While I try not to keep a lot of processed foods in the house, when I do, I often turn to Thai Kitchen. Not only are their products clearly labeled, but they have a list of all of their allergens online. On nights that I do end up using something from a box, I try to add my own fresh vegetables and a salad to round out the meal. Salads & vegetables are easy to prepare. To simplify meal time even more, I have my veggies already cleaned & ready to go in the refrigerator.
More about Thai cooking:
Beyond the flavors and health benefits, Thai cuisine is made even more enticing by the elaborate art of food presentation known as Palace Cuisine. This ancient skill, still practiced today, is a beautiful demonstration of the convergence of Thai cuisine and culture. Intricate meals are garnished with flowers and masterfully carved fruits and vegetables to create edible works of art. It’s the seemingly natural complement to the artisan-like nuances of flavor, texture, and aroma. In light contrast to Palace Cuisine is traditional home cooking. This form of cooking is equally as flavorful and robust, but served without the grandeur of Palace Cuisine. Instead, it’s served in the traditional Thai style of sharing several dishes, or in the single-dish Western style.
Some of my favorite Thai Kitchen products are the Original Pad Thai Stir-Fry Rice Noodles & Sauce, Pad Thai Noodle Cart, Coconut Milk, Red Curry Paste, and many of the Jasmine Rice dishes. If you are looking to create dishes on your own, make sure to check out the gluten-free recipes section of the Thai Kitchen website.
Thai Kitchen products can be found in many locations across the US. They can also be purchased online here or here. If you have a favorite product, using the Amazon.com option would end up being the best deal in the long run.
Used in moderation, these products can be a lifesaver on busy weeknights. I love the variety that Thai Kitchen offers in addition to being able to find their products in most mainstream grocery stores. Have you tried any of the Thai Kitchen gluten-free products? If so, which ones are your favorites.
