There are a lot of reasons to love Thai food from the unique flavors to the fact that most dishes can be made very healthy while still tasting good. The trick is to take your time getting to know what Thai dishes is all about before you go mixing up your own dishes.

The Taste Test

You can't cook your own Thai until you have tasted it how it is supposed to be tasted. If you have never experienced authentic Thai food from a high quality restaurant or delivery service, do this before you even start making recipes at home. The way these dishes are put together and the flavors they are infused with is different from any other cuisine you have ever tried. You have to know what it should taste like before you start cooking it yourself.

Invite some friends over and order a variety of meals, appetizers and desserts from the menu of a good authentic Thai deliver service in your area. You can do a fun taste test and get to know the different types of dishes presented in this cuisine field. You will then have a much better understanding of what Thai food should taste like.

You should also continue to experiment with authentic Thai dishes by ordering out on a regular basis. The more dishes you try, the more you will be able to recreate the authentic Thai taste in your own kitchen.

Finding Recipes

You have to find Thai recipes that are very true to the culture or you won't be making real Thai dishes. Study the menus for restaurants and delivery services then look up recipes for dishes presented there. Some recipes will be more authentic than others, which is where it helps to have tasted the real thing from a restaurant or delivery service prior to trying to make it yourself.

The more exposure you have had to eating Thai dishes, the better you will become at identifying recipes that are the most authentic and those that are knockoffs.

Don't be Afraid to Tweak

Most cooks will use a recipe as it is laid out the first time, but then they will make tweaks and changes every time they use it thereafter. This is because everyone has a different taste bud and likes different things. Don't feel you have to use every recipe exactly as it is seen on paper. Experiment with different ideas and you will find new recipes that you really love.

The more you taste authentic Thai food, the more you will be able to tweak recipes so they taste more authentic and more pleasing to your taste buds. The importance of eating lots of freshly prepared Thai foods while you learn to cook cannot be stressed enough. The more you taste the better your own Thai foods will taste, so eat up and enjoy!
