Here’s a wonderful article about the Thai Cuisine Culture. This is something I didn’t know is that Thai chefs often cater dishes to customers taste. This however will often make French chefs scream. They will go screaming into the night.
Don’t get me wrong. I have the up most respect for these chefs. It takes years of work to be a great chef. A great deal of discipline as well. I would prefer Thai chefs over French chefs. Thai chefs are little more relaxed and more accommodating to customers.
The article is about the common condiments on the Thai table: sugar, chili pepers dried or in oil, fish sauce, chili vinegar, sweet chili sauce. Thai folks use these like Americans use mayo, ketchup, mustard or barbecue sauce.
These sauces are used to dip and season foods with.
