All of them I look forward to. People talk a lot about regional Thai foodways, but I've also heard about upper & lower Lao regional foodways & am dubious on a claim that stuff is similar all across the country, but what are some regional Lao foods that you know of?
There are so many regional Lao foods! In the northern region of Laos called Xieng Khouang, you’ll find unique dishes like fermented small birds and a distinct variety of small sticky rice grains. The norther is also popular with the use of prickly ash peppers. Luang Prabang offers its own signature dishes, such as jeow bong (a chili paste) and its special take on papaya salad. In the south, the focus is on incredibly fresh fish and the famous fermented fish sauce, padaek.
Thank you very much for those recipes!! They also sound and look so tasty! One question regarding the 1st: Would the chicken be fully cooked as well with a simpler rice cooker (that only has one cooking/keep warm button)?
That’s a good question. I haven’t tried with a simpler rice cooker but I feel like it should. Would highly recommend always using a food thermometer to be extra sure
Interesting take on Hainanese Chicken Rice. The Thai version, called “Khao Man Gai,” (and made a Thai staple by Thai Hainanese) has a few extra steps - namely stir-frying the uncooked rice with chicken fat, garlic and ginger. Then the rice is cooked in the stock used to poach the chicken. The khao man gai sauce is actually specific to the Thai-Hainanese version and is actually referred to “sauce khao man gai,” it uses Thai chilies, garlic, ginger, Chinese fermented soy beans, dark and sweet soy sauce, distilled vinegar, salt, sugar, and a twist of lime juice to marry the flavors. The dish is served with a side of clear soup (tom jeud) made with the same stock used to poach the chicken too. Khao man gai has become a staple of Thai street food and usually sold by Thai-Hainanese families across Thailand. I’d love to share it with you! There are some great khao man gai restaurants in States too, specifically in LA!

Taiwanese sticky rice 🤤
So good!
do you have to soak the stick rice?
No soaking needed
Looks sap sap!
Thanks so much!
Any substitute for pandan leaves? I live in Florida which is Asian grocery desert.
I use springonion If I can't get pandan
you can use lemongrass. Are you able to find that in your area?
@@SaengsKitchen Yes, that is easily obtained. So slap them with the back of the knife and throw it into the rice?
@@SaengsKitchen yes I do. Thank you!!

Did you say the rice cooker took 63 minutes ?!
Yes the rice cooker automatically decides how long it needs to cook depending on the weight of the rice and food in it
