🇱🇦 Lao Khao Soi Is My FAVOURITE Noodle Soup of ALL TIME ! All day FOOD TOUR in Luang Prabang Laos

[@TEEZS10]

never thought i’d see the day that a couple of folks from England would be enjoying a bowl of Khao Soi Lao. even in areas of the US where asian culture and asian restaurants are prevalent, Khao Soi Lao is still somewhat of a rare dish. probably because the fermented bean paste is not so readily available. i’ve been enjoying Khao Soi since i was small child, much like your little one, and it is indeed my absolute favorite dish of all time too! all of the punchy flavors hit just right! cheers mate!

[@theroamingcook]

It's a dish I'd fly anywhere in the world for!

Any ideas on how to make the Bahn Cuon yourself at home? I don’t have the funds to travel or a good Vietnamese restaurant near me, but I love Vietnamese food ever since I went to a Vietnamese restaurant with family years ago… I love cooking foods from all different cultures ; it’s my way of travelling without breaking the bank or having to leave my dogs at a dog hotel while being abroad 😂

That looks like a great way to spend the day (or days, depending on the weather), and it reminds me of Thailand back in the day. Not as relaxing or tourist friendly back then, but the food and the total ambience alongside the Mekong and the tributary brought me back. And I do recall that some of the Lao guys who were with us loved all the Thai meals; not as different from what I really enjoyed in Thailand as Viet Nam dishes are. I did one of my mashups last night for dinner with yellow chile paste, and Thom Yum paste, coconut milk and chicken with a lot of leftover vegetables, palm sugar, shrimp paste, etc., and it might not have been an authentic curry, but it was damn good. Now if I can only convince my love to travel to Thailand/Laos/Viet Nam, and the rest, I might just get to try some real food; her daughters were over there two years ago and loved it, but they still can't get her on board.

[@theroamingcook]

Yeah the food is very similar to Isan for the most part. Obviously there are differences but a lot is the same too. Hopefully you can convince you're better half one day! The curry sounds great!

Every time I make the pork base for kao soi..I had to ask mom for the fermented beans which I can't get in store even in California (bay area). I also make the sausage at home my way with bacon added in with lots of herbs.. thanks to Amazon I can order the casing for the sausage. Great to see laung prabang busy again. Will need to go back again. Little Fin and the tissue box 🤣

[@djai3782]

You can use Japannese soy miso past or Tao jeo instead. I think tou can find it in Japanese or Chinese or Korean groceries

[@theroamingcook]

Sounds amazing, do you deliver to Thailand? 😀 Haha, I didn't even notice Finley and the tissue 😅

[@kyles8298]

It's not the same. We make it here too. Even mom buys it from my people that makes them (mien ..aka yao). I have relatives in Laos and Thailand sometime they sent it here to sale the fermented bean paste. I have seen it at the Korean store? It's a bit different. I can probably make it myself if I ask mom..just don't have the time. The sausage is very good (white people love it :) I put diff ingredients but still lots of lemon grass) I wish I can attach pic on here. I freeze the pork base after I make it so I can eat it for several months. I made a vegan version that I turn into a sauce..omg delicious. Hope no one is using the tissue after Fin ..I was distracted by him the whole time with the tissue box, 🤣
