Thai Condiment Caddy

The condiment caddy is found in nearly every restaurant in Thailand, and here we have for a reasonable price the finest quality set we could find. Known in Thai as a "Puang Prik", the caddy itself is made of stainless steel. Also stainless steel are the long spoons, perfectly shaped for scooping, and the lids that cover the glasses.

You get four glasses, four lids, four spoons and the caddy itself. The capacity of each glass is 3/4 cup. The caddy is 6 inches tall, from base to the top of the handle (not too big, not too small).

Aside from being a true authentic Thai food required accessory, it might be a fun way to present non-Thai spices, jams, bacon bits, relish, onions, ice cream toppings, candy, or anything else you can think of.

Our Thai condiment caddy, shown above, has four covered glasses each with a long spoon shaped just for the purpose of scooping out whatever's inside.

In Thailand you'll typically find the following in each glass, at every table:

Fish sauce
Sugar
White vinegar with sliced fresh Thai chile
Ground dried chile

Then, alongside those four, a separate small dish with fish sauce and sliced fresh chile.

In American restaurants, the caddy is usually only brought out for diners upon request (for those "in the know") and what's inside is up to the restaurant. At right is the puang prik one of our local restaurants brought us, consisting of ground dried chile, sliced jalapeno in vinegar, sliced Thai chile in fish sauce, and sriracha sauce.
