Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Thai chicken-coconut soup

    • johnelstad on February 08, 2026

      This was a very easy dish to make and it turned out wonderfully. I didn't have garangal, so I used ginger as recommended. I also used only a tablespoon of sriracha instead of the 1/3 cup recommended. It was just the right amount of spice for the family. I served it over jasmine rice. Next time I would at least double the chicken portion so it feels more substantial.

  • Sriracha and Spam fried rice

    • stacey_nn0o4j on May 06, 2026

      Easy, tasty (especially the Spam, which I had not eaten in years) and not too spicy.

  • Spiced Sriracha truffles

    • cjannace on December 21, 2014

      This was my first attempt at making truffles, so there was definitely a learning curve for me! It definitely did not seem like there was enough cream to melt the chocolate, so I had to improvise a double-boiler to melt the chocolate completely. My other big issues was that the directions say to drop the ganache onto a baking sheet, refrigerate for 30 minutes, then roll them into a ball. I wish I had made them a bit more even before refrigerating because they needed to sit out before I could mold them. I would definitely add a bit more sriracha to the recipe. I also added some cayenne pepper to the cocoa powder to add a bit more heat & spice. (And trust me, I am not the spice lover in my household!) Overall I think these are a great treat and I will make them again.
