Pailin “Pai” Chongchitnan’s Hot Thai Kitchen

Yes, one of the
world’s best Thai food blogs is run by an authentic Thai person,
Pailin “Pai” Chongchitnan, but not from sunny Thailand but
rather from the coolness of Canada!

Pai grew up in
Thailand before moving to Vancouver to study nutritional sciences.

After moving to San
Francisco and then moving back to Vancouver, Hot Thai Kitchen was
born.

Pai’s enthusiasm
for her cooking is contagious and you’re going to love the recipes
that she brings to the table.

We recommend her Gaeng Hung Lay which is a Northern Pork Belly Curry from Lanna. It’s awesome.

Mark Wiens’ Eating Thai Food

While other Thai
food bloggers may be based away from Thailand, Mark Wiens lives and
breathes Bangkok.

He also tours
Thailand constantly seeking new ideas and new tastes.

There’s nobody on
earth better acquainted with the way Thailand eats than Mark.

Much of his blog is
about sharing reviews of the fantastic food that he’s encountered
on his travels, but he also features some great recipes.

Check out his authentic Thai Basil Chicken – it’s absolutely fantastic!

Leela Punyaratabandhu’s She Simmers

If you want a
thorough exploration of Thai food, then look no farther than Leela
Punyaratabandhu’s top Thai food blog: She
Simmers.

Leela is widely
considered to be the finest writer involved in the Thai cookery scene
and has won numerous awards of the years for her writing style.

We love the
intelligence, wit and passion that Leela brings to bear on her
subject and we’ve found that her recipes are simply the best.

She’s not just authentic but instead, delves deep under the surface of Thai food to give every dish a new lease of life. Check out her Baked Salmon in Lime-Coconut Cream Sauce for evidence.

Chawadee Nualkhair’s Bangkok Glutton

Chawadee is the author of the best selling “Thailand’s Best Street Food: The Complete Guide to Streetside Dining in Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Phuket and Other Areas” and you can check it out on Amazon here.

She is also the creator of Bangkok Glutton one of our favorite Thai food blogs.

It’s not the
fanciest looking blog you’ve ever seen but her knowledge and
passion for Thai food bring out the best in the country’s cuisine.

Let her explain the joys of Thai street food to you in this excellent article, Back to the Future.

Oh Happy Bear

Considered to be one of the best blogs in Thailand, Oh Happy Bear, focuses on the joy and simplicity of Thai cookery.

You’re going to
find lots of recipes that are easy to make at home – though you may
need to hunt for the ingredients, a little.

Or a lot, if you’re
living in rural Kansas.

We find their take informative and we like the fact that they use a lot of video content; it means that it’s so easy to follow along. Check out their take on Kanom Tom here and see for yourself.

Thai Food Master

Thai Food Master is
so authentic that they provide their blog content in both English and
Thai.

That’s a huge
amount of work and respect to Hanuman the founder of the blog who has
been permanently based in the country since 1989.

Thapakorn
Lertviriyavit is the head chef and chief researcher for their
recipes team and the work he puts in is amazing.

Check out this Goong Saawn Glin a Thai Royal Appetizer and see what Thai food can be like at its finest. You won’t be disappointed.

Austin Bush’s Austin Bush Photography

Austin Bush is,
first and foremost, a photographer.

But he’s a
photographer who can also write and one who is completely obsessed
with the food of Thailand and, more specifically, the food of
Northern Thailand.

In fact, he was a
James Beard finalist with his book
“The Food of Northern Thailand” which you can find on Amazon
here.

His approach to Thai food is refreshingly simple and he brings a unique look to things as you can see in his piece on Sukkii Rot Kraba.

Sherri Pengjad’s Thai Foodie

Sherri’s blog is
literally one of love.

She’s from North
Carolina but she visited Thailand when she was younger and came home
with something special – a husband!

Yes, her husband is
Thai, and her blog was borne out of her love for her husband and for
cooking his native cuisine for him.

They’re back in the US now but Sherri’s still talking about Thai food and we really like her recipes and her photography. Check out her Thai Fried Rice Omelette and see for yourself.

Rachel Cooks Thai

It’s been a little
while since Rachel updated her blog and we’re hoping that she’ll
be back soon because we love her twist on the culinary culture of
Thailand.

Rachel is married to
a Thai gentleman and since they met in 2002, she’s been trying to
win his heart through cooking.

They were married in
2014 and had an amazing Thai buffet and she’s been sharing her
passion for the food online ever since.

Check out her recipe for Pad Woonsen, Glass Noodle Stir Fry and see how good she is!

Pranee’s Thai Kitchen

Pranee Khruasanit
Halvorsen is the writer and owner of Pranee’s Thai Kitchen.

She’s very much
Thai but she’s based in Seattle rather than Bangok and she started
blogging to get the word out about her Thai cookery school there
which teaches over 1,000 students a year!

She acknowledges
that her English isn’t perfect, but we think that adds to her
charm, to be honest.

We think you ought to get to grips with her Nam Pla Prik, Spicy Fish Sauce, to make every Thai meal that you cook as authentic as possible.
