, ginger, fresh lime and palm sugar.
The herbs and fresh ingredients yield different aromas and flavors in each Thai dish.
