      You guys should do a series of an ingredient used in different cuisines...like tamarind in Thai and Indian cuisine. It would also explore what different techniques do to same ingredient as well as different combinations. I love this idea of mine.

    I’m a Thai person abroad and this ep just showed me the most authentic dishes that’s hard to find and make outside of Thailand. I’m crying. i love the omelette. We also use this omelette in a spicy curry soup called ‘Gang Som Khai Ch-Om’. Next time you can ask the chef to prepare you all kinds of ‘Gang Som’. it’s amazing dish you can put different ingredients in that. My favorite one is Gang Som with green papaya and shrimp.

    Rice whiskey is not whiskey in the traditional sense but distilled white spirit made from rice that is 35-40 degrees. It is also the inspiration for Japanese awamori, and some brands still import rice from Thailand to make awamori to this day.
    April honey's name in Thai translates to 5th month honey (น้ำผึ้งเดือนห้า); the 5th month in the Thai lunar calendar falls aproximately in April. The reason it's the best is that it is the last month before monsoon so the weather is hot and dry, and honey tends to become sticker.

    Whenever I mention having spent a lot of time in Thailand, people usually comment about how much they love Thai food. What most people don't realise is that, like other cuisines (Indian, Chinese etc), British restaurant Thai food is little to nothing like what you would have at home in Thailand and the major component that is never really translated is just how spicy the food can get. It's on another level and after a few months of being there, eating breakfast with namprik pao you can get used to it but it's not something we're used to, outside of the Friday night curry where someone tries to order the hottest thing on the menu. The sourness of a lot of food isn't usually in Thai/British cuisine either. I definitely miss sticky rice though! :D

  • @tai2691997
    @tai2691997 Рік тому +61

    Hi, as a Thai I figured I'll give some more tidbits about ingredients in the video. The tamarind is usually use for a 'more gentle/mellow' source of acid/sourness, as opposed to lime (for example) which is a more direct/strong source of acid. Like palm sugar, which is also used as a more gentle sugar than white sugar. Tamarind and palm sugar is less processed therefore retain more delicate/nuanced flavours therefore it'll taste less harsh than its refined counterparts.
    People also eat cha-om raw with nam prik (other vegetables are available), it's a traditional meal here. Nam prik is way too strong on its own, so you need vegetables which are full of water to compensate. Also a way to eat more vegetables, we also have a ton more varieties of nam prik. I like lons (หลน) a lot, it's a less spicy dip that has coconut milk in it, usually has seafood in it (crab or shrimp), it's what I eat with vegetables as a child when I can't handle real nam priks yet lol.
    I'd wager most Southern food that real Southern people eats are way too spicy/hot for the average Thais (me included). The popular menus are kua gling (คั่วกลิ้ง) and gaeng leoung (แกงเหลือง). I remembered having it at a local spot in Phuket once, they have bucketloads of sliced cucumbers to fight the heat, it failed. And many Southern people talk shit about other regions all the time that their foods are so mild or bland, their chilies ain't got nothing on Southern chilies. They're right
    Now, that 'moonshine' thingy. I'd never considered drinking it because the herb names sounds so sketch (in Thai). Most of the names are just some variation of 'it'll make you so horny' like 'forever-erect' (โด่ไม่รู้ล้ม), 'power of the tiger' (กำลังเสือโคร่ง), 'stomping/raging stallion' (ม้ากระทืบโรง), 'reborn elder' (ไอ้เฒ่าคืนชีพ), etc. Now, apparently it's traditional Thai medicine, and that particular arm of the Ministry of Public Health supports it in moderation (it infused 40% ABV drink after all). I'll wait for somebody else to try it before me.....

      but shrimp paste dipping you need only garlic and chili as spice
      +sweet,sour and salty thing
      But because it so simple it also eazy to ruin
      other spicy dip in Thai use roasted thing or lot of spice for smell
      but this you need shrimp paste and garlic you need to balance those two
      if garlic too much overwhelming shrimp you fuck up but if garlic is not
      strong enough to stop fishy smell of shrimp you also fuck up
      you don’t have any mint or roasted chili or onions or Chinese spice to buffering it

Thank you to the team! I especially love Cha-om omelet myself and I hope more people get to try these dishes. Also there are many moreeeeeeee dishes for you guys to try.

    Just a little fun fact: Ya Dong come in varieties of type and what Thai people believes it would help with. (But mainly it focuses on men’s health) And the name of each varieties is super creative but so hard to Translate and get the same meaning in English 😂.

    I'm Thai. I think Thailand has many unique things. I watched this entire vdo clip. It was really fun. Starting with the tamarind, I was wowed. This makes me think and want to share a little more about tamarind in Thailand that there are two types and two flavors: sour and sweet. People usually only know sour. But in Thailand, nature has given tamarind that has a sweet taste that can be eaten like any other fruit. I believe that if anyone tries to eat it, We guarantee that you will definitely be impressed by its taste and deliciousness. I think it's probably only available in Thailand. The rest I have never heard of. But if there is any, please share it with me.

    In the Philippines, we call that fermented fish gut as "PATIS LABO" and the fish sauce as "PATIS".
    How similar are they? They are technically from the same batch of fermented fish.
    The exacted fish essence that floats on the top is the Fish Sauce or Patis.
    The ones with the solids, goes at the bottom, which is the fermented fish guts or "Patis Labo"
    How do we use fermented fish guts? we usually use it to make side dishes. We mix it with sliced tomatoes and if in season, unripe green mangoes.
