Thai cooking is all about balancing flavors within each dish. When I recently took a thai cooking class, I was surprised that each dish was required to include the five senses or flavors – sweet, salty, sour, hot (spicy) and bitter. One wouldn’t typically think of combining all of those flavors together, but for those of us who just love Thai food, we know that something magical happens when those five senses come together. Here are just a few pictures from my Thai cooking class. I hope I’m not being too cruel by only including pictures, and not recipes. I promise I will post those recipes later. Summer is approaching and a plate of green papaya salad would be perfect for one of those outdoor summer parties. Yum!
