The
traditional ingredients of Thai food have changed little up
to present day, consisting largely of seafood, and locally
grown vegetables and fruits, a diet common to most of the
country.
What
gives the distinctive Thai flavour, and the differing taste
from region to region, are the carefully blended sauces and
chillies. These go into dishes ranging from salty and bland
soups to the spiciest salads and sweetest desserts, often
all present within a single meal. |
