Thai Cookery Books

Thai Cooking?

I would like to buy a gift for someone who is really into Thai Cooking. Can you lot recommend anything? If you are recommending a cookery book, please could you let me know which one.

The most essential thing is the spices. They are used kind of differently in Thai cooking to sort of everyone else! And they are also absolutely excellent!!

They are not used so much to ‘flavour’ the dish, more to set off little culinary ‘fireworks’ during its enjoyment.

And without all those little barks and grasses etc. well, it’s just not Thai.

So try to find the spices. I wish I could tell you where. I’ve long since given up! But a trip to London and the markets where the restauranteurs go would succeed. (I believe they get flown in, every day.)

You would need to ask them where, though.

A friend of mine brought me some back from Tokyo a few years ago and they did very well indeed for about a couple of weeks – then they were all gone. Fabulous!

What a wonderful gift indeed. I have never forgotten them.
