Chef's Notes
Do not let the coconut milk boil aggressively or it will separate into an oily mess. Keep it at a gentle simmer.
Pro Tip
Bruise your lemongrass stalks with the back of your knife before adding them to release all those hidden essential oils.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Boiling the coconut milk too hard until it curdles and looks like scrambled eggs floating in bathwater.

Royal Court Comedy
Why did the galangal break up with the ginger? It felt the relationship was too rootless.

Flavor Maturation & Emulsion Protection
Storage Science
Cool rapidly in a shallow container before refrigerating. Curries and stews often taste better on day two as aromatic compounds continue to bloom and mingle in the fat matrix. Consume within 4 days.
Reheating Science
Reheat slowly on the stovetop over medium-low heat, stirring gently. If the fat has separated (broken emulsion), add a tablespoon of boiling water and whisk vigorously to re-emulsify before serving.
