THAI FOOD Papaya Salad (som dum)

[iknowmeisme]

what was she doing at 2.05 ? picking up falling shredded papaya and putting it into the bowl??

[annashielao1]

@iknowmeisme Hahahaha I find this so funny style in making papaya salad.

[ahmadruangprat]

it very dirty

[JennyogKelly]

@ahmadruangprat youre very dirty

[annashielao1]

@JennyogKelly No gloves on ewwwwww

[marisajm1]

ป้ามั่วมาก

[Kiriisking]

Lol all the thai people here are all going wtf

[Ahkany]

laotians. oh vietnamese? uh no.

CAMBODIANS.

[ElektroFck]

ตำอะไรของมันวะ

[ElektroFck]

@truknayr23 You are a stupid idiot. English is not my language, too. But I can do it better. Go to hell mother*ucker :)

[Kleinendecline]

@ElektroFck Your English sucks more than his lolololol

[truknayr23]

I agree that this is not the way we normally see it here in Thailand... but hey... maybe it is not her specialty... i have seen her make the KhaoPhat Gai..... and it was all good! so yeah... cheers!

[ooo1lll1]

F****  what are u doing with this ? I think u go learn more thai cooking better then come to show .... This very bad look and I think test is like #@*^$#@ ... :(

[watchonetwo]

0:23 at asian stooorrre!!

[QueenxLaLa]

her mom's accent is AWESOME! lol



[gunnerasid]

well, her accent sounds like Thai though.

[just2luvely]

What a misrepresentation of tum som!! Absolutely horrifying! And just to clarify those who are not in the know, papaya salad originated from Laos and the only reason why you see it eaten in Thailand is because people of Northeastern Thailand is part Lao - they eat Lao food, speak Lao, and follow Lao traditions. And I agree with most of the comments here, if you want to taste this wonderful dish, DO NOT follow this recipe. This is all sorts of wrong!

[gagragosmeltal6816]

เห้ยเป็นปะเนี้ย

[ticketybooize]

กินไม่ได้แน่ๆ

[TheMadboy786]

Bangladeshi people eat it to.

[thaiteenagers]

มันคือตำอะไรอ่ะ

ไม่ใส่ปู กุ้งแห้ง ถั่ว ด้วย

5555+

[MademoiselleKami]

Omg this is NOT Som tam! And your english is so fuckin bad. 

[truknayr23]

@MademoiselleKami hahaha.... she is not a native English speaker you idiot... what would you expect.

[keeherful]

Missing alot of thing... Sorry but it the fact

[tookkeaw]

If you will teach foriengers to do somtum do not open it to teach them becasue this is not somtum and this is not Thai food

[ChayakornU]

OMG!!!

What are you doing!!!

It isn't Som Dum!!!

[Byrd0Apirat]

i'm thai and i can tell that it's not a real SomDum it's just a copy cat. if you want to taste the real one, don't do after her.

it's like you cook pizza with a corn starch or sushi with a sticky rice.

what a shame.

มันไม่ใช่ส้มตำ มันเป็นแค่เลียนแบบ แล้วมิทราบว่ามะละกอน่ะ ไม่ล้างก่อนหรือไง ? ปอกเสร็จก็ต้องล้างสิครับ ยางกัดปากหมด

มะละกอเค้าก็ใส่ทีหลังนะ ตำเครื่องก่อนแล้วค่อยใส่มะละกอ

เข้าใจว่าอยากขายความเป็นไทย แต่ถ้ารู้ไม่จริงก็อย่าทำจะดีกว­่า เพราะมันน่าอาย

[thenipol]

this not som dum lol

[ayumireborn]

ป้าขา มันต้องใส้เส้นมะละกอทีหลังค่ะ แล้วใส่ซะเยอะเลย กลัวฝรั่งมันไม่อิ่มเหรอคะ

[zero52one]

can you not talk so much.. its annoying..

[mikimotopat]

ก็น่ากินดีนะ พอทำเสร็จ

[MickiTuk]

I have shared your videos with many people now, who have all commented back about how helpful they were to see. I miss Thailand so much, but the food makes me feel closer to that beautiful land. Thank you :)

[numnim101]

โอ้ ใส่เส้นมะละกอเยอะมาก จะตำยังไงเนี่ย

[xkimberlyxx1]

yummm!!!

[1234adamm]

It's no SOMTAM OMG!

[sweetiemarron]

I love Somtam especially Somtam poo-prarah and somtam Thai....I can eat those everyday ;) but in Thai's style not american's style...oh and U guys have to try Tam Mamueng (Mango Somtam) the best dish ever!I recommend! So proud to be Thai...I can eat good food everyday of my life ;)

[lowgradelowgrade]

[hmooblee19]

[finnaja]

[0561268824]

[PuffArashi]

she mess it up. that cook look like disaster. so sad.

[Jungsinsang]

very disgusting,,, som-tum is not cook this way. you better delete this video that make people mis understood.  watch other video which is more close to what we cook Som-Tum.

[natthanuch]

[mhalaonggor]

OMG !!!!! Not Thai's style........

[sunantsu]

Wrong

[consolemaster]

I'm surprised she didn't say Cambodia.

[teeradon11]

นังบ้า ตำมะละกอใครบ้าตำแบบนั้น

[wanlopph]

@teeradon11 I agree with you . 555+

[Kiriisking]

@teeradon11 lol

[namtarnnn]

its not!!!



[aomenz]

If green papaya is called the "Som Tum"

If using cucumber, also known as "Tum Tang"

If using sour green mango called "Tum Mamoung"

It can also be used.

gooseberry, green bananas, santol. :)))

[egeefay]

@pannipa01

The entire table IS a chopping block from "Boos". It's an expensive item.

[JustaSnake74]

Accidently used red papaya...... not a good outcome ol. I have never eaten this dish. I want to try it so bad. WIll be getting GREEn papaya next time as I have all ingred aside from palm sugar. I cannot find that ANYwhere here in Maine. Will have to order inline.

[egeefay]

@JustaSnake74

If you can't find palm surgar you can use brown sugar or granulated white sugar.

[OnKneesforJesus3]

I much prefer the Thai version over the Vietnamese one. The Viet one is too simple although it does use a unique sauce.

[LIkAStar90]

i always use thai peppers...so i do use the right chiles....!!!

[egeefay]

@LIkAStar90

Yes

[KoadPauLaoDang]

som tum or tum mak houng is Lao people fav food, we eat with a sticky rice.

[LIkAStar90]

she said "fist sauce"....lol

[LIkAStar90]

that look so plain.....

[leaper1950]

@LIkAStar90  Plain yeah? Try it with the right chillis - it will blow your head off!

[LIkAStar90]

stupid not just Lao, Vietnamese and Thai people eat papaya salad...every Asian cultural people eat papaya salad....even white and african american people that i know eat it too.....

[fistoffury9300]

thank you for teaching me how to make this, I love Thai green papaya salad!

[wingwaabuddha]

Expect alot more views soon because of the movie about this lol

[MotortekCPMedia]

@angelaxaiyaosa Well fyi you do use a mortar and who cares about the size also I see Thai people make food everyday and they use their hands more than anything.

[209yangyang]

lol



[thtNICOLE]

omg, i miss the taste, i can't wait to go back to thailand :O

[cdleelam]

@muikung I agree

[cassey05]

we eat green papaya here in philippines, and we make pickled papaya..so love it!

[MILKMINI]

นำ้มะขาม ไม่มี ก็ไม่อร่อยสิค๊ะ มันขาดหลายอย่าเลย

[crazywomancreek]

what happened to the dried shrimp?

[egeefay]

@crazywomancreek

Dried shrimp is not easy to find in the west. Also a lot of westerners object to the smell.

So I modified the recipe a bit so that westerners can enjoy it.

[mechavoom]

rutabaga is a good substitute for green papaya. those seem to be more readily available in your grocery stores.

[nissamilano]

Your mom is so cute lol "My chilli pepper from the garden is sooo spicy" lol

[PraPHunk]

I tried this, but didn't have access to green papaya. So I used radishes. It was a decent substitute. I through in chunks of cooked papaya, and got the tangy taste with lime.

Again not ideal, but I love this recipe.

Love from India.

[egeefay]

@PraPHunk

Try this with firm green mango. If your green mango is sour you don't have to add lime juice

[rsourn09]

Thanks you for sharing i learn alot from you and your mom receipe.

[luvrainn]

wow everyones comment is from 1 year ago haha

anyways its almost 2011 its decemeber 11th right now haha.

i just ate papaya salad

my lips are burning and tounge.

[clubsode]

u can use carrot instead

[rage88088]

i see you don't use dried shrimps and peanuts, is that an optional thing or according to the provinces one is from ?

[egeefay]

@rage88088

Yes. a lot of westerners don't like dried shrimp but they like som tum

[FloridaRaider]

I saw this on TV. I'd really like to try it. Too bad there is no Thai restaurants around me. --living out in the country.

[Naren789]

i love papaya salad, thai don't always talk about cambodian people we don't get along but honestly the way we cook so much the same...nothing really different my bff from thailand and we really have a good friendship...

[Oneinthenow]

You two are quite cute...thanks for sharing your reciepe.

[zoneadrenaline]

besides the great food; you are so beautiful Cathy; l think thai food is the best.

[cascadejacques]

This looks absolutely delicious. A fine accompaniament to any grilled meat dish.

[51313932]

This is not the orininal of Thai Som Tam

[pix00l]

@muikung This is just another style of how to make it I guess

[arose4lee]

Green papaya is difficult to find in Adelaide, South Australia. My mother makes this salad with carrots. I must find her one of those shredder devices. She uses a knife to chop the surface and then a normal peeler to peel it into uneven strips. YUM.

[eldruidacosmico]

We also eat green papaya in Costa Rica and Nicaragua, it's called Picadillo de Papaya, :) that's the beauty of having the same ingredients but with a completely different culture. I tryed that salad once and it's great!!

[gammieshouse]

love it! Love it ! Love it

[Factory888]

Why not with pasta^^ Try it^^ it so delicious^^

[khaotic0n3]

I really miss Lao food. I tried to make tum mak thang (I know, try to spell in English is weird) but it's rather hard to find papaya here in Florida so I use cucumbers instead. The problem is finding padaek is impossible and even shrimp paste is hard to find. So of course, it never turns out right without that last ingredient. If I still lived in Maryland it'd be easier to get them.

[lhrlyc]

SOM TAM not SOM DUM surely?

[egeefay]

@lhrlyc

Ask your English speaking friends to pronounce each version and then decide which sounds closest to Thai words

[greenemoon]

@lhrlyc ...som tam..

[xkimberlyxx1]

@lhrlyc lol i thought it was som tam thts how i say it i dnt say som dum 

[ChiomaxD]

I just love this show! I just tried this salad at home yesterday! It was yummy! It tastes somehow spicy, salty, sour and sweet all at once! It was just a blending wecation for the taste buggs, including the little crunchyness! I served it as a side dish with wermicelli and spicy chicken. Serioucly!, It is worth trying!

Keep it up, ya'll!, and 5 stars!

- ChiomaxD

[jinsbae]

Wow, I need to get that vegetable shredder, this Thai salad is the most freshest and healthiest salad I ever know, I like to pit out the pulp in the tomatoes and add small dried shrimps to it.

[patrickchanning]

aroi mak

[RaidenXyooj]

:D I ate papaya salad everyday, never get old.

[integra0guy]

i love papaya salad

[Oo2k7]

I love papya salad. Is freaking spicy though. I like to eat it with crabs.

[Jesusismylife123]

these people are so gifted and I really appreciate all the information about their cooking style.  Thanks so much

[tobewar]

make lop

[tOobEtHeOnE]

i usually put in all the papaya paste first b4 adding the papaya...then just mix and eat!=)

[nkaujhmoobvwj]

her version is the thai version... the laos version is with padej=rottenfish/shrimp or crab paste & tamarind....

the thai version is less fishy and with just lime juice.... i had it where they add full shrimp or shredded chicken breast... they were very good.

i also love my version... with cooked tamarind sauce & cooked tiny crab... i like mine sweet, sour and medium spicy.

[sakanax]

i like papaya salad with or without crab paste but papaya salad with shrimp paste crab paste is the best my mom has the best crab paste sauce ever!!

[stylesone209]

heyy she forgot cambodians...lol we eat papaya tooo...mmm papaya is helka delicious!

[KayKrazie]

i have the same shredder............

[azngstyle]

I love you're cooking and you both are awesome.

I miss Thailand.

[tylertyler82]

i could live off of this stuff. the thai place on 19th and Castro streets makes exquisite papaya salad.

[richkid89]

i use cucumber instead of papaya sometimes, pretty good with white noodles too!

[allnightdrinker]

Yeah that's called dam deng it fundamentaly the same salad dish but with a different main ingredient. You can use runner bean too, dam touwa. Sorry don't mean to patronising.

[hotelhotel111]

Lately I'm making papaya salad with carrots. I can not buy green papaya here in Italy. Try it once, it's delicious as well.

[rostant999]

@richkid89 yeh me too i dont like green papaya but with cucumber it is great!

isn't it called som tam?

[egeefay]

@richkid89

Actually Thai food is very versatile. Good for you

[ilovenoy]

this is more of the american style. if you go to an asian restaurant in the US, that's how they make it. because its catered to the americanized asians. if you go to southeast asia, the main ingredient is bla rah or badack. its a must! anyways, instead of papaya, try using green mangoes. its so yummy. also if you use papaya, you can also add tamarind in it.

[karateporkchop]

maan badack in my tham mak houng makes it BOMB! This and some steak...beer.. got yourself a set night

[phadil]

the green mango one is called kerabu if i'm not mistaken. it's quite popular in Northern Malaysia. i usually dip it in a budu (fermented fish sauce).

[icommand]

@ilovenoy that is Yum Mamooang ..tastes different...also I like the somtam with fresh black crab som tam poo..

[sigurd2401]

Isn't this Isaan food, I love it but with crab in it and much more chili- I am a Norwegian and I tasted it for the first time on hollyday in Thailand-ate it everyday-Just love Thai food

[MZ48hrs]

@sigurd2401, no it is not only Isaan. We can put either crab or roast dry penuts. they r both delicious. When using crab, they call papaya salad Lao, when using penuts they call papaya salad Thai. But it is only a name because both style are Thai food.

[pix00l]

@sigurd2401 There're 2 version, 1 Isaan 1 Thai.

Thai version is sweet

[unforgettablelove85]

omg..this papaya salad is so ugly...she did a very terrible job on it...i sure wouldn't want to try it...

[sengvanglee]

@unforgettablelove85: it really depends on your own taste. some people like their papaya salad to be very light color (meaning not much flavor) and some people like there's really dark where it has more crab paste to it. I've seen some papaya actually lighter then this and it actually doesn't taste so bad.

[2009Chutima]

It's great! I like papaya salad (som-tum).

[jajakJAKja]

the woman whom is cooking is the girl's mum

[1gartner]

I've been told I make killer papaya salad. I volunteer during the thai new year celebration at the temple, and the line was by far long. All proceeds goes to the temple.

[NayPerez]

This looks really yummy! usually most asians uses shrimp paste and crab sauce that makes it really stinky. But this is simple and delicious. And I'm Asian sooo this is perfect for me. Thank you for posting this up =)

[XxX7cutiepie7XxX]

im lao and this is mt favorite dish its ooo good!

[KOSvenningsen]

where is the pickled gurami fish (barlar) or the crab?? wannabe papaya salad

[azngstyle]

what about BaDek?

[akalholic]

man i shall tell my mom to make it tomorrow...all this is making me crave it.....YUMMMMMMMMMMY!!!

[unepomme19]

You can't put shredded papayas before the palm sugar paste, that makes you unable to smash the sugar.

by the way, she put too much papayas in, and obviously cannot smash it well

[thealphagirl]

Just how I learned to make it! if you don't want to use papaya you can use glass noodles but the papaya tastes better!

[615559]

tum maghung.....ummmm yummy

[KhmerChic26]

omg i love papaya salad. cambodian calls it "bok la hong" im not sure of the spelling but who cares i love the taste. =P

[vimkevhlub]

is the lady in the blue Thai???

[jizzoi]

AND HMONG PPLE!!!!!!

[juneshop]

In Thailand we usually use a bigger mortar than this one to make Som Tum. The mortar she used is for making chilli paste.

[ninja3173]

I love eating that with sticky rice! <3

The tomato is so yummy, spicy and sour dish!

So spicy, yet so creative !

[Freekickgundam]

slice by knife is more delicious than use slice tool. must try

[Pechsiree]

omb it's almost 1 am, and i really want som tum!!!

[moniikku]

Papaya salad is my favorite food :D! Making my mouth water watching XD;; Haha..

[sandyking1]

คิดฮอด ไทยแลนด์ จ้งเลย

[lilSnubby]

Som Tam is an art. A good Som Tam maker would NEVER use those shredders, you have to hack it with a knife to get the proper texture. This is seriously hard to make correctly. The texture of the papaya and the balance of the sauce is the key. Once you learned to know the right taste, I always search out a great Som Tam and when I find it I order two - phet mak

[num5th]

เห้ยใส่พริก 2 เม็ดเองหรอ ใส่มะกอซะเหมือนจะยำวุ้นเส้นเลย อย่างฮ่าอะ  ตกลงคนสาธิตมันตำเป็ฯป่าววะ

[09isThAyeAr]

i love papaya....IM BEST AT MAKING IT IN MY FAMILY! i love mines SUPER spicy........LOL

[kusya30]

i like my dark, a lil bit sweet and salty with 6 red chilly pepper

[wyrmbuster]

this is also a cambodian dish. We eat it with beef on a stick and rice.

[kikibabex3]

she missed the crab and dried shrimp

[Ka0xSaEPHaN]

i love thum som lol

[charlenoi]

its pretty good

[lovablesamie]

luvv papaya!!

[1900sextasy]

doo ma mi`

[AFAlex]

Hey I tried making this salad without the mortar , mix it with you hadns is not a good idea. the peppers and the fish sauce stings your finger. Your hand will not smell too well either. I suggest buying a Mortar. not making it any other way. Very good Salad though.

[silentkhmerkid]

that is also a Cambodian side dish. soo good.

[48082531]

Note. Thailand have various kinds of papaya salad.

Tam Thai (Thai style) will put roast peanuts within.

Tam Puu (Each Thai style) will put preserved crabs with salt within.

Tam Pra Raa (Thai Isan style - Northeast of Thailand or Laos style) will put Pra Raa (pickled fish) within.

[babygurlthao]

Hmong people eats papaya salad, too but we put in more ingrediants.

I love papaya salad. If its not spicy its not good.

[babygurlthao]

Hmong prople eats it too.

[xpo239]

wack. missing Badack.

[anac0nda]

Papaya is good when it gose in but it's bad when it comes out :)

[cburnerz]

Easily one of the most delicious and spiciest dishes you can eat on this planet. My mouth just waters every time I think about it.

[asianr0se]

Excellent teamate , Daugther almost as beautiful as mom , Yummy dish , I will have for dinner tonight .

[asianr0se]

Excellent teammate , Daugther almost as beautiful as mom , Easy to understand , Well described by daugther , Yummy dish , This is what I will have for dinner tonight , Thank so much for posting this great video .

[Wintermist13]

I AM Laotian. and that is one of my favourite dishes ever!!!

[piperpiper]

I love raw crab salad. Is that the same papaya salad recipe that is in raw crab salad? If not, can you please make raw crab salad in your show. thank you.

[JEWELENE87]

most southern countries eat green papaya.

[mar7dong]

thnk you for shareng.

[anthuhhknee]

love papaya salad, us mien people call it "thome soume"

[wsupninja90210]

cambodian eat it too, its called bok l'hong.

[Vato535]

Looks good! I'll skip on the peanuts and the sugar though and will definitely turn the heat WAY up!! HOLLA

[cambridge0809]

this food is so exotic. the taste is so strong! but it was done here a little different from the local way Thai people do it in Thailand. They put crabs sometimes, fresh crabs. Imagine the taste!

[getmoreinfo2009]

You two make it look do-able & your mom has calming effect on those who are afraid to enter the kitchen! I got started - am very impressed with my results if I do say so myself! Thank you

[jackson842]

Nothing says Bangkok more to me than Papaya Salad, thanks for posting this....

[phana21]

Cambodians eat green papaya also! my family in particular like our papaya salad very spicy with lots of lime juice.

[dentalstudentmommy]

i loooooooooooooooooooooooooove papaya salad! the spicier, the better! =]
