Our expert Chef Instructor will share tips on handling traditional Asian ingredients like lemongrass, ginger, curry paste, cilantro, and more to maximize flavor. You will gain insight on how to source fresh, seasonal ingredients and specialty spices in order to recreate the perfect Pad Thai at home.
