Basic Thai IngredientsBasic Thai ingredients are very similar to Malaysian and Indonesian ingredients minus the Thai fish sauce and Thai basil.
It is the way of preparation and the combination of these ingredients that set Thai food apart from the other foods in the region. Thailand is a big country, the kind of foods in each region varies greatly but the basic Thai ingredients are pretty similar everywhere. The southern part mostly uses a lot of seafood because The Gulf of Siam and South China Sea on the east side and the Andaman Sea on the west side of the country enable the people to harvest the fresh seafood. The northern part which borders with Myanmar and Laos hardly enjoy any seafood and the climate is also temperate. Therefore, we can expect different kind of ingredients used in the northern territory. Even then, basic Thai ingredients remain about the same.
Here is a good place for you to pick up more extensive Thai recipes, especially those that come from the Northern Region in Chiang Mai. They use mainly those basic Thai ingredients described above. If you like backpacking, here are some tips for traveling in Thailand for backpackers.
