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. |
