Thai cuisine is characterized by fresh and flavorful ingredients, making it simply irresistible! Pad thai is one of the most recognizable dishes for good reason; after all, it contains all 5 flavors – sour, sweet, bitter, salty and umami. Our take on the popular plate boasts those complex tastes without complex instructions, so you’ll have restaurant-quality pad Thai in no time! Just top fluffy, aromatic grains with crisp vegetables and savory shrimp, and then let the sauce do the legwork.
But don’t stop there, there’s plenty more dishes to take on! Which tempting Thai sauce sounds too tasty to turn down?
Peanut Sauce: Another 10-minute option, our sweet and savory Thai Tofu and Rice Salad is a vegetarian dish that no one will be able to resist!
Red Curry: Warm up on a chilly day with a Creamy Thai Soup! From the bold red curry paste to the rich coconut milk, this tasty meal doesn’t hold back on that spicy kick you crave from Thai cuisine.
Green Curry: For a meal that is sure to please everyone around the table, you may want to take the spicy down a notch. A velvety Thai Chicken and Rice Soup not only contains mild green chilies but also citrus-flavored rice to neutralize the heat.
Yellow Curry: Thanks to the generous portion of turmeric amongst other earthy spices, this golden-colored curry is not just on the sweeter side, it is also one of the more mild options.
