You may feel like you are swimming upstream compared to magazines and the Jamie Oliver’s of the world, but after making your recipes, I would never go back to non or pseudo Thai recipes again. Hands down, your recipes are infinitely better. Keep doing a great job introducing great and authentic food. Cheers!!👏

      As a Southeast Asian myself whose country is actually pretty close to Thailand, and having had Thai food both in Thailand and in other Western countries eg Australia, I'd say that the Thai food overseas is almost always much sweeter than the real thing.. for some reason. Also in some cases they use coconut cream instead of coconut milk which makes the curries gloopier, and makes dishes fattier, heavier and more surfeiting.

    Two most important things I learned from this channel :
    1. Most Thai people don't make their own curry paste using a mortar and pestle! I now make really awesome curry because I buy a great quality product at the Asian market and the rest is pretty easy.
    2: I finally know how to properly treat rice noodles. I love them but have had terrible luck trying to cook them according to package directions or by winging it. Now my noodles are perfect, not a starchy mess.
    I haven't watched the video yet. Some frozen foreign dishes can be pretty good, like Indian, but I haven't had good luck with Thai. Noodles are never good in a frozen dinner but rice usually does OK.

    Loved this episode. "Cilantro - NO!" It's funny about how some of the brands added non-authentic ingredients. Reminds me of some episodes of America's Test Kitchen when they are preparing some foreign food, but they modify some of the key ingredients to make it very non-authentic. I'm fortunate to live in a city with several good Thai restaurants and a couple of decent Asian markets that sell authentic ingredients for Thai food.

    I really love this, and it's so true. You can buy/eat "thai" food in so many ways. You can find a recipe and follow every step, even buy it at a local "thai" restaurant. But it ends up almost every time in something that doesn't compare with how it actually tastes when you sit down to eat in Thailand.
    My favourite is Pad med mamuang, and now after some years watching your videos and get help from my thai friends, I've actually came close the real thing. :)

    Spot on review. There's a "pad thai-ish" version of Pad Thai in the midwest, and I feel like these products emulate that flavor. It's always too sweet and often lacking any umami from fish sauce and shrimp paste. I miss eating thai food back in Los Angeles. :(

    I agree with you re: the amount of sugar some manufacturers put in their prepared products. I once tried a Trader Joe's marinara pasta sauce that was so sweet that it tasted like a dessert it was so sweet. I threw it away. A little sugar, for recipe balance, can be a good thing. The sweet taste can be addicting and lead to serious sugar-eating problems. Thankfully we have your good taste and good cooking to follow. This was a fun video and thank you for 'going there' so that the rest of us don't have to!! haha!

  • @subductionzone
    @subductionzone Год назад

    I have been having an urge for pad Thai recently and I wanted to make my own. I found your recipe on the internet and made that. For a first timer it turned out pretty good. I found most of the ingredients at a local Asian market. And followed the directions fairly closely. My one mistake was to think that the noodles were going to need some more water, which you said might happen. I added just a splash and realized that I should have just cooked my noodles for a little longer until they were dryer. The second time I did not add the extra water and was much closer to the desired product. I will be repeating it, hopefully with dried shrimp and pickled daikon.
    Than you so much.

    Great Video, Pai. I had wondered about these products so I REALLY appreciate when you do these types of presentations! I've never bought them and even just as "food" and not comparing them to real Pad Thai, it was disappointing! That item from Costco must be regional. I don't remember seeing it at my local Costco, but it could also be that I generally pass by fast foods in a box that claim to be an ethnic dish.
    One thing I would have also liked to have seen is the ingredient list on those items to see how many different chemicals they used (IF they did!). It's one of the reasons I buy as little processed, pre-prepared food as possible.

    The taste of Thai noodle cooking method really does working surprisingly well, and as you said can be made pretty decent with some additions.

You'll like it better." Every time, it was delicious. Now I sometimes don't even look at the menu, but just ask her to bring me something she'd recommend, and it's always incredible.

    In Germany we also have a brand with Thai food kits, in a supermarket I have never been to before I spotted a pad thai kit. I already had the green curry one and it was already pretty good, they really include the ingredients to make the green curry, not the paste. The pad thai one includes a package of rice noodles, pad thai sauce and chili, very similar to the last one Pailin cooked. Also with instructions on what you need to buy to make the dish complete (like prawns, mung bean sprouts etc.). Since I had pad thai every other day on my Thailand vacation, I wanted to try it. Of course it can not compete with the pad thai I had in this little shop next to Bangla Road, cooked by a nice older lady, all the other pad thais in Phuket that I had could also not compete with it. But I was surprised by the quality of the product, you can really taste the fish sauce, the noodles are also really nice. So I can only use my experience of the few pad thais I had in Thailand, cooking Chinese food (but also trying other authentic Asian dishes in between) for my Chinese fiance every day for over 10 years as well as rely on my picky "golden tongue", but I have to admit I liked the taste of it so much I bought it a couple of more times 😂 Because it's really great when you don't have much time but still want something nice.

    Living in Thailand, it amazes me how many different takes on Pad Thai there are here. I fell in love with Pad Thai as made in Thai restaurants in the US, which is almost impossible to find here. I like the flat noodles, which seems to be hit or miss here, with many using glass noodles or vermicelli. Also, the amount of tamarind in the sauces varies for almost every vendor, and I prefer the ones with lots of tamarind. I love your sense of humor though, and yeah, make your own. It isn't that hard and I would do it a lot more if I didn't just have to walk around the corner and have 4 vendors selling it within 50 yards. Even my Thai wife will just order it or walk up the street and get it instead of making it herself. 🙂

    I was watching this on my laptop with my iPad next to me. When you spoke to Siri to set a timer for a minute in making the 'Taste of Thai' brand, my iPad responded to your voice and set a timer for one minute. I had to laugh!!

    Nothing beats a Thai dish made by a person who knows how to cook. I've tried a lot of instant Asian dishes and most of the time I have to improvise them. 😁 Now, I always have a Thai peanut sauce on the fridge that can go with most of the meals we eat.

    *LOVE* this video because she shares her cultural reasons why some hit/miss. My favourite part is when she used chop sticks even though she said Thai people only use spoon & fork. 🤣

      Hi! It's a Korea King, but as far as we can tell it's not on Amazon and rather hard to find online. Best bet is probably culinary stores then? Cheers! Adam

    Weird thing is almost everywhere I go pad Thai is served with carrots and cabbage on the side. I’m Thai and never thought that was weird until I actually went to Thailand.

    Thanks for even baring your tonsils to these meals, so we don't have to. If I want to eat a decent Thai meal, I either have to go to a decent Thai restaurant or follow your excellent video recipes Pailin. Long term follower and Thai food maniac 😋 Love from North Wales, UK.

    Pai it worth watching for your facial impression. I am in the UK and have been to the USA a few times and found most of the food to sweet. I am lucky because there two Thai restaurants near where I live. Have been trying your recipes but have problems getting some things. Only one Asian food place as not in a big city.

    Dear Pai,
    I've just found your channel because I looked for an authentic pad thai recipe. I made pad thai yesterday for the second time, this time according to your recipe, sort of, because I didn't have all the ingredients.
    On these two occasions my pad thai was rather a bit on the sour side, and I suppose I also wouldn't like a sweet pad thai at all. I may tolerate if it's a little bit sweet, but that's all.
    And ah, the cilantro...one of the stereotypical "Asian" ingredients, just like soy sauce and ginger. I loved your reaction to it, and also learned something new. There's a cooking channel in my country, they shared a receipe on their site with the title "The real pad thai", and it contained ginger and cilantro. Now, I know those don't belong in an authentic one.
    However, I also usually avoid cilantro because it has a soapy taste for me.
