Wife made sirloin kra pao with Thai hot basil (wife is Thai)
Don’t forget the clear soup
>>22277852Looks awesome, I tried a new Thai place yesterday (got the pad kee mao) and it was excellent. Only issue was I asked for 3 out of 5 spicy and it wasn’t spicy at all
>>22277859This one is nuclear level hot and I can handle Thai hot ++++
We also had sirloin too last night but my wife just cooked it in butter and such not Thai style.
>>22277863And here’s the famous southern Thai Islamic curry my wife makes. She’s from the north and doesn’t eat beef but still happily cooks beef for me. Bless her.
Is your wife pregnant yet, Thai-anon?
>>22277875No we did the IVF this year and first try was a miscarriage. Thanks for checking in though.
>>22277865>doesn’t eat beefIs that a northern Thailand thing?
>>22277877I might be in the same boat too. I have been busting in my wife for two years with no success.
>>22277879I’m not sure actually. I think she secretly worships a Thai god that prevents her from eating beef. She says beef smells and she raised cows so likes them. >>22277880Sorry to hear anon.
She just brought me desert lol
>>22277852I'm drukking a beer
>>22277889Enjoy your beer and happy Friday
>>22277859>I asked for 3 out of 5 spicy and it wasn’t spicy at allYou can't ask for 3 out of 5. They will sense your fear, and give you no spicy.You gotta ask for "Thai Spicy"There is only 0/5 and 5/5 and no in-between
>>22277897You are correct.
How's she doin'? She's Isanese, right? I wonder if she can understand the cooks from that Lobo commercial for laab nomtok mix. I can understand the customer and the announcer but what the cooks say might as well be some unknown dialect of Klingon. Lemme see if I can find the commercial.Not eating yet as we just got in but we're having leftovers. Meatloaf for me and kiddo, chicken "slippers" for my wife.
>>22277865I'm >>22277917My wife won't cook beef and I generally try to avoid having it because it bothers her but ground beef was too fucking cheap last week so tough titty. I still cooked her chicken chapli kebabs so we can all eat together.
>>22277923>>22277917https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qv75pz4p3nc
>>22277917She’s doing good. Turns 36 next year but still looks 20. She’s a vampire. And yeah she has a northern dialect. She has a really nice accent compared to other Thai. Her voice is nice! And yeah she has seen that commercial probably. >>22277923Yeah lol my wife has never eaten beef since I met her she despises it for some reason but will happily cook it for me.
>>22277879Nah. I had a Thai roommate from BKK and she didn't eat beef, either. It's a thing throughout the area, albeit a relatively uncommon one.
>>22277917>>22277934Also she's from Phitsanulok. Nakhon thai
I'm eating a sextette of Peppa Pig fromage frais, reduced to about twelve pence in Asda.
Made chicken cutlets with a bit of mushroom, cream, and white wine sauce. Im off work for the season, just sitting at home collecting bennies and hanging with my gf.
>>22277897it depends on what you get. a thai spicy curry or soup is going to destroy your asshole but a thai spicy pad thai is never going to register as spicy.
>>22277852Post pics of her weird thai nostrils
>>22278050she has a kinose.
>>22278045that looks good >>22278049spicy papaya salad is the nuke
I read an article by famous food writer Jeffrey Steingarten from the late 90s or early 2000s about eating his way through Thailand and he wrote about how being in Thailand made him disgusted with fat red faced ugly white tourists himself included and how he thought the Thai people were beautiful people of the perfect size and shape and took up exactly the right amount of space.
>>22278063>Thai people were beautiful people of the perfect size and shape and took up exactly the right amount of space.This perfectly describes my 5'3 120 pound wife sir.
>>22278065I can't find the article online. I'm going to look for my copy of Steingarten's book of essays the Thailand one is in to find the exact quote because it's been stuck in my head for over 20 years and it's funny.
>>22278076https://archive.vogue.com/article/1994/12/01/thailand-flingit's here but account walled or something.
>>22278063>steingartendiscarded
>>22278078Found my copy. The article is from April 2001. Here's the bit I was paraphrasing. "In a related development, I have also not been much in the mood for Western people. While in Thailand, I became powerfully aware of the contrast between predominantly compact and graceful Thai people, notably the young women, the most beautiful I have ever seen, and most Caucasian tourists, who increasingly struck me as large, pale, fleshy, sweating, clumsy, clueless, loud, bulging, ill-dressed, thick-boned, red-faced, lumbering, hirsute, and dull. I concluded that there is no reason for any human to take up more space than the average Thai or to be less delicate. I am contemplating a race-change operation, and will soon inquire whether out health plan at Vogue covers the cost"Steingarten is an excellent food writer who wrote for Vogue and I highly recommend the book length collections of Vogue articles. This Thailand one is from his second collection called "It Must've Been Something I Ate: The Return of the Man Who Ate Everything".
>>22278110kek. I've been to Thailand. There's a lot of pretty women there. But most don't look like my wife. So I consider my wife special.

>>22278114Do Thai people know western foodies hood their food in very high regard? How do they feel about that? Does your wife know?
>>22278163There's 200,000 thai restaurants in America. My wife and I go to them occasionally. We live in Cali rn so the best are in Thai Town LA. LA Is a dump it's the only reason why we go there lol. For her though, real Thai taste americans don't like. She likes "Laos" style Thai food.
>>22278167You didn't answer any of my questions. Western foodies have been glazing Thai cuisine for decades.
>>22278173I’ll be completely honest. She doesn’t really concern herself with Americans that often but is aware of how the Americanized Thai food is loved.
>>22277859Spice can be a crapshoot depending on whoever is cooking that day or how old the chilis are. I've had 5s that I barely noticed and 3s that made me shit out my soul.
>>22277852Fried chicken, grits, greens, bbq sauce. Beef ravioli, bolognese. Fried rice with shrimp, lime, herbs, ginger. Cheeseburgers.
>>22278180>lives in America>married to an American>doesn't concern herself with AmericansWhat?And I'm not talking about Americanized or westernized Thai food. Western foodies have been singing the praises of Thai food in Thailand for decades, not the versions of Thai food served outside of Thailand.
>>22278208What do you mean what? What is surprising to you about a Thai women who mostly has Thai friends?
>>22278180>>22278208Is Thai food Americanized in the US?That's weirdHere in Australia I'd say most Thai restaurant food is exactly the same as I've eaten in Thailand. They don't really dumb it down here
this is usually a sunday snack for me but it's a breezy day outside so I figured might as well make it a breezy day inside, and get my massive antioxidant dose in early>bluebreeze>raspbreeze>blackbreeze
>>22277852You are so ugly and annoying that you had to purchase a mail order bride
>>22278500what a rude thing to say
>>22277852I'd fuck your wife so hard her mother would cum
>>22278222>Is Thai food Americanized in the US?That depends on whether it's an actual Thai restaurant or if it's fusion cuisine.
>>22278222>They don't really dumb it down heresubtle, i like
>>22277852'clette & 'cuterie
>>22278528Damn this photo is like 1 year old lol>>22278500Ok>>22278550Healthy>>22278435This is gonna be my breakfast today
>>22278110>>22278115>>22278063this is such a creepy thing to say, how could an editor allow this to be published?it is absolutely repulsive both as a compliment and as a condemnation. if someone i knew was on record saying this, i'd probably try to cut them out of my life.
>>22278733It just sounds like a joke to me that pokes fun at the stereotypical, boorish western tourist. The funniest ones are the jokes that are also a bit truthful. Back then, people knew how to take a joke and didn't go on Internet crusades over them.
>>22278746you might have something wrong with you yourself, if you only noticed what he said about westerners and consider what he said about thai people to be normal
>>22278752It still comes off as a tongue in cheek joke to me. Exaggerating how "perfect" the tiny and compact Thai are in comparison to the loud, American triple seater makes the joke funnier.
>>22278167>She likes "Laos" style Thai food.Me again >>22277936/>>22277923That Thai roommate felt the same way.Are we sure your wife isn't in her forties and studied at Penn?
>>22278763Negative sir. My wife and I met in 2015. She was 24 years old I think then. We’re 36 and 32 now. She’s also not really aged since I met her. Real Thai vampire. Perhaps a demon or something.
Thai wife anon here. I just woke up and came downstairs and she made me Cajun red beans and rice and salad. Lol wtf
She works tonight too.
Salad. She just makes whatever
I’m about to be eating scrambled eggs and sausageAfter i pick up some eggs
For her first time making this it’s very good. But she already makes a delicious gumbo. >>22278880Yum
Leftover pork kra pao
>>22277852>>22277865Could you please explain to me the dipping sauces. I see these two are a tad different. One... what does it consist of besides what I am assuming is garlic, chilli, onion, fish sauce, and lime, and two.... how do you use them?I mean, your kra pao looks well sauced, but I could maybe see using the pepper sauce like a hot sauce topping, but I'll be honest, your curry pic is throwing me. Not super familiar with thai food, and I know I've thrown tabasco and/or a splash of lemon into a soup before serving, but a the pairing just seems odd to an ignoramus like myslef
>>22278911The first one for krapao is prik nam pla. The sauce with the southern Thai Islamic beef curry is actually the wrong one we normally eat with it. She was too lazy to make the sauce that day because we make a big batch of the curry and freeze it and I think that was our 7th time having that same batch. Here’s a picture of the sauce that normally comes with it. I can’t describe the name of the sauce but I’ll ask my wife and tell you. As for eating it with krapao. I sprinkle some on the egg. And then lots of chilli and garlic on the krapao. I’m a Neanderthal so usually I use the entire serving.
>>22278922Another example of a kra pao with prik nam pla but less chili or maybe I had put most of it on already.
>>22278922Update to this. She has her own recipe that she won’t share (she vibe cooks everything and never uses measurements). But she gave the name and the general recipe. Since the beef curry isn’t spiced normally you have to use this. And it compliments it so well. She says “if you’re not Thai you won’t make it to Thai taste”.
>>22278944
>>22278946More comments from the magical chef herself.
>>22278855>She’s also not really aged since I met her. Real Thai vampire. Perhaps a demon or something.Bro, you married a krasoo/krasue. You ever see her head, spine and organs leave her body at night to float around the neighbourhood, glowing eerily all-the-while, to feed on human blood? If so, yeah: deffo krasoo.
>>22278957Never seen it but she likes to eat infinite amounts of food and never gains any weight. So she must be a “hungry ghost” or the ghost of “cooking food”. Something very benevolent and cute!
>>22278948Can you confirm that azn p*ssy is really SIDEWAYS???Thanks for your input.
>>22278971Sir this is a food and cooking thread not /b/.
>>22278975This question pertains to EATING, which is tangentially related to food and cooking.Thank you for your consideration.
>>22278981Zip it up anon and let’s talk about food. Kek
>>22278222Came here to concur with ozanon. The Asian food down here is top tier just like it is in there home lands, probably due to proximity to Asia.
Veal liver with onions and vinegar.
>>22278877>>22278883Yikes. Tell her I said she should stick to Thai food and leave American food to the Americans.
Tonight I had a packet of cheesy ramen with four soft boiled eggs and a small tin of beans.Had some milk to go with it and frozen mango chunks for dessert

>>22277942I will never understand why they don't do adult sized fromage frais pots
>>22280821Do you have a Thai basil plant or do you get it at the grocery store? The one store that I know that carries it is a 90 minute drive, thinking about buying some dried>>22281352Healthiest anon on the board, your breeze quality is really good>>22281414Creative, I like it
