What's more maddening than tracking them down is using them fast enough to be economical and not be wasteful.



You can find a lot of these things at foreign markets and certainly on the internet. But opening the jar commits you almost exclusively to a culinary lifestyle for a month or two, or throwing out 90% of the jar.



MoF, I think I've complained about just this thing before.

But if you're interested start at your local farmer's market [if major metro such as KC or Soulard]. Ask the spice vendors about other markets they sell to nearby.

Pretty much all of this.

I don't see fish sauce mentioned, but depending on what paste you use you may need fish sauce. Personally I have started using oyster sauce, in place of fish.



Brand of paste makes a big difference. If you can't get your recipe how u like, switch to a different brand. Kang matsaman....or maybe aeng



Balance can be tricky. I see lime juice in that recipe, but didn't see what they use for sweet. Most pastes will need some sweet. With massaman I like honey, agave or brown sugar. I tend to find more sweet needed....than most recipes call for...



That's all I got for now, I usually keep massaman simple - onion, potato, chicken or beef plus the sauce



Hope it turns out the way you want!

Good stuff, thank you. I've got some palm sugar on hand, which I think would be authentic. And I like cashews over peanuts, too - that's how my local Thai place does it. They also said their "secret" is a little peanut butter in the sauce.

I can handle the chicken, onion, and potato just fine. That ****ing sauce is the bane of my existence right now, so I appreciate the feedback. Will rep you when I get to a real computer.

Try subbing oyster sauce for fish

Reserve some sauce using that recipe, then try adding some oyster, honey & brown sugar to balance and finish it off

When you find a brand of massaman you love better than others would love to hear which

I like the kang matsaman because its only like 1 cup, and it comes in 2 separate 1/2 cup pouches.... And each pouch is like perfect for a big pot full

Some of the other ones are 2x the amount and in one pouch
Cheers

Title Thai lady!

But seriously, peanut is a common flavor in Massaman curry, so it makes sense to me. And I've had PB in chili and didn't care for it much. Maybe there was just too much of it, but it was not a subtle flavor at all.

Right on that looks like something I will stock in my kitchen! Good tip

When I find a really good Asian dish, I just go to the restaurant. I've never come close to nailing one.

My current favorite is drunken noodle, spice level 5, at a Thai place close to campus. It starts out with a comforting warmth, but builds as I make my way through the dish. By the time I get to the end, I'm blowing my nose every three bites, and wiping my eyes continuously. By far the best place in town to get my hot fix.

Is creamysweethot a word?

Like crushed red, or like a dried Thai chile?

Speaking of crushed red pepper, I discovered Aleppo chile flakes a few months ago. I highly recommend them. They're a little sweeter with a hint of raisin. I've completely moved away from crushed red; the Aleppo is the way to go on pretty much everything I've tried.
