I’ve just begun an experiment where I will explore Asia through food… Telling stories about food and cooking is important. I will document most I consume and will try to describe the tastes through my taste buds . . . As Thailand is my residing country, I will explore as many Asian dishes as I can here, and hopefully do some travel for the ones I can’t. I will also focus on the people behind it. Whether it is a farmer on a field, a street vendor or a chef creating a masterpiece…

Yellow curry paste (nam prik gaeng karee) is a mellow sweet-spicy paste blend based on turmeric and curry powder pounded together with coriander, cumin, lemongrass, galangal, shrimp paste, dried red chillies, sea salt, ginger, garlic and shallots.
