Tips for the Best Thai Soup:
- Lemongrass: Bruising the lemongrass stalks helps release their fragrant oils. If you can’t find fresh lemongrass, lemongrass paste is a good substitute.
- Spice Level: Adjust the number of chilies to control the heat. Removing the seeds from the chilies will also reduce the spice.
- Coconut Milk: Full-fat coconut milk will give you the richest and creamiest soup. However, you can use light coconut milk if you prefer.
- Glass Noodles: Don’t overcook the glass noodles, as they can become mushy. Cook them according to the package directions and add them to the soup just before serving.
Frequently Asked Questions:

- Can I make this soup ahead of time? Yes, you can make the soup base ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Add the noodles and shrimp just before serving.
- What side dishes go well with Thai Soup? Steamed rice, spring rolls, or a fresh salad are all great accompaniments.
