Thai seasoning sweetness

The sweet taste found in Thai food is partly derived naturally from some of various meats used and partly by adding other sweeteners to further enhance the flavor. The key sweetening agent is, of course, sugar, of which comes in a variety of forms, including refined sugar, palm sugar, and brown sugar. As different kinds of sugars have varying levels of sweetness, the type of sugar used affects the overall flavor of food. Refined sugar has a sharp sweetness and does not change the color of the food. Palm sugar, on the other hand, has a milder in sweetness and suitable for food containing coconut milk. When dissolved over the heat and added to Thai noodle dishes or even the Thai food spicy casserole "Palo", palm sugar can improve the flavor as well as enhance the aroma of those dishes. Brown sugar, in powdered form, is suitable for certain kinds of food and sweet. Yet another kind of sugar namely palm sugar cakes, which are made from boiling palm sugar and ladled into chunks then left to dry.
