[@SaengsKitchen]

How many peppers do you like in your papaya salad?

[@Mandphan]

I like 10+ 🌶🌶🌶in my tum 😳🤤😂👍🏼

[@twylap8525]

I have a very sad case of cannot deal. I love the flavors of the peppers but almost any heat is too much for me. It's quite upsetting.

[@livejazz8354]

About 50.

[@casscruz4129]

Omg..looks soo delicious 😋

[@farmsaechao6730]

Like 10

[@FunkayJunk]

Thanks for spreading awareness of Lao food!! I went to a “Thai” restaurant yesterday that had a whole specialty section that listed all Lao food, and when I saw on their menu they named Thum Mak Hoong to Som Tum Lao, my Lao heart broke a bit 💔

[@bittermelonleaf]

Lao style papaya salad is soooo much better than Thai style!

[@mouayandrews8515]

I also love bittermrlon 🍃 It goes well with all laotian foods 😋

[@jumperpastlife1174]

I need to try it before I start a fight 😂

[@acemany1126]

Their both good. The Lao style however is too spicy for my liking. I alway ask my homie to chill out on the peppers lol

[@kaym7704]

I love Lao style…but I don’t care for the actual crab in it.

[@sophieson6156]

I agree! Lol

[@TyTimeIsAwesome]

I've had many types of papaya salad, but nothing hits like Lao style. Easily my favorite.

[@AlistairEwingforensic-services]

My favourite dish, period. Love from England.

[@59jlopez70]

I had Thai and Laos papaya salad but Laos papaya salad takes you to a whole new level of flavor lol. I miss Laos papaya salad when I lived in Vegas and Cali but here in Texas is so hard to find Laos condiments like crab paste, shrimp paste and most of all Padaek. I can make the Thai which is just plain fish sauce chili’s and lime. Mostly here in Texas is Chinese, Japanese, Filipino and Korean (mostly Korean). Hopefully when the pandemic is over I can finally ask friends to send me stuff or visit Vegas and stock up lol.

Go to Hong Kong market at Arlington Hey 303

[@stevethea5250]

U sure it's not simply cos of the different restaurant preparation? Even if your ordered fried rice from 2 places with be different

[@stevethea5250]

Or 2 chefs cooking fried rice

[@jacobeksor6088]

i am montagnard jarai tribe laos papaya salad is my favorite also eat with sticky rice

[@julianelcash2261]

Oh yeah !!!!!! Lao is best !!!!! Cambodian is number 2 and Thai is good too, but only south, like in Phuket or Nakhon si thammat

[@SaengsKitchen]

I agree! Lao papaya is the best!

[@julianelcash2261]

@@SaengsKitchen btw you here in USA ? Because i have to drive 3 hours to Naples to have some real Lao food ! Is hard for me to find the ingredients for pok pok in soflo

[@abmong]

The thing is, most Thum Mak Hoong that is eaten outside of Laos is eaten by Thais where it's known as Som Tam Lao. The Som Tam most foriegners like is Som Tam Thai (Tam Thai), most foriegners don't like the fermented fish in the Lao/Isaan dish.

[@sarenaven3349]

Love my spicy 😍😘😍 papaya salad 👍 love watching you cooking

[@Jeeps4evaandeva]

I can not wait to make this! Why am I watching it past midnight dang it!

[@Vic2H]

[@nokphannaly9554]

I love how you explain the ingredients..I would love to see a video of how to make ba dak..keep up the great work ❤

[@foreignfoodies0521]

I followed this video a while back . Now my wife makes me make the thum from now on . Great job 👍🏽

[@molov3220]

[@SaengsKitchen]

[@mansiashley]

[@booeyphom2459]

Looks yummy! Love how you said fun facts about the ingredients lol but for the coun kao, gotta say fish sauce or lao fish sauce for them! Baa daek

[@tkeosaksith]

So every time I eat papaya salad with sticky rice or white rice and say a protein, the next morning when I do my business I do take a really good number 2. It seems the papain and the papaya itself which is high in fiber help clear out a lot of the stuff.

[@rosalielukkari9080]

Thank you for sharing your Papaya Salad, looks delicious 😋

[@bw0716]

honestly its the funkiest salad out there

[@jingzhou230]

My favorite salad

[@zajntxhaisntxawm5212]

u should of try with sour mango and mix with papaya taste even more good.

[@namotenashi]

Healthy and refreshing salad. It is full of flavor and looks very delicious! I want to eat while drinking beer!

[@itsANGEEEEEL]

Funky is his favorite adjective.

[@joyxam7882]

Mmmmm papaya salad always make me drool!

[@sabaideeDIY]

That papaya salad looks so delicious! Baw pet baw saap 😋 new support here and fully watched. Stay connected ❤️

[@QThao]

Best papaya salad!!! Mouth watering.

[@TheresFuckeryAfoot]

When I was a immigrant Lao kid in the Midwest of the US, I used to go around elementary school telling the kids who bully gentler kids that I was going to “Phuck them up” and make karate chop hand movements. 😂😂 When they ran to tell on me that I was “cussing” I would say, “in my language that means ‘chop’. So They shouldn’t bully the little kids or they are going to get chopped up!” 😏

[@JackieHearts]

My friend sent me your page. She made your version and it was so good! I’m going to try to make this!

[@SaengsKitchen]

Welcome to my page and enjoy the recipe :)

[@thanousinhxayachack5211]

I am ready for papaya salad now

[@kennycray5406]

Lao invention!!!

[@eehanee]

Here because I need to make a party pan size salad. Lol I don't want to mess up for the guests! Thanks for the recipe

[@tungmuongnamvong1813]

Definitely gonna make this ❤

[@raydrawsdaly]

Thank you so much. Awesome video!

[@salammaheshworidevi9176]

This is very similar to papaya sinju of Manipur, India. Do check out

[@Bzkhavptes]

Yeah, I like this kids friendly version of thum mak hoong It doesn't contain 250 peppers

[@chelshisfave]

I absolutely loved this video !!! My dad and aunts (cousins) make some good tom mak hoong. I wonder if they use the crab paste. I know we use the pa dak and everything else you used but I'm not sure about the crab paste 🤔 I might have to try. Gonna make some soon to show my brother how to make it.

[@chalamrobkob3123]

น่ากินมาก. look yummy

[@tonilande4295]

the real question, where did you get that awesome plate ??

[@simsim4050]

Hi Saeng! New subscriber here! Glad I found your channel too! Keep the recipes coming! Thank you 🙏

[@Horsekick9times]

I eat papaya almost everyday.... 25 days per month.

[@leilani2258]

Thank you for this video!

[@twotgfltandahalf]

Hi, just found your channel and seeing all these Lao recipes brings a slew of nostalgia for me. :) A question about this recipe; how would you suggest adapting it from someone with shellfish allergies?

[@urtypicalguy]

This is the 5th video that I've watched from you since subscribing yesterday. I really enjoy your thorough and thoughtful descriptions and fun facts! I know this is super simple for you but can u make a quick video on the best way you make your sticky rice? Is there a way to make it in the rice cooker as well?

[@urtypicalguy]

@@SaengsKitchen awesome! I'll def check out that video, thanks again! Keep up the fantastic content!

[@menisk5812]

Is the crab paste important and how does it taste?

[@loutsavanhtheuamthalaray1492]

Looks delicious!!

[@lanhtranthien757]

Where can I find crab sauce? I don’t see them in the Asian stores.

[@jeffreybelmes8149]

where can i get a mortar and pestle like that?

[@annkeovilay3233]

Yummy 😋

[@iROChakri]

Normally Thai papaya salad is the best but this one looks good too 😋

[@vanhungle2657]

Lao Papaya Salat!!! There‘re many different…

[@Mahiru]

Wish I had good padek where I live...

[@renkaundan]

I remember atsara

[@alikhim7774]

Do you have a video on how to make padek? I miss eating thum mak hoong

[@SaengsKitchen]

No I don’t have a video on padaek yet

[@nottyger]

Oh my gosh I started laughing my ass off when you said "fresh padek from under the sink" because that's where I get all my padek too 😂 I was also hoping you'd show us how to make padek because that's one of the only ingredients I can't ever get a hold of when I'm not at home. Hope you make a video about that sometime!

[@canadaroad1798]

Wow.. Interesting..

[@megapuiable]

appreciate you censored the word that means "chop the papaya" in Lao 🤣

[@renakiko3140]

But.. what's wrong with that word??? Is it a bad word or something???

[@kerriesaephanh]

Where do I get these ingredients if I don't have a lao auntie?! lol. Especially the salty crab sauce, I don't know where to look

[@tiffaniluy2020]

delicious!!!!

[@eddjordan2399]

great channel.

[@SaengsKitchen]

Thanks.

[@juner480]

😂 was wondering if you we're going to say it 😂🤣

[@thetoastyfox]

Ok every crab and shrimp paste I have found at the Asian markets have been red, I cannot find the black pastes. Are these frozen ones or maybe I'm not getting the right kind.

[@pinkydoodles]

Is there a way for to sub the crab paste? I really love lao papaya but Im allergic to crab/shrimp.

[@MsLansones]

Can we use palm sugar instead of regular sugar?

[@itsNinaLeeyo]

Do you have a recommendation for a specific brand of paste/sauce? Bc I go to the store and there's so many brands. My aunties and my mom have a preference but they always tell me "the whole with the yellow label". They basically don't describe it well enough 😂

[@knyghtryder3599]

I believe yellow label is pentai or penthaia or something

[@ajax8079]

They sell that black crab paste at the store?

[@MinhNguyen-vt4pv]

Where I can buy black sauce?

[@clopez4780]

How do you make badak??

[@butterflyduff11]

I don’t have room in my apartment for all of the ingredients 😢 does anyone have a favorite pre made papaya salad sauce? A pic would be greatly appreciated!

[@sayhitobobby]

Where did you buy that cute platter?

[@SaengsKitchen]

Southeast Asian market called LAX-C In Los Angeles Chinatown area

[@hello.9628]

I’d eat that with grilled fish and rice.

[@MinhNguyen-vt4pv]

Why add dry hot pepper?

[@krisbaral6586]

I love it but I won't be able to find the black ingredients in here.

[@sango3223]

The black thing is crab paste. U can find it at asian stores.

[@sandycandy9240]

looks delish but you forgot the makok

@@SaengsKitchen YAY!!! I'll check out your other videos soon 🙌😉

[@mamichula1177]

Arent several of these sauces the same? Is fish sauce, crab sauce and padaek not the same? Sorry lol I’m learning to cook Lao dishes for my husband and I’m so lost 😭

[@pizzaandranchslaps115]

No, they aren’t the same! 😆 they’re similar and all sauces and paste are salty since they are fermented.

[@knyghtryder3599]

I agree with you , nobody has a video just explaining all these ingredients in English , just the basics , how are they different, which are most similar , which do people sub out , what other recipes would you use naam pu or field crab paste , i only see three ....... Normally listed on the net crab paste dipping sauce , lap papaya salad , pomelo salad Why only these three ? I would assume people in the north would always use crab paste and almost never shrimp paste, where as people on the coast would be opposite etc. But in these internet recipes they always use 4-5 fermented ingredients , that's too much for me , too much sauce , i use pla ra and crab paste only

[@LoInfinity]

@@knyghtryder3599 I usually use padek n shrimp paste. Sometimes I use crab paste. I just experiment with different ingredients and vegetables.
