For an authentic flavor, it is worth spending
some time making up these stocks called for in Thai and other Oriental dishes.
Thai soups, which are an important feature of Thailand cooking, are incomparable
when the proper stock is used. To save time, make up more stock than you need
and freeze the leftovers.
When in Bangkok, eating like a local is
simple. Great Thai fare is available almost everywhere in the city, so
here is a lesson or two in what to look for. Crispy noodles garnished
with several types of vegetables are a street standard. The variations
on som tam, or spicy papaya salad, are endless.
"Khai mot daeng", or red-tree ant
eggs, are essential for a local salad. Ubon Ratchathani is famous for
its "laap pet khao", a white duck salad. "Gai Yaeng", the
tastiest grilled chicken on earth. No matter where your tastes lie,
Northeast Thailand's distinct menus will leave you yearning for one more
couse.
