Pad Thai is probably one of Thailand’s most popular noodle dishes. The classic sweet, tangy, and spicy combination associated with Thai food truly whets one’s appetite. Chopped peanuts add crunch, texture, and additional flavor to the dish. It is a tasty dish, not to be missed!

Usually made with flat rice noodles, Pad Thai is suitable for those on a gluten free diet. These dried rice noodles can be purchased at most Asian grocery stores. They do come in various sizes. Choose one similar to that of fettuccine. These noodles should be pre-soaked in hot water to soften before using. They do tend to be quite starchy. Rinsing after soaking will help remove some of the starch. This will make the noodles less gummy and more manageable when fried.

Two essential ingredients in Pad Thai are fish sauce and tamarind juice. Always buy the best quality fish sauce you can afford. They tend to be less salty and “fishy”. Fresh tamarind can be a challenge to find here but tamarind concentrate in plastic jars from Thailand is a convenient substitute. This dish can be made as mild or spicy as desired with the use of chili paste. The one shown here is hardly spicy at all.
