    That recipe looks great, definitely gonna try this. I have a few ideas for enhancement, substitution . . .
    You can actually buy pad Thai powder. It has most all the flavors in a powdered form.
    You can also buy peanut butter powder. That would save a fair bit of weight from using real peanut butter.
    I think a great addition to this would be some pre-grated cabbage and carrots. Real pad thai usually has bean sprouts or veggies for crunch. Cabbage and carrots last a long time without refrigeration.
    If you have an appropriate container, you could start soaking the rice noodles in water in the morning, and carry them in your pack. This cuts down on the cooking time, saving fuel.
    Finally, if you want that sort of citric acid and a little bit of heat, instead of a line you could use Mexican Tajin powder - basically citric acid and chili powder.

    @pavel9652 2 роки тому +3

    Great idea! I would not call it Pad Thai, though ;) I was thinking recently about it, b/c there are lots of Asian dishes that could be done this way. My PT sauce is 2tb soy sauce, 2tb fish sauce, 2tb sugar, 2tb lime juice, 1tb ketchup and a bit of ginger, chilli and clove of garlic. Would be enough for half a 500g pack of spaghetti/noodles. All the ingredients are required in small quantities and don't have to be refrigerated. Other good dishes are Yakisoba noodles, Singapore noodles (need more sauce than traditional IMHO), noodles with peanut butter sauce, chow mein, etc.

    • @ChefCorso

    Always interested to find ingredients I might not think about using. Discovered dehydrated peanut butter a couple of years ago. Watching some of your recipes with dehydrated coconut milk powder reopens my interest in coconut based curries. I just could never use an entire can of coconut milk fast enough before it would spoil. The powder is a great idea. Cheers!

    Thai curries are my go-to backpacking meal
    Water, coconut powder, curry paste, coconut oil packet, PB packets, crushed peanuts, sambal oelek / chili garlic packet, lime, and any array of freeze dried veggie(Mother Earth Products has good stuff) that you like. Nice and light, being vac packed will last longer than I will, and has a ton of flavor considering the lack of fresh ingredients(other than lime, but that doesnt make it on longer trips anyway). Comes in significantly cheaper than anything prepackaged, especially if you go for a keto option.
    Im sure someone familiar with traditional thai curries would be disgusted that I even call it that, but the starving backpackers I feed dont seem to mind it.
    Going to have to give this pad thai a try sometime, subbing some far less satisfying heart of palm noodles
    Would love to see a keto recipe group from you
