Mmmm... Thai Food
Tonight I finally made use of the skills and experience I got from taking the Thai cooking class in Bangkok, and passed that along by way of running a mini cooking class for jontheprophet and . We only cooked three dishes, not all twelve from the class, but we did hit the big highlights: tom yum soup, pad thai, and penang curry (all vegetarian, of course). The tom yum and the penang came out a little spicy, as I wasn't familiar with how hot the local chili paste and red curry paste are, but overall the taste was great. I was particularly happy with the tom yum -- all the flavors of the lemon grass, galangal, kaffir lime leaf, and lime juice came through just right. More please!
