When it comes to Southeast Asian cuisine, there are a lot of similarities between the different countries. After all, they all use similar ingredients and cooking methods. However, there are also some distinct differences. Today, we'll look at the difference between Vietnamese and Thai food.

One of the biggest differences between Vietnamese and Thai food is the use of spices. Thai cuisine is known for being quite spicy, while Vietnamese food is relatively mild. Thai dishes often include ingredients like chilli peppers, while Vietnamese dishes typically use black pepper.

Another difference between these two cuisines is the use of noodles. Both Vietnam and Thailand use rice noodles in many of their dishes. However, Vietnam also uses a type of noodle made from wheat flour called pho noodles. Pho noodles are used in the country's national dish, pho soup. Thai cuisine, on the other hand, relies primarily on rice noodles.

Finally, the sauces used in Vietnamese and Thai dishes differ quite a bit. Vietnamese cuisine often uses fish sauce, while Thai cuisine frequently employs peanut sauce. In addition, sweet chilli sauce is a popular condiment in Thailand that you won't find in most Vietnamese dishes.

What is Thai main food?

Pad Thai is a popular dish from Thailand that consists of small, thin or wide noodles stir-fried with beansprouts, onion, and egg in a searing hot wok. The dish is also flavoured with fish sauce, dried shrimp, garlic or shallots, red chilli peppers, and palm sugar.

There are many reasons why Thai food is so popular. One reason is that it has a wide range of flavours. Authentic Thai cuisine combines many different ingredients to create unique flavour combinations. You'll find fresh vegetables, bold spices, savoury flavours like peanuts, and even sweet flavours like coconut in Thai dishes.

What do Vietnamese eat daily?

The Vietnamese diet centers around rice, vegetables and fish. Common cooking methods include steaming or stir-frying. Rice is usually eaten at every meal in some form or another. Adults typically have three meals daily consisting of steamed rice with side dishes of vegetables, fish or meat.

What are popular foods in Vietnamese?

Pho is easy to find, no matter where you are in Vietnam. Walking a block in Vietnam is nearly impossible without running into a group of people eagerly slurping noodles at a pho stand. This simple dish, which consists of a salty broth, fresh rice noodles, herbs, and chicken or beef, is widely eaten here - and for a good reason. It's inexpensive, delicious, and available anytime, day or night.
