I lost my shredder/peeler and I was too scared to cut my cucumber with a knife so I used a cheese grater which worked really well. Lol.
@HouseofXTia7 жыл бұрын
bahahaha gotta do what you gotta do
@ahhwe-any74346 жыл бұрын
I was thinking the same thing about the cheese grater! No way am I using a knife like that either. But I just decided on getting the shredder tool instead, yesterday. I was kind of irritated though. It was 5 for 3. I didn't want to spend that much... But w.ever. I got a tool I can use for several yrs to come. And if it breaks? I got 2 more.

@@ahhwe-any7434 You don't need to hold it in your hand if you don't feel comfortable using a knife like that. When I was a small kid and I helped my mom make this with papaya, I would just set the papaya on the counter, cutting board, or those large plastic mixing bowls and wack away at it. It's not nearly as skillful as it may seem at first so you'd be surprised at how easy it is to do. As I got older and was able to hold the papaya steadily in one hand, I was already comfortable enough with a knife to do it the way she does it.

I'm Laotian and I make papaya salad often. I've made it for my non Asian friends and what I notice often is that they don't like the taste of shrimp paste. To throw in crab and tamarind paste on top of padaek would turn them off. Of course you never know until you try it but my instincts said they won't but I would :)

@@HouseofXTia Most people wouldn't try Asian dishes if they knew what went into a lot of them. I tend to just leave out the questionable ingredients when I tell them what's in it so they'll continue to enjoy it lol I mean, how do you explain to someone how badaek is perfectly ok to eat given how it's made and stored lol Once you start getting into the country side of Lao, Thai, or Viet cooking, the ingredients get even more questionable for some of the dishes, no way you'll get someone to try it if they knew what was in it lol.

That's a big ass mortar you got there. You could probably make enough to feed the whole village with that.
