Hot Thai Kitchen: Demystifying Thai Cuisine with Authentic Recipes to Make at Home

The conclusive Thai cookbook from a YouTube star!

Experiencing childhood in Thailand, Pailin Chongchitnant went through her adolescence with the kitchen as her play area. Since early on, she would wait by the oven, taking in seeing blanketed white coconut being destroyed, the smell of lemongrass-mixed soups, and the sound of the pestle beating against the stone mortar.

A long time later, as a Cordon Bleu–taught cook in San Francisco, Pailin distinctively recalled the culinary encounters of her childhood. Thus, on YouTube, Hot Thai Kitchen was conceived. Joining her affection for instructing with her commitment to Thai food, Pailin promptly associated with a great many fans who needed a companion and teacher.

In this eagerly awaited cookbook, Pailin brings her unmistakable warmth and great strategy to Thai food darlings all over the place. She starts by taking perusers on a delightfully shot outing to Thailand to investigate the culinary culture and building blocks vital to Thai food. With idiot proof and simple to-adhere to guidelines, Pailin separates the key fixings, flavors, hardware, and procedures important to ace genuine Thai cooking. At that point, she shares her must-make plans for curries, soups, servings of mixed greens, and sautés, remembering whole sections for veggie lover and vegetarian dishes, plunges and plunging sauces, and lavish Thai sweets. With QR codes to video instructional exercises put all through the book, you'll have the option to interface with Pailin on the web, as well.

Both a complete asset and an uncommon investigation of Thai food, Hot Thai Kitchen will please and rouse you in your Thai cooking venture.

About the Author
PAILIN CHONGCHITNANT was born and raised in Thailand. After attending the University of British Columbia, she made her way to Le Cordon Bleu culinary school in San Francisco, and began cooking for both Western and Thai restaurants. She is the creator and host of Hot Thai Kitchen, a popular cooking show on YouTube, which takes an educational approach to Thai cuisine. Visit her at www.hot-thai-kitchen.com

I was really excited to finally receive my copy of Pailin's book. It's been on pre-order for months and I've long been a fan of her amazing cooking videos for awhile, so today was truly a great day when it finally arrived. What I was really pleased with to see immediately is that Pai did an excellent job at putting a substantial amount of information in the first few chapters of the book that go really far in explaining a lot of the foundation of Thai cooking. As you may know from her videos, she is an excellent teacher in that she communicates really clearly what she is doing, how to do it correctly, and most importantly, WHY she is doing it. (and all with a dose of charm!) Cooking isn't just assembling a bunch of ingredients in a bowl. Knowing how and when to add an ingredient and what that ingredient is contributing to the recipe in terms of flavor and texture is very important. I think that is why Pai can help you make good recipes great when you are actually preparing them. There is a lot of info on the various ingredients, from herbs to sweeteners to all the unique sauces that are used. And yes, we all wish we had a friendly Thai grocer down the street, but for most of us in N. America, that isn't common, so she gives some good tips on finding ingredients or when she believes "Educated substitutions" (good word choice) or even omissions are ok for the sake of the recipe. You should never let a lack of finding a key ingredient keep you from trying to learn these recipes, so she will help you overcome! There is also a section specifically on vegetarian and vegan dishes which is really great as that diet is quite common and Thai food lends itself really well to being easily offered in a veg variation. --Brad B.

Loved this so much I got 2 more as gifts for my little Brother and best friend. Pailin's YouTube Video's got me through some tough days over 3 months in the hospital for treatment in 2015. was waiting on this book to come out. Have been cooking Thai food since 1990, took about 30 classes over a 3 year period, and while I am pretty proficient, I really liked some of her takes on dishes, as well as new ones. I also liked her opening 60 pages, which give you some of the origins and underpinnings of Thai cuisine, which I got in my classes in the back room of the Royal Thai restaurant in Newport Beach, but are good for others learning and deeper understanding of why Thai food has layers of tastes in it. Like other Asian cuisines, too many Americans get used to the way the dishes have been altered to our tastes. Pailin's book gives you the authentic way to make things, while also letting you leverage some of the pastes, sauces and ingredients that are now more readily available today. And gives you substitutions for availability, tastes and items you may need to avoid. But also tells you when to avoid those, VERY important in my eyes. And the easy Scan Codes to leap to her YouTube Video on a particular method or Recipe really makes this a great gift for your friends and family. Because while I truly love to be told I will be cooking for a big group when I visit, it is time to Pay it Forward, and this book gives you that ability, while keeping it fun and easy, even for the nieces and nephews.

There are a number of good Thai books available, but I've found no better source of inspiration and guidance than this author. Well written, easy to follow with a bit of education thrown in for fun. Almost all of the ingredients are available nationwide, so get this book, a few "tools" and try some of these dishes. Your friends and family will thank you! Start with the "Falling Water" spicy beef salad...it's incredible. Her book will show you how to see the free video to watch it being made.16 people found this helpful --Dan N
