Tips:
- Use wide rice noodles. These noodles are more absorbent and will hold the sauce better than thin noodles.
- Soak the noodles before cooking. This will help them to soften and cook evenly.
- Use a wok or large skillet. This will allow you to cook the noodles and sauce together without overcrowding the pan.
- Cook the noodles according to the package directions. Be sure not to overcook them, as they will continue to cook in the sauce.
- Use a variety of vegetables. This will add color, texture, and flavor to your Pad Thai.
- Use a good quality tamarind paste. This is the key ingredient in Pad Thai sauce and will give it its characteristic sour flavor.
- Don't be afraid to adjust the sauce to your taste. Add more tamarind paste for a sourer sauce, or more sugar for a sweeter sauce.
- Serve Pad Thai immediately. This dish is best enjoyed fresh.
