If you think the "nom tuk" is good, make some "som tum" and you'll be here in a flash! You can replace the papaya with cucumbers or even apple. Here the 3 juices are tamarind, lime juice, and fish sauce. Regardless of what the recipe you find and choose to use says, I say go for all three. Dried shrimp might be hard to find, but don't pass up the garlic (just the cloves whole in and beat it up), peanuts (better if roasted), green beans, and tomatoes (if you can take it). As for the chilies I always order mine without. I used to say not spicey, but to Thais that means just 1 or 2 chilies. Josh always gets his with minimum of 4. I think he has a hole in his intestines! Try it out. I have it nearly every day and haven't tired of it yet! Which is why you need to come here! If you think the “nom tuk” is good, make some “som tum” and you’ll be here in a flash!

It looks delicious! I’m so impressed that you grilled a steak and then had the patience to put it in a salad. It looks delicious!

Those limes are adorable. Lovely salad, even if it is good for the waist line. Those limes are adorable.
