Baked Chicken Curry Puff — Karen Puff Op— from Cooking Thai by Pim Techamuanvivit with Andrea Nguyen (Ten Speed Press 2026) A pastry dough of flour, butter and lard is made in the French fraisage technique of shaping, alternating chilling, rolling, and turning several times, and formed into rounds. The filling is chopped chicken, potatoes, green beans, shallots, minced garlic, curry powder, oyster and fish sauces, and palm sugar. The puffs are baked with a coating of egg wash until golden. This recipe is from the new cookbook by the chef of Michelin award-winning Thai restaurants sharing her favorite home dishes.

@chezpim and I did our Cooking Thai book launch event last night with Celia and the @omnivorebooks team! Thanks to all the folks who came and crammed into the shop. ☺️🤗 The shop set us up to speed sign. Not this fast, obviously. 😂😅😂 I got to sign a special Cooking Thai to my pal @kateleahybooks. Honored to have her in attendance. I also signed copies of all my earlier books. Get them from @omnivorebooks while they last! Inscribing my first born, Into the Vietnamese Kitchen, is extra sentimental this year. Published in 2006, the classic is 20 years old this year! Book talk time. Celia got the ball rolling. Standing room only last night. ☺️ @chezpim and I got goofy because we love to show off our Cooking Thai book baby. Yeah, we cooked, fought, compromised and remained friends through it all to make the Thai book we both want and need. We walked folks through the book to make sure they get the most out of it. @chezpim explains why pad gaprao (holy basil) stir-fries are more popular in Thailand than pad Thai. She’s got the survey data! Cook up the fab master Bougie Pad Gaprao with beef on page 233 plus the many variations that follow. @chezpim happily chats about her favorite, most meaningful recipe — Kanom Jeen Nam Prik (page 269), a rice noodle and shrimp-coconut sauce feast. Served with a bunch of fried and raw veggies, it’s a heritage and endangered one dish wonderment. 🙏 @omnivorebooks for hosting a stellar kick off 🚀 for Cooking Thai. Get a signed copy from the shop!

We’re thrilled to introduce Chef Pim Techamuanvivit (@chezpim) to our Powerful Women in Food Gala Lineup this fall, supported by Chef Meghan Clark! Chef Pim set out to bring richer & more diverse Thai cooking to the U.S. - and has since built a Michelin-starred culinary legacy spanning SF and Bangkok, from @kinkhao and @nari_sf to @nahmbangkok. Alongside her throughout that journey has been acclaimed Chef Meghan Clark, a longtime collaborator whom Pim personally called back to San Francisco to helm Kin Khao. Together, they built Nari through years of travel, trust, and a shared vision for what Thai cooking could look like in SF. This spirit of sharing knowledge, opening doors, and creating opportunities for others to rise is at the heart of Sprouts Chef Training. We see it every day through our incredible community of chefs who welcome Sprouts’ youth into their kitchens and inspire thriving futures in food. We can’t wait to have Chefs Pim & Meghan at the table on November 1st. Come savor award-winning & Michelin-starred chef creations and celebrate the next generation of culinary talent with us! Tickets are on sale now - link in bio! Gala presented with support from: @foxtailcatering @skylight @opentable @jpmorganchase @usbank @ggrasf @teakhaus @strausmilk @wearstand @hellopanso @guittardchocolate @greenleafproduceco #thaifood #culinarymentorship #foodforgood #michelinstarchef #sfgala taken in San Francisco Bay Area by @chezpim

We are celebrating my book release day (8/25) with a Cooking Thai dinner at Nari! Sorry I’m a bit late to tell you about it here but there are a few seats left so make sure to grab one if you’d like to celebrate with us. The dinner includes a selection of my favorite dishes from the book, plus a book for you to take home! Follow the link in my profile to make a reservation or just go to Nari on your Resy app and go to August 25th to grab your ticket to this fab dinner. I’ll be there to personally sign the book to you too! And because the book has so many scrumptious vegetarian dishes, there will also be a fully vegetarian set menu offered on that day too. You won’t feel missed out even if you’re not an omnivore! by @chezpim
