THAI SPICE BLEND FOR SEASONING AND COOKING

Thai Spice Blend for Seasoning and Cooking image

Thai spice blends often combine multiple exotic ingredients such as lemongrass, galangal, and kaffir lime leaves. We combined dried lemongrass (easy-to-find dried lemon peel works, too) with common spices such as ginger (a cousin of galangal) to achieve that distinct Thai flavor. Try adding it to a vegetable stir-fry and top with fresh cilantro; sprinkle it over a salad of chopped green papaya and bean sprouts; use it to season steamed vegetables and jasmine rice; or make a quick peanut sauce by mixing with peanut butter, tamari, vinegar, and water.

THAI SPICE MIX

Thai Spice Mix image

This I have not made, as I live in Thailand, this is probably the closest Americanized version of a 'Thai Spice Mix" with actual Thai seasonings used. Ground Lemongrass and Ground Kaffir Lime Leaves are real things. Every Thai dish is different with regards to the seasoning for them, so this should get you into the ball...
