Delicious Thai-style Soup Curry with Shiitake Powder
Adding Shiitake powder to any type of curry makes it more delicious, but as Thai curries use herbs, it pairs perfectly with dried Shiitake!
Shiitake has 2 types of aroma, the scent picked up by the nose before we eat it, and the smell that rises up from deep inside our throat after swallowing it. The latter scent is stronger for Shiitake, so it also amplifies spices' aroma and other ingredients.
Zen monks found Forest-grown Shiitake is the best Umami enhancer for Vegan Cuisine more than 1000-years ago in Japan. The drying and rehydrating process of Shiitake produces "Guanylate," a natural Umami energizer. Guanylate amplifies the Umami taste of all foods.
Unlike Dried Porcini, Shiitake can enhance the Umami taste of your cooking without adding a mushroom flavor.
Tips and tricks:
Adding a little water to Shiitake powder and waiting 10 minutes before using, maximizes 3x the Umami Flavor! One dry Tbsp equals one pre-soaked tsp, the same Umami boosting power. The drying and rehydrating process of Shiitake produces "Guanylate," a natural Umami energizer. Guanylate amplifies the Umami taste of all foods.

Thai Coconut Curry Soup Thai Coconut Curry Soup
Loosely based on a Thai recipe from a cooking class I took in Ko Lanta, Thailand made from ingredients easily sourced from my small local grocery store. I tried to do it this way to make the recipe more accessible. Not everyone has access to an Asian supermarket..I like spicy food so this will make a very spicy soup. (we're talkin' north-eastern Thai spicy!) Adjust the amount of chiles to taste. I used turkey since it's leaner and cheaper here. Use chicken, shrimp, or any source of protein.

Creamy Red Thai Curry Squash Soup Creamy Red Thai Curry Squash Soup
This soup is filling and luscious, while still being bright and fresh with the addition of lime, lemongrass and chile. Its best made with kobocha squash, which gives the soup an unparalleled creaminess, but pumpkin or butternut squash will work and it will still be awesome. I like to serve this with a side of jasmine rice and garnish with a sprinkle of pumpkin seeds, cilantro and a drizzle of heavy cream.
