First, we’ll go over the basic cooking techniques you’ve seen on Thai menus but may not have noticed before! Here they are, all laid out and easy to understand.
If you like Thai food, you’ve probably enjoyed a dish of pad Thai once or twice. Pad, or P̄hạd, means “to stir fry” something. It’s a very common cooking technique! So, when you order a dish with pad in the title, it’s going to be stir-fried, whether it’s rice or noodles. Delicious!
Tom is another common type of cooking technique. Tom, or Tôm, means “to boil.” Most often, on a menu, it’s referring to soup dishes. For example, tom kha gai is a chicken coconut cream soup! If you want something warm and tasty, look for something like this on our menu!
Another cooking technique you’ll find on our menu is yum, which refers to mixing ingredients. For example, the term can be used for salads that are all tossed and mixed together. But on the other hand, yum can mean spicy or salty flavors found in various dressings or soups!
The last technique on our list today is tod, also know as thxd. Tod refers to deep-frying dishes, which are different from stir-fry but still traditional Thai cooking! The most popular menu item you’ll find here at Giant of Siam is our delightful tod mann!
