[@ponbounket8057]

I just love you!! I have learned alot of Laos cooking from all your amazing videos!! Thank you!!

[@familyyoutube5560]

Thanks euy Nana! I love spending time in the kitchen and cooking Lao foods, using your recipes. My wife is always working and doesn't have time to prepare daily meals, so I'm up for the job.

[@CookingwithNana]

Phetdavone Keomanipheng you're welcome. glad to help

[@alexroos4195]

She needs to make it short. You can cut it anyway you want..it's all the same.

[@LuckyHeng]

Good to see you cooking again Nana. Please upload some more video.

[@velvetshaus5580]

WoW,,,I was watching other videos of how 2make pickled mustard,,then I see your video ...I was more interested on the way you prep yours....your green mustard look so fresh ...thank you for sharing ...god bless

[@pipen53]

Thanks mine came out quite well. I had mixed jasmine and brown rice which I used and it took bout a week to get the sour taste.

[@ChunmaiRoo]

Yum!!! Thank you for sharing your recipe. Ever since I left my mom’s house, I have not eaten som pak. I didn’t realize how easy it was. I should have paid more attention when I was younger because she made this all the time but I guess I never cared for it. Now I’m researching how to maintain a healthy gut, suggested I eat more fermented foods… and here I am. Haha. Lao kimchi. I’m definitely making this. Kop jai lai lai Nana! If you still live with your Mom, please pay more attention and remember her recipe!

[@CookingwithNana]

I also have the pickled cabbage tutorial. Cabbage is easier to find than mustard greens. I made most of the videos when my mom was still with us. She passed away in 2015.

[@ChunmaiRoo]

Sending my condolences 💐. Thank you for sharing your family recipe! We really appreciate you helping us bring back memories of what we grew up eating and sharing your recipe to help us cook from home. Please continue to make more videos Nana!!!

[@lilly7882]

Thank you! Now , I know how to make it but l will try with radish greens.😊

[@TheJasonYamamoto]

[@ninasaephan935]

[@kibafng]

Thank you for uploading this video NaNa! I've attempted to make this a couple of times and it never came out right... now I know why Lol! I love pickled mustard greens.

[@sarahthlang]

Really miss your cooking tutorials ! Hopefully you have more time showing us more recipe !

[@CookingwithNana]

Thank you Tori. My editor is behind with the videos. There are still 6 videos coming soon!

[@presidentoxford]

You & recipe are amazing. Curious why Ginger, Chilli ( & maybe cucumber , Garlic, Spring onions ) weren't added to ferment process.

[@CookingwithNana]

We want the mustard greens to keep its own taste. If you add those other ingredients during fermentation they will change the taste and can't be removed afterwards.

[@shaunavadisirisack1528]

Looks sooo yum !!! Thanks Nana you are the best 😘😘😘😘

[@trinitymarie2693]

[@chouavoung7762]

Can we used any kind of vegetable green to do the sompak or does it have to be mustard green.

[@aznprnz2225]

Choua Voung any greens or even non green I'm sure will work, I use green papaya before, peeled cut it into square cubes and pickled, crunchy/crispy n YUMMY!

[@megatronmoneybag8576]

nana you are nice with lao cooking.

[@souniengvongkhoth3421]

ຂອບໃຈຫລາຍ thank you from Lao in Belgium

[@maivang8368]

Nana so you can use cooked jasmine rice or sticky rice doesn’t matter as long as you soak in water first before use right

[@CookingwithNana]

Mai Vang yes, I prefer to use cooked sticky rice, but Jasmine rice will also work.

[@Esperalzi-Esfaral]

Wonder how it tastes if you use other veggies, like cabbage or amaranth or cucumber or eggplant or zucchini. I'm thinking of using pisonia to do this pickle, just to find out how it tastes. I;m adventurous when it comes to cooking.

[@CookingwithNana]

Esperalzi Esperal I also have video with cabbage kzbin.info/www/bejne/nGfFoaRopb9niNk.

[@samviengkone5238]

Yes , sorry ! Yes it tuned out great . I normally it doesn’t turn out well for me. Thanks again

[@Whotiquilus]

nice. looks good. i will try

[@gaildikhounphipheth1016]

Thank you 👍

[@sueher4563]

When you put the rice in to the green ,is the rice cooked or raw rice?

[@aznprnz2225]

it's cooked before soaking then into cabbage

[@amyli9191]

How come mine is so salty only n not sour ?

[@leeahinthisan9854]

Would I be able to mix the salt sugar and water first and pour it into the mustard greens?

[@CookingwithNana]

Leeah Inthisan you still have to squeeze the mustard greens.

[@phaysith123]

nana teach us how to cook stir fry bamboo my husband want me to cook it

[@Gekk04]

Hi Nana! Are there any other vegetables I can use as a substitute for mustard greens? I couldn't find any at the store yesterday.

[@CookingwithNana]

Have you tried my pickled cabbage recipe? kzbin.info/www/bejne/nGfFoaRopb9niNk it's slightly different taste, but some people prefer this one.

[@Gekk04]

Thanks so much, Nana! I LOVE watching your videos!

[@Sooyasong]

this is great! I love your videos!

[@ew29858]

How long does this last in the fridge?

[@imChanthip]

As long as every time you take some out with clean utensils, it'll last a while. Just keep an eye on it for mold.

[@emilyvang831]

Hello nana, can you do a recipe of the pumpkin custard dessert? Kohp gai

[@tchris8561]

Would it be okay not to use the plastic wrap to cover the greens during pickling?

[@CookingwithNana]

Tou Christensen the plastic wrap is to keep as much air away from the veggies as possible. If you have a container that doesn't let too much air in, it should be be ok.

[@yajboi303]

What does the rice do? Do we need to use rice?

[@CookingwithNana]

The rice makes it sour.

[@tashabrown7661]

Annie Lee I think she used raw rice. For me, I used cooked rice. Sometime, I used cooked water that I boiled my rice with.

peakarach I sometimes add chopped cilantro and sliced garlic if people ask for it.

[@ew29858]

How long does this last in the fridge?

[@CookingwithNana]

elise wong if you keep it tightly covered, it should last several weeks in the fridge. Only thing to watch out for is you might get mold on the surface if you use unclean utensils to to serve it.
