Thai Curry Guide

Green, red, yellow, Panang, Massaman and the regional curries that refuse to fit neatly into one coconut-milk box.

Not all Thai curry uses coconut milk

Northern and jungle-style curries can be brothy or coconut-free.

Paste matters

The paste supplies the aromatic architecture; coconut milk is not a substitute for a weak paste.

Taste before fish sauce

Commercial curry pastes vary wildly in salt, so seasoning by reflex is how you make expensive seawater.
