Pad Thai with Chopsticks
Pad Thai is one of the most famous and beloved dishes in Thai cuisine. It consists of stir-fried rice noodles cooked in a wok with various ingredients. Key components include: rice noodles (usually flat), a protein source (shrimp, chicken, tofu, or a combination), fresh vegetables (such as bean sprouts, green onions, garlic), egg (usually scrambled into an omelet and then mixed with the noodles), and, of course, the characteristic tangy-sweet sauce based on tamarind, fish sauce, palm sugar, and chili. Traditionally, Pad Thai is served with crushed peanuts, a lime wedge for freshness, and sometimes dried shrimp or chili powder. The dish is eaten using chopsticks, which is a common way to consume Asian cuisine. “Pad Thai on chopsticks” most likely refers to a standard portion of Pad Thai eaten with chopsticks, rather than a separate type of dish
