I use Prawn and rice to make sour prawn. It works perfectly. When ready, you put slice white onion, coriander, green chilies, chilies powder (if you like), tiny bit sesame oil and peanut oil and make a salad. Serve with hot steam rice and a cup of herbal tea. Yum. Lobo (Nam) the best.
Why does it turn brown after putting the powder in? Does anyone know? How do you keep it red without turning brown? And sometimes when I make it, the taste is too strong....why? icky taste sometimes....is it due to too much powder or not enough?
nam is soooo good...i love making khao tod salads with it and eating it wrapped up in lettuce leaves! My favorite way of eating nam is just warming it up in the microwave and eating it with khao neeow lol
I love this, it is a traditional Vietnamese food too, called Nem Chua. It is sold everywhere in VN. The pork skin is cooked but the meat is raw. If u dun have a good stomach then don't eat it!

It's not spoiled, it's fermented. There aren't molds growing in the meat due to the nitrates and salt in the powder.

Spoiled foods don't really agree with my stomach :(

Are we supposed to let it ferment in the fridge or room temperature? I've heard conflicting things from people who make it.

the vietnamese version is called nem. nam=nem. The vietnamese version tastes better to me. It's more flavourful

The powder acts kindof like a pickle, it kills the bacteria from the inside, fermenting it.

My Thai girlfriend makes it without the powder. She uses cooked rice and it works just fine. You can leave out the chillies if you don't like it hot.

if you like raw Nam you can buy irradiated Nam for parasite free.
Nam is easy to make. Pork, pig skin, garlic, pig ears (optional) and must add cooked rice for feed bacteria.
You can cook Nam for steam, grill, fried with others recipe like fried rice, Nam fried rice, boil with vegetable, pizza topping, etc.
