“Som tam is a green papaya salad mostly related to the northeastern part of Thailand (Isaan), although it’s often instructed that it first appeared in Laos. Apart from skinny strips of green papaya, this salad normally contains roasted peanuts, green beans, tomatoes, and a tangy sauce sometimes made with garlic, chilli peppers, fish sauce, dried shrimps, palm sugar, and lime or tamarind juice.”
“ Psycho are plentiful and can include numerous additions. The sauce also can appear in many different combos, and may significantly vary in sweetness and spiciness. Numerous eating places and street stalls permit the customers to choose on the variability they like and regulate the elements to their desire.”
The web site also described the ninth-best salad on the earth, phla kung…
“This hot and sour shrimp salad consists of blanched shrimps mixed with chopped lemongrass stalks, shallots, kaffir lime leaves, cilantro, and mint leaves, all covered with a chilli-lime dressing. The spicy shrimp salad is usually positioned atop recent lettuce leaves, and then garnished with recent mint sprigs.
