Thai Satay, Delicious Variations Possible

Thai satay is one Thai food dish that has gained immense popularity in Thailand and all over the world. When you talk about Thai satay sticks or satay skewers, the dish can be made with some options for the meat. The above image shows Thai pork satay, but the same satay recipe can be used to make Thai meat satay with beef, pork or chicken. Kaisilver has compiled the satay recipe in an easy to understand form with clear step by instructions. When you give a first glance at the list of ingredients to make Thai satay, the whole task of cooking satay seems to be a complicated one but, stay cool and follow the easy instructions. The results will be thrilling and delicious.

When you talk about eating satay, another side dish that is almost always eaten with Thai satay comes to mind. This is the satay sauce or satay peanut sauce. When making your own Thai satay, it is a good idea to put some effort to make your own Thai satay sauce too, our easy recipe for satay sauce will ensure that this is done easily.

Coming back to the Thai satay recipe, there is one step that is going to take some time to complete. This is the stage when you need to mariante (soak) the meat strips in the marinade solution. Fortunately, not much of your time is required in doing this. All you need to do is to quickly make the marinade, soak the strips and leave the mixture aside for around 30 minutes. We ofcourse show you how to make the marinate for the Thai satay dish too. Keeping the time consumed for the soaking in mind, we would suggest that you start making the Thai satay about an hour before you actually want to serve the completed Thai satay skewers with the satay sauce.

Satay Peanut Sauce Recipe

Satay sauce is a very popular Thai dish, we prefer to call it a side dish as it is eaten along with Thai satay.  The above image shows a piece of Thai satay on a stick being dipped into a bowl of delicious Thai satay sauce. For those of you who like your food milder, or are not used to the heat and fire of Thai food - there are simple ways to moderate the heat in your satay peanut sauce.

It is quite interesting to see that the ingredients to make satay sauce, do not include chillies. Red curry paste a very popular ingredient used in Thai food is added to give spice and ‘hotness’ to the Thai satay sauce. You might have guessed now, that the porportion of the red curry paste can be adjusted to suit your taste preference. You are also lucky because, peanuts are also used in the satay sauce recipe. By increasing the porpotion of roasted peanuts in the sauce, you could reduce the heat level of the dish.

Most of the ingredients used to make thai satay sauce are common and easily available. The satay sauce recipe itself is easy and simple, not much of cooking and not much of fussing. If you had to compare the sheer relish and joy of eating your very own satay peanut sauce, with the effort needed to actually make it - you will find that very little effort is actually required. You can get to the Kaisilver satay sauce recipe at http://www.thaifood.food-recipe-cooking.com/satay-sauce-recipe-frc-nv-01.htm and if you cannot find ready red curry paste in an Asian store, we provide you with information to make that too.

Crystal Healers Believe That Cleansing Crystals Makes Them More Effective

Crystal Cleansing, What Is Crystal Cleansing.

Before we move into this report on cleansing crystals, we would like to make a very important statement here. While Kaisilver can get you any gemstone or crystal that is found on our planet, we do not claim any special powers for the crystals or gems that we or anyone sell. After receiving dozens of queries regarding cleansing of crystals, Kaisilver experts decided to compile a researched report on this topic. Crystal healers claim that some sort of initiation or tuning for crystals is required before using them for crystal therapy or crystal cleaning. The term used for this is cleansing, and our report provides an insight into crystal cleansing.

Cleansing with reference to crystals and crystal theraphy is not about merely cleaning the dust and dirt that might be stuck to a crystal. While merely cleaning a crystal could be seen as a physical activity, the term crystal cleansing implies something more solemn, something that is spiritual rather than physical. Kaisilver research has found that, most crystal therapy experts recommend crystal cleansing for new and existing crystals. We need to clarify the terms new and old crystals - we will do that right now.

When you have just brought a crystal into your life, we refer to it as a new crystal. The crystal might have purchased from a shop, gifted to you by a friend,  or even dug up from the earth by you. Infact it is very possible that someone who is already practising crystal meditation or therapy with that particular crystal, gifted or sold it to you. With reference to our subject ALL these crystals would be called ‘new’. The fact that they might have already been cleansed and used by someone else before there were sold to you, means nothing. A crystal that has newly entered your life needs to be cleansed.

With the above broad classification of new crystals, you might be wondering what the term old crystals would include. This is really quite simple, any crystal that is already with you and is currently being used for crystal healing, crystal theraphy or crystal meditation will be regarded as an old crystal. In all probability, you would have cleansed the crystal before you started working with it.

One thing that needs to be essentially understood is that, both new and old crystals need to be cleansed. When it comes to new crystals that have just come into your posession, the cleansing process is a bit more involved and takes a longer time to complete.  For crystal that have already been used for your meditation or therapy (by you) a brief rejuvenating re-cleansing process is recommended. These processes are generally of a shorter duration as compared to cleansing crystlals for the first time.

We need to address the issue about the need for crystal cleansing. Why should you cleanse your crystals, what are the benefits of crystal cleansing. Crystal therapists believe that, crystals can acquire and transmit energies. A crystal that is packed with positive energy, can transfer those energies to a person pracitising crystal meditation or crystal therapy. A crystal is capable of absorbing both, positive and negative energies. For example, if you are experiencing negative energies related to depression, restlessness etc - it is claimed that crystals when used could suck those negative energies out of your mind and body. The cleansing of crystals neutralizes the stone, it gets washed of any negative energies that might exist within. It gets tuned to pick your energy and serve your purpose. In the case of old gems that have been used over a period of time, re-cleansing will do a similar thing and take away any negative energy that might have been acquired by the crystal.

You might now be interested in knowing how to cleanse a crystal. There are a few ways in which crystals can be cleansed, some methods might not be very suitable for specific crystals. For example, you would ideally not soak a turquoise stone in water for too long. This is because turquoise can get damaged if left in water for long. Some crystal therapists, recommend sunshine bathing to cleanse crystals. You need to make sure that the crystals that you plan to cleanse in this way will not be damaged by the heat and light of the sun. Kaisilver has compiled a more comprehensive report on crystal cleansing, you can read the information at http://www.international.food-recipe-cooking.com/cleansing-crystals-crystal-healing-frc-01.htm You are always welcome to write to our experts at sales@kaisilver.com with any queries or doubts that you might have.

Colored Diamonds Natural and Treated

The days of white or colorless diamonds are not numbered, but the increased availability and affordability of colored diamonds is making buyers happy. Well known for their rarity and exhorbitant prices, colored diamonds were once meant exclusively for the rich and famous. Those were the days when the posh jewelry houses virtually said that, …. you could not afford a color diamond ring if you had to ask about the price !

Back to the present and things look much better. Jewelers offer color diamond rings and other color diamond jewelry at prices that will suit many budgets. So why did this change come about? After all, the volume of color diamonds mined each year is a tiny fraction of, the total diamond output from the mines. And the fact that demand exceeds supply for natural color diamonds is no secret. This is the perfect excuse for diamond jewelers to spike up prices.

The important thing that most color diamond jewelry buyers do not know is that, most of the colored diamonds sold today have been treated to change color. Yes, this is true but rarely known - the lack of information ofcourse works to the advantage of the diamond jewelry sellers. Diamond manufacturing houses have learnt how to take white diamonds with flaws and even clarity and turn them to gorgeous yellow diamonds, brown diamonds, orange diamonds, green diamonds, pink diamonds and even pink diamonds. Over 95% of the diamonds mined are of the white (colorless) variety, being able to process these to color diamonds, adds beauty and this pleases the buyer. At the same time, enhanced colors also enhance the value of the stones - this more than pleases the seller.

So what is wrong in selling treated color diamonds. Nothing really AS LONG AS the buyer is informed of the fact that he is getting enhanced treated color diamonds. AND ofcourse, as long as the buyer is being charged for enhanced colored diamonds and not color diamonds with a natural color. Just be careful with the jargon, both natural color and color enhanced diamonds are ‘natural’ in the sense that, they both originate from natural diamonds mined from the earth. However diamonds with natural color are rarer and more expensive as compared to natural diamonds that have been imparted a different color by way of various treatments.

You can read more about treated and natural color diamonds at http://www.jewelry.kaijewels.com/colored-diamonds-natural-or-treated-kj-info-01.htm and email our support experts at sales@kaisilver.com if you need any more information or have any more doubts. Once you have all the information to help you make the right buying decision - make the purchase from any jeweler that you feel comfortable with.

Avacados Can Help Your Heart

The Kaisilver team recently came across a surprising error in a reputed cooking and slimming magazine. The topic was about avocados and the health benefits of an avocado. The writer kept ranting about how avocados with their cholestrol content can be harmful if eaten. Even a little research would have avoided such wrong and careless statements from getting published. Kaisilver is not an expert in health and food, we remain the world’s leading online source for highend custom made jewelry. Once in a while, our team takes time of from their busy gems and jewelry activities and spends time reading or studying some useful and interesting content. In this brief report we talk about the benefits of eating avocados.

All of us are aware and afraid of the dangers of high cholestrol. What many people are not aware is that, medical experts classify two types of cholestrol - good cholestrol (HDL) and bad cholestrol (LDL). Do not worry about the exact meaning of the two, your doctor will take care of that. However all that you need to know that not all cholestrol is bad. Your body needs some amount of HDL (good cholestrol). Avocados do contain cholestrol but, fortunately not the bad one. So this means that the health benefits of avocados as a source of good cholestrol is indeed valuable. Since cholestrol or the lack of it, reflects on the health and condition of your heart, you can rest assured that the cholestrol present in avocados is needed by your body.

Good cholestrol is not the only nutritional benefit provided by an avocado, there is still more good news. Sodium is something that can work to negatively affect your heart condition. On the other hand potassium actually helps the body, and the health benefits of avocados is one again impressive here. Avocados do not contain sodium but, contain potassium.

Our intention of writing this brief report on avocados is not to criticize the magazine that published the wrong information. However we are genuinely concerned that such information can mislead people and therefore prevent the general public from getting the genuine benefits of consuming a specific type of food. Kaisilver has compiled a more comprehensive report on avocados and this can be read at http://www.health.food-recipe-cooking.com/avocado-benefits-health-heart-frc-01.htm We would once again like to state that we have no business interest in the growing or marketing of avocados or any other edible product. Do email our team at sales@kaisilver.com if you have any suggestions or comments to make.

Bio Products In Asia, Focus On Thailand

Bio products are the trend today, healthy living starts with healthy food and global interest in bio based products has shown sharp rise. For some Asian countries like Thailand, natural resources to support the production of bio based products abound. The hurdle for countries like Thailand to fully implement bio based product development, packaging and marketing are slowly but surely being resolved. A visit to the recently held Bio Product Fair in Bangkok, Thailand had some very pleasant surprises.

While agri produce like brown unpolished rice, soya bean extract and even non edible bio products is nothing new in Thailand - the development in processing, packaging and branding of complete bio products is truly impressive. A good example would be brown rice which is also called unpolished rice. This agri product was developed into various products, well beyond the conventional cooking and boiling. Brown rice chips that can be eaten as snacks were attractively presented. Low on fat and sugar, these brown rice chips are tasty and nutritous. The Bio Product Show in Bangkok also had brown rice porridge packs, quick to cook and available in natural ripe banana flavor, this is another innovative way to get the benefits of the high fibre and mineral content in brown rice.

Not all the bio based products at the Thailand fair were meant to be eaten! Bio based single use food containers and plates were also on display. The bio degradable material used to produce these plates and packs could finally replace the styro foam food packs that abound in Bangkok and other parts of Thailand. Another manufacturer took the bio product meaning to new heights. Small boxes and boards of material developed from dried stalks of rice plants combined with bio based glues. There is no shortage of dried rice stalk in Thailand a country that is one of the leading global players in rice cultivation.

If you wish to see more details from the Bio Product Show, check out this Kaisilver report at http://www.leisure.food-recipe-cooking.com/thailand-bio-products-fcr-01.htm Kaisilver the world’s leading online custom made jewellery provider is not connected with the bio industry or any of the products shown in this report.

Add Flavor To Thai Food, Spicy Chilli Oil

Naam Phrik

Thai spicy chilli oil is one of the very popular ingredients used in Thai food dishes. If you have ever tasted and enjoyed Thai seafood, it is very likely that Naam Phrik or Spicey Chilli Oil was used to add flavor to the dish. If you are interested in cooking Thai food as a hobby or as a profession, it is necessary to get to know the main ingredients used in Thai food. It is quite common for enthusiastic cooks to try their hand at cooking Thai food and not being happy with the flavor that the dish gets. While it does take time, talent and patience to become an expert at cooking Thai food, we have found that many cooks forget the main ingredient used to give the basic flavor to the specific dish being cooked. While Kai Silver is not involved in the food or hotel business, we do let our staff take time out from our main Custom Jewelry Operations and travel around.

We have put up the complete recipe for Naam Phrik with easy steps and explanations. However if you want to get straight to making your Thai food dish, without getting into the intricacies of making your own spicy chili oil, you can most probably buy a can or bottle of readymade Naam Phrik from an Asian grocery store. If you are interested to know the meaning of Naam Phrik, here it is. The Naam translates to water, the word Phrik means chillies. Ofcourse the water in this case is referred to as the liquid (which is oil) used as an ingredient in making Thai chilli oil.

You can access the recipe for this Thai food ingredient below but, we would like to add a small note here. If you wish to make the very famous Thai Spicy Prawn Soup also called, Tom Yaam Kung, you will need a similar ingredient to Naam Phrik - however there is a subtle difference in the ingredients used to make the Naam Phrik Tom Yam. The Spicey Prawn Soup uses the chilli oil recipe without much oil.

Check out the Thai Spicy Chilli Oil Recipe here  http://www.thaifood.food-recipe-cooking.com/spicy-chili-oil-nam-phrik-phow-th-nv.htm We do hope that you enjoy cooking and eating your Thai food.

Ribose Could Hasten Heart Recovery

Encouraging Results For Sugar To Boost Heart Recovery

As of July 2011, this test has been medically performed only on animals. However the possibility of using ribose a simple type of sugar, to treat heart surgery or even heart attack patients is encouraging. Heart surgery is stressful for the patient and also for the heart. The recovery period after a heart surgery is quite lengthy, the heart takes a few weeks or months to come back to it’s normal efficiency. This obviously involves the use of medicines and adjustments in regular activities for the patients. The longer the recovery period the more stressful the situation for the patient.

Medical experts have been researching the possibility of using sugar as a stimulant, for speeding up the time required for the heart to recover. The idea is that sugar in form of ribose, helps the heart come back to it’s normal (or near normal) condition much faster. This has been proved on animals and doctors feel that it could be tried on human beings fairly soon. We do not recommend that you try the treatment on your own without medical advise or supervision.

Heart surgery is not the only situation where the heart gets stressed out. A heart attack is another medical condition that could require long recovery periods for the heart. The ribose treatment to enhance the recovery time for the heart could be useful in these conditions too. We once again recommend that you NOT try the treatment on your own, it is a medical process that needs to be done under strict medical supervision.

Should the use of sugar to be able to speed up the recovery time for heart surgery or heart attack patients, medical research would end up with a big bonus find too. Any medical condition that makes it necessary for the heart to recover over a period of time, is risky for the patient. You could say that the heart patient is under a risk all through the recovery period, the longer the heart recovery period the longer the risk stays. Therefore, any solution that could go towards shortening the recovery time will also shorten the period that the patient is under a risk.

The interesting information has been compiled by the Kaisilver team. These interesting health articles are reported by way of information, we do not recommend that you try any of them without consulting your regular medical adviser. Though we are basically highend custom jewelry providers, we feel that it is our responsibility to contribute to society in a way that will make better life for all.
