Traditional Thai cuisine can be split up loosely into four categories: tom (boiled dishes like a soup), yam (spicy salads), tam (pounded foods, so pounding the ingredients to coax the flavours and aromas without making a paste) and kaeng (curries) – our Thai-inspired page will help cater to each of these whether that’s through recipes or our delicious product range – take a look below!

42% of consumers already eat Thai food when dining out*

Even though Thai food might not necessarily be a new concept to some, it is a cuisine that many people already eat and enjoy as a part of their eating out habits. Including Thai-inspired favourite meals on your menu can be a great way to add global cuisines to your menu.

The total proportion of dishes containing meat declined from 2019 to 2022*

Whilst Thai food can include meat, their most popular dish is Pad Thai, which is stir-fried noodles with a combination of classic ingredients such as – eggs, peanuts, bean sprouts. Often in traditional Thai restaurants they then give the option to add tofu, prawns or meat. This is a great way to add a touch of personalisation to the dish.
