Then a tutorial on a few special dishes starting with attendees’ hand crafting their own Pork Momos – handmade steamed pork dumplings with chili sambal and fragrant soy sauce to dip. Our chefs educate us on Thai “heat” as they explain the different chilies and spices used to enhance various dishes making them not only spicy but incredibly flavorful. Learn to make a few special dishes starting with a Spicy Glass Noodle salad – shrimp, lime juice, shallots, mint, cilantro, scallions, Thai bird chilies and Thai style chicken satay – skewered marinated chicken strips, peanut sauce, cucumber onion ajat (quick pickle). Enjoy a mini-taste of a refreshing Thai Lime Margarita – lemongrass and lime reduction with a touch of agave nectar.
