Description of  A Treasure of Thai Curry Cooking: When Food Comes Alive with Flavors

Curry, one of the primary ingredients in Thai cooking, has become popular around the world. It wasnt always so. Curry, which originated in Southern Asia, was so precious and expensive, only the rich could afford it. That, thankfully, has changed.

If unsure, begin with less than the recommended amount and add more as you see fit. Read more
