Thai Cooking
Location: Chiang Mai, Thailand
Local Time: Friday, Feb 24, 2006
I went cooking today. Thai food is very tasty, and not hard to prepare. Some of the dishes were cooked in as little as 10 minutes. However, the class was extemely well prepared and organized, so I think cooking and preparing everything myself would have actually taken longer.
I skipped breakfast, expecting to eat lots during the day. I was not wrong.
In the morning there was a trip to the marked to see the different kinds of fruits that are available, how to tell if they are fresh. A lecture on eggs, fiber content of pineapples and an introduction to dragon fruit and rose apples.
Next at the kitchen we cooked and ate tom yum, green curry, penang curry, phad thai. Then, stuffed to the top, we watched a demonstration on how to prepare sweet rice with mango and were presented with our complementary cook books before we were whisked back to our hotels.
