35. “มะระผัดไข่” (ma-ra-pad-kai). Winter melons cooked with eggs. There are way that could help reduce the bitterness of winter melons if you cook it properly. For this dish, my family’s recipe is to add pork and cellophane noodles in it too. #FoodOfMastodon #FoodReview #ThailandFood

34. “หมูสะเต๊ะ” (moo-sa-tay). Skewered grilled pork that’s marinated with turmeric powder, curry powder, other aromatic herbs, and coconut milk. This is eaten with a peanut sauce and acar. Acar is vegetables, usually cucumbers, shallots, and chili, pickled in vinegar and sugar. #FoodOfMastodon #FoodReview #ThailandFood

33. “ขนมจีนนํ้ายา” (ka-nom-jeen-nam-ya). A type of rice noodle (kanomjeen) that’s eaten with stock and raw vegetables like bean sprouts or yardlong beans as condiments. There are many variations of stock for kanomjeen. This stock is fish curry that has various herbs such as lemongrass, fingerroot, shallots as well as dry chili. #FoodOfMastodon #FoodReview #ThailandFood

32. “หมกหน่อไม้” (mok-nor-mai). Shredded bamboo shoots mixed with fish sauce, fermented fish sauce, pork belly, chilies, and lemon basils. These are wrapped in pandan leaves and then steamed. It’s a less popularized dish of Isaan cuisine. #FoodOfMastodon #FoodReview #ThailandFood

31. “คอหมูย่างจิ้มแจ่ว” (kor-moo-yang-jim-jaew). Grilled marinated pork shoulder with “jaew” sauce. Jaew sauce has many variations, but common ingredients are tamarind sauce, fish sauce, roasted ground rice, culantros, and crushed dried chili peppers. #FoodOfMastodon #FoodReview #ThailandFood

30. “ส้มตำ” (som-tam) aka papaya salad. Another traditional Isaan dish w/ shredded unripe papaya as a main component. This dish has many variants. The left pic is Somtam Thai that tastes sweet and a bit sour. The right pic is Somtam Lao that uses fermented fish sauce, so it tastes more savory. Both of them are spicy. #FoodOfMastodon #FoodReview #ThailandFood

Getting back to food now. A short series of Isaan (northeastern Thai) food:

29. “ลาบหมู” (larb-moo) aka pork salad. Cooked ground pork with aromatic vegetables and crushed roasted rice, and seasoned with fish sauce. There’s varying level of spiciness one can make. Some have pork skins and offals. Most Isaan food is eaten with sticky rice including this one. #FoodOfMastodon #FoodReview #ThailandFood

28. “ข้าวเหนียวมะม่วง” (kao-neow-ma-muang) aka sticky rice with mangoes. This thread will be incomplete without this canonical Thai dessert. The sticky rice is cooked with coconut milk and sugar. Mangoes have to be the breeds that have enough sweetness to stand up to it. You can pour more coconut milk over it when eating. #FoodOfMastodon #FoodReview #ThailandFood #ThailandDessert

27. “ฮันนี่โทสต์” (Honey toast). A Japanese-origin dessert that’s become hugely popular in Thailand. It’s a toasted cube of bread that’s brushed with a mix of butter and honey. It’s topped with ice cream and served with whipped cream. You then pour honey over it before eating. #foodofmastodon #FoodReview #ThailandFood #ThailandDessert

26. “โรตี” (ro-ti). You’ve probably seen this term referring to an Indian flatbread before. But it is referred to a different kind in Thailand (maida paratha src: Wikipedia). It’s a crispy fried flatbread and served as dessert. Many also add eggs or bananas as ingredients. Common toppings are sugar and concentrated milk. #Food #FoodReview #ThailandFood #ThailandDessert

25. “ขนมดอกบัว” (ka-nom-dog-bua). Another simple traditional Thai dessert/snack. A mix of different flour (AP and rice) that incorporates pandan leaf water and fried. It tastes… very addictive 😂

Commonly found at a street market. #Food #FoodReview #ThailandFood #ThailandSnack

24. “นํ้าเต้าหู้” (nam-tao-hoo) that means “tofu milk” aka soy milk. It’s a traditional drink in Thailand. It’s usually sweetened and eaten with patongo (above toot). Sometimes, other ingredients are added including Adley, jelly, sago (or sagu) pearl, and other types of grains. #Food #FoodReview #ThailandFood #ThailandSnack

23. “ปาท่องโก๋” (pa-tong-go). Some call it Chinese doughnuts. It’s a pair of bread dough tied together into a shape similar to chromosome and fried. Commonly dipped into concentrated milk or pandan leaf custard. Can also be eaten with hot drinks like coffee or hot chocolate. #Food #FoodReview #ThailandFood

22. “ขนมถ้วย” (ka-nom-tuay). Another traditional Thai dessert/snack. It has a tiny bowl shape (tuay) with two layers. The bottom layer is a mix of rice flour and pandan leaf water while top layer is made of coconut milk.

21. “บัวลอยงาดําชาเขียว” (bua-loy-nga-dum-cha-keow). This is a fusion between bualoy and sweet milk green tea. Big bualoy balls also have black sesame (nga-dum) fillings. This dessert is more niche but the recombination of food/sweet is very common here. #Food #FoodReview #ThailandFood #ThailandDessert

20. “บัวลอยไข่หวาน” (bua-loy-kai-waan). Bualoy is a traditional Thai dessert that consists of glutinous rice flour rolled into small balls mixed with food coloring (can be natural color derived from plants) and cooked in coconut milk and sugar. Eggs can be added and that’s what “kai-waan” refers to. If salted eggs are used, then it’ll be “kai-kem”. #Food #FoodReview #ThailandFood #ThailandDessert

19. “ช็อคโกแลตเย็น” (chocolate-yen) aka iced chocolate. Sweet beverages are VERY common here. We might have as many sweet beverage stores (imagine boba place) as restaurants. Coffee shops also sell sweet drinks, and black coffee is sometimes sweetened by default 😂

One perplexing thing in the US is iced chocolate is not common. Hot chocolate will be on the menu, but when I order an iced chocolate, they will look stunned. Unless it’s a boba shop, they suck at sweet drinks. #FoodReview #ThailandFood

18. “ชาไทยเย็น” (cha-thai-yen) aka Thai tea. Thai tea is originally made from Ceylon tea, but they’re pricey so people also use landrace Assam as the tea base and mix in food coloring. Concentrated milk is the common sweetener. “yen” means it’s an iced version because it can be hot or ice-blended too.

This will begin a subthread on sweet scene in Thailand because this is an interesting subculture here contrasting to the US.
