Thai dishes normally have a peculiar balance of the hot, sour, sweet and at times bitter, too. But the end products are so tongue tickling and tasty, one can hardly put them aside. Thai food, unlike chinese dishes which are flavoured with sauces of various kinds, are flavoured by a variety of curry pastes, prepared and stored in bulk, like the green curry paste or red curry paste for example.
