Spicy Salads

• Thai salads are health- enhancing. The whole dish is packed with medicinal benefits and scrumptious mouthfeel that make us feel refreshed and energized. Thai salads are very low in carbohydrates aand hence calories as they have no dairy-based dressings or ingredients like pasta or strachy vegetables.

• While oil is an indispensable component for most westem-style fressings, Thai versions require none. Some people relate Thai fressing to laton America salsa. Both are light and refreshing.

• They blend a vast array of ingredients, creating a resulting flavor that tastes more than a sum of its part. If desired, you can make the dressing in advance. However, it is advised to taste and adjust for sourness before using since lime quickly diddipates and your dressing may end up too salty or too hot.

About Me

In 2012 I began my cooking journey in Brasil and studied at “Senac, Juiz de Fora”, in Minas Gerais, developing my basic culinary techniques.

Later I worked in a local restaurant, and rose to a role in management, helping to increase the clientele base. I then discovered a refined bistro called “Assunta” in Minas Gerais and cooked as a Chef de parti. In this place I became sure of what I wanted for my life. Learning an important chef’s culinary art at that time aroused my desire to live abroad; learn English and improve my culinary techniques.

Following this experience I traveled to Ireland in Europe and began working in an Irish restaurant as a Kitchen Porter and later working as a Chef de Parti.

Having met my girlfriend, I embarked on the third part of journey to Thailand in 2014 where I gained an Asian cooking experience and improved my International culinary techniques. In Bangkok I had the privilege of undertaking a course in one of the most prestigious international networks of French cuisine; “Le Cordon Bleu”.

Having completed the Advanced cooking level there I traveled to Italy and learnt more about Mediterranean cooking and then returned to Brasil, where I’m now based.
