Why Pad Thai deserves more attention

Pad Thai rarely gets the international recognition it deserves. The deeply aromatic complexity is genuine, not simple, and the technique involved in using fish sauce correctly takes real skill.

fresh herbs and aromatics are added at the last moment to preserve fragrance. I encountered it first in a traditional home kitchen and that context helped me understand it properly. Singha beer is the natural accompaniment and the combination makes the case for the dish. If you haven't explored this cuisine seriously, Pad Thai is the dish to start with.
