Canadian Food
is often left unexplored because of how radical their combinations can be.
However, some of these whacky combinations make for some really great dishes.
To call Thai cuisine
exotic would be an understatement. Canadian Food
shows us that Thai people are among the braver ones out there, testing out
everything with nearly everything else. However, it’s the bold that end up with
the treasure and that’s exactly what’s happened here. Through their crazy
experimentation with their dishes, Thailand has produced some wonderful food
that you simply need to give a try:
1.
Guay Teow
(Noodle Soup)
This dish is not for
the vegetarians among us, it is a fantastic combination of meat, noodles, and a
broth. The meat is a choice between pork, chicken, and beef and you choose
whether you want egg or rice noodles. If you’re lucky, you might even get some
wontons or meatballs in the broth which adds tremendously to the taste.
2.
Tom Yum
Goong (Spicy Shrimp Soup)
I personally love a
good soup, it’s a big part of Thai food for me. I’m not alone in this either, a
lot of people who go out for Chinese or Canadian
Food will often start with a soup then order a main entrée. This soup
really packs a punch and does at all at the same time. This soup comes in two
variants the first being with coconut cream for if you want a creamy soup and
the second without. The soup keeps things properly Thai with the ingredients
being lemongrass, chilli, fish sauce, galangal, kaffier lime leaves, shallots, and
fresh lime juice. However, it should be noted that the spice here is high for
your average spice lover. The faint of heart in this regard should steer clear
of this one and go for something milder, like Tom Kha Gai.

Tom Kha
Gai (Chicken in Coconut Soup)
This is another
excellent Thai soup to tantalize your taste buds. This soup is an excellent
combination of sweet and savory with its coconut milk. It’s generally the
better choice with people who are not very fond of spicy dishes and want
something abit milder yet enjoyable.
4.
Pad Thai
(Thai Style Fried Noodles)
Fried noodles are
something you can trust to start your expedition into the world of any Asian
cuisine, simply because there is very little in the way of going wrong with
this rather simple dish and the taste of the culture can be brought in very
easily. In the Thai style of cooking it, the dish is served with either chicken
or shrimp but vegetarian options are available aswell.
5.
Khao Pad
(Fried Rice)
Not a fan of noodles?
That’s not an issue. Though this dish isn’t one you have alone, it’s more of a
side to main entrée, it still deserves a mention simply because of the how
wonderful it tastes and how well it goes with nearly everything. This dish is
extremely simple and comprises fried rice, onions, and some egg. Team this with
some saucy entrée and you’ve got yourself one amazing meal.
I could go on about
all the wonderful Canadian Food there is to
explore but the list is massive. Furthermore, the best research is conducted
with experimentation so you should go and try what the local Thai place has to
offer.
