Go to one of the many ebook websites and search for Thai cookbooks. I just downloaded five of them in about ten minutes.

Depending on what country you're in, the biggest challenge will be finding the ingredients. Be warned that even if you find something that is "the same", it often won't taste right to her because the soil chemistry, manufacturing processes, or whatever are different from Thailand's.

Maybe, but Thai restaurants in the US are in the same boat so it shouldn't taste different from them. His point is he wants to cook it himself instead of paying the markup at restaurants.

True, but OTOH the restaurants presumably are run by Thais who can at least judge whether a particular brand is close or complete garbage.

Does ur wife have any hawt genetically-female friends who were born without a penis and who are very intelligent and want a foreign husband?

You have a wife and want to cook for her? Is she leaving you?

>>9033086
Is your wife the dude in the middle?

Tom Yum soup is probably the first bona fide Thai recipe that comes to mind. It's really fucking good and incorporates basically all of the traditional ingredients/spices from Thailand, so you can't go wrong using that as a starting point.

Learning from people. I learned pretty much every Thai dish I'd want to cook from my mom. Basically just get some lime, fish sauce, chilis, mushroom powder and go to town. Alternatively use MSG. That will really make em nostalgic.
