SPECIAL INGREDIENTS
Lemongrass
An aromatic fresh herb that is used in curry
pastes, stir fries and soups. Trim the base,
remove the tough, outer layers and finely
slice, chop or pound the white interior. Whole
stems can be added to soups or curries. Dried
lemon grass needs to be soaked in water, but
the flavour of fresh is superior.
Lychees
Delicious fruit with a light texture and
flavour, peel away the rough skin, remove the
seed and use. They are also available in cans.
Rice noodles
These are fresh white noodles, they do not
require a lot of cooking.
Rice wine vinegar
Milder than most western vinegars, it
usually has an acidity of less than 4%. It has
a mild, sweet, delicate flavour and is made
from rice.
Sambal oelek
This is a paste made from ground chillies
and salt. This can also be used as an
ingredient or an accompaniment.
Tamarind
Tamarind has a fruit, tart flavour and is a
large, brown bean like pod. It is available as
a dried shelled fruit, a block of compressed
pulp or as a puree or concentrate.
Tofu
Tofu, or bean curd, is a high protein, low fat
food made from soya beans. It is available
in very firm or soft blocks and is either fresh
or vacuum-packed. It takes on the flavour of
the spices and sauces it is cooked with.
Turmeric
This is best known in its powdered form and
is often used to colour food. It has a bitter
flavour and it is also available fresh as a root,
rather like ginger, which is peeled and then
grated and finely chopped.

Supermarkets and have a slight aniseed
taste.
