Green curry is a central Thai variety of curry (also known as gaeng in Thailand) and the type of curry, "green," derives from the color of the dish, which comes from green chilies. In our recipe, we make the dish less spicy by adding more Thai basil / regular basial to the green curry paste. Master this aromatic, delicious, and easy green curry with chicken and treat yourself to an authentic taste of Thailand!
Larb is a popular minced meat salad in Southeast Asia, particularly in Laos and Northeast Thailand. Larb is usually made with ground beef, chicken or duck flavored with lime juice and fish sauce (salty like soy sauce) and is always served with toasted rice and lettuce for scooping. In our version, we use ground meat flavored with lemongrass (an essential Thai aromatic), lime, cilantro, mint, gar-lic, and fish sauce, and serve it with cooked rice, pickled carrots, cucumber on lettuce cups.
Khao means "rice" and pad means “stir-fried". Crab fried rice is an easy and delicious one-pan meal that is popular as street food in Thailand. The difference between Thai fried rice and Chinese fried rice is that Thai version uses Jasmine rice while Chinese uses long-grain white rice. The addition of fish sauce is also unique to Thai fried rice.

"Bought him a subscription when it was just one type of box - so like the family one. We loved it! Now I see there’s a date night one for adults specifically and am very tempted to resubscribe for his next gift"
"So far so good. We accidentally used the wrong seasoning packet on our first meal, lol, but it was a great learning experience. So far everything seems easy to follow. I may have more thoughts after a few more boxes."
"We thoroughly enjoyed this Italy kit. It was thoughtfully put together and it makes for a really great few date nights! After doing our first one, we are both looking forward to cooking our next meal from our kitchen together!"
"I provided this to my clients after their cruise to France. They all loved it, and really thought it was unique. They also said that the chicken came out just like the recipe and was so moist and tasty."
"We have gotten all the kits from each country and our family really enjoys them! They're educational, not only for the kids but for us adults as well. The recipes bring us together as we learn facts about different countries, cooking techniques, and trying new food."
"It was such a great experience shopping for the ingredients together as a family and then coming home to cook it together! Such a great learning activity to add to homeschooling. My daughter is 4 and loved this whole experience! She got to learn about Greece too and then eat a dish we personally made. How fun is that!?"
"My 12y made Jamaican Curry. It came out delicious."
"Kids love exploring the world with this subscription. They love cooking the recipes. Instructions are easy to follow, and dishes are delicious! The passport and the flag pins are very exciting for them!"
"We got the apron and the cookbook, which is awesome, but we didn't get the 2 country boxes."
"I got my son the 6 month subscription to start and see how we liked it. So far we have enjoy each month. But all the months we have gotten have been countries from Asia and my son is started getting bored. I wish we would have gotten more of a variety of other countries. Overall we have enjoyed trying new recipes and foods that we wouldn’t have otherwise tried. I definitely would consider renewing our subscription in the future."
