Cultural Tip: Spicy Scale in Thai Cooking

When using spicy ingredients in Thai cooking, it’s important to understand the spice level. In Thai, the term เผ็ด (phèt) is used to describe spiciness. Recipes often include a scale from 1 to 5, with 5 being the spiciest. Make sure to adjust according to your spice tolerance!
