I love how different south east asian cuisine tends to be similar yet uniquely different. This reminds me of Indonesian Sayur Asam or Malaysian Singgang/Pindang.
On my 2nd date with my girlfriend I tried to show off and impress, and give the impression that I know whats going on in the kitchen. I tried Pais' chilli basil chicken. It worked, 2 years later getting married and our 1st baby on the way, kinda like our favourite dish with sentimental value to it. I'll be cooking this tonight, although my game is up, the fiancée now knows I'm hopeless in the kitchen and just follow hot thai kitchen recipes. Easy to follow, good instruction, and always great tasting. Thanks Pai, best ever.
ohhhhh god .... u n ur videos are so addictive..... watching them from last 4 hrs almost crashing .... stay blessed and keep rising ..... love from Australia :)
I've just made it for the very first time, it was successful, am very satisfied with it, and my GOD its unbelievably delicious!!!! And yes, it made me salivate too haha This brought me back to the time when i had my very first sour Thai fish soup (just like this but it was colourless instead of orange-red) from an authentic thai restaurant in Malaysia and ever since that, i have been craving for it. I have always love and enjoy watching your videos and trying out new dishes. Because of your videos, i 've learned so much about Thai cuisine, I really love it very much
Pai, so much luv for your recipes and how-to's, i will be making this recipe Saturday for fam & neighbors, you are such a great teacher and i tell everyone it is on you!
Yes!!!! Thank you so much!! I've been waiting for someone to make this recipe! I always ask my mom but she likes to make it with fish which I hate lol. I'm so glad you used shrimp! My favorite version :)
There is a decent packet paste available, its not great but it will do if you're in a hurry. It's quite a simple dish to make but hard to make a great one as in my experience you need to get the balance just right. My old neighbour in Bang Na liked his insanely spicy and salty, my ex liked hers sour as hell. I mostly eaten it with fish not prawn and on several occasions used the rind of watermelon in place of papaya which works very well. A real favourite, so im happy to see it done here :) yaaay for htk!
I've tried Kaeng Som (I think they are the same, but they use turmeric) in Malaysia before, it is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO spicy... The spicy-ness doesnt come in right away, but like 10 mins after, and u will constantly ask for ice water. One of the spiciest Thai dishes that I have ever tried... T.T
Can't wait to make this, looks so delish! One question, can I substitute the papaya with squash, just cause I have some extra? As always thanks for this.amazing video and till we eat again🌹
hey Pai! I've tasted some sort of naeng som with bamboo shoot, chunks of fishes and the broth looks pretty yellow. I wonder if it's the same kind of naeng som you mentioned in this video?
I usually eat at this Laos and Thai restaurant. They have Laos style Papaya salad, and Laos Beef Jerky, sr i forget what it is called. I would love love love if you know how to make those, and share 😍😍😍. I love ur channel anyway
Question here. I can not find Kang SOM paste. Do you think I can use just red curry paste and tamarind juice? May 2023, other basic pastes are on sale for $1.49 but sour soup and none to find in Seattle.
Very nice pot, beautiful color! I have a strange question. 17 ingredients?! So many? Easiest curry ever? Yes, I know that a traditional curry may have more than 40 ingredients. How come in a Thai kitchen traditionally so many ingredients are used? Does a traditional household has so many preservings and a huge pantry or is it easy to get all this stuff on the market anytime? Can simple working class people afford it or is it more for middle class people?
i'm a Thai salary man,I live in Bangkok now,That's very easy to find all ingredients.But Sour curry paste is not easy to me too.I always use the instant curry paste for save time and save ingredients ,Today the instant curry paste's taste is not bad,I skip to make curry paste,I just find some vegetables and some meats what I want.and than follow cooking same thing in this video. Fish sauce and sugar(maybe white or brown sugar depend on my mom buy it),There are always in my kitchen.For another Thai curry,some fresh herbs(Example,Kaffir lime,Thai basil,Thai chili maybe lemon grass) My mom plants in the back yard,there're easy to plant .I think the instant curry paste can find in your country's supermarket. It is a popular export product from Thailand. By the way,Sorry for my English.
just watched you tropical fruit jelly cake video and have a tip for you next time you make any jelly/agar agar dishes in a metal tin, boil some water put the metal tin in a baking tray and fill the tray up with the boiled water dont let the water touch the actual dish inside just saying! let it sit for 1 minute and this will soften the layer clinging to the tin and make it slide right out to get the jelly out, place a flat(ish) plate over the cake pan and quickly flip it upside down and then release the pan and BOOM you have your dish out of the pan hope i helped! liam
Tamarind is always way too mild in the UK as well... There's so little sourness you can actually taste the calcium in it. It's like eating dates mashed into milk.
MarcieMaro : yes, there is you can substitue shrimp paste with Soybean paste wich call TaoJeiw or Meso paste also fine and fish can substitue with mushroom
I think you are the most intelligent chef on youtube. I haven't heard many speak about "structural integrity" of the vegetable, and "cohesive components" while cooking. Do you have a degree in engineering? I love your channel.
Calvin Krause Som in one sense means orange as in orange color and fruit. It isalso short for som makham or tamarind. The word priew in thai means sour taste.
now, som means orange and the color orange. som as the taste is an old fashioned word. normally we don't use som as the taste anymore. but the names of the food that were invented in the past still have "som" in it. such as plasom(sour fish), tomsom(sour soup) and in this video, geangsom.....
Hey, it would be really cool for when you introduce a new unique ingredient - to also tell us where else we could use it. Like, I want to make this, but also wanna know that I didnt purchase the entire bottle just so I can make one dish. So just a quick comment on what else this could be used for would be really helpful. Love your channel so much, otherwise... really! @PailinsKitchen
Thanks for the suggestion! You can add grachai to stir-fries or other curry pastes. Look up "pad cha" and "kanom jeen namya" these are recipes that I use grachai for.
Luv the simplicity and it looks delicious but, I am slightly confused about offering a recipe where the majority can't complete to it's authenticity due to fingerroot. Leaving it out entirely I think is pointless as its then not the same, and as you point out there is no substitute.
SOM is old-fashion wording and still use in northern and northern east, Orange was called SOM because it's sour :D, Som-Tum (papaya salad) sour + pounding
Half of the ingrediant you use we don't have in my asian store so I will just keep watching ur video much better than try it and make it to disaster dish *sigh*

The moment when she said "Welcome to Hot Thai Kitchen" with the same tempo and rhythm in every episode 😍
I was going to bed but one more video won’t hurt.. especially if yours (:
Pailin, you are the reason why I always stay up late and hanging out too much on RUclips!!!!! I can't wait to try this one!!!

A curry soup never seen before. Cool!
Hey Pai, you should try watermelon skin. Of course u gotta peel the green part first. I just made it and it's the best Ive tried
Thank you for your recipe. I tried it and it taste good.
I have been craving this
Nice recipe
So much information! Thank u for sharing. Will definitely be trying.

Your shows make me want to cook again.
When you cooked every thing i feel hungry always....i love you also...so nice sister .....
Reminds me of Spicy Filipino Shrimp Sinigang, same flavor profile I suppose. This is interesting, I have to try to make this.
I will try this! i bought a jar of fingeroot for kanom jeen (which was really good btw) & its been sitting in the fridge ever since.
I think opo/calabash squash would also be amazing in this.
Thanks for the lovely video. I will try it👏👏👏👏😍😍👍👍
Many many thanks 👍 chef of hot 🥵 Thai kitchen. Excellent 👍 chef.
I've tried Kaeng Som (I think they are the same, but they use turmeric) in Malaysia before, it is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO spicy... The spicy-ness doesnt come in right away, but like 10 mins after, and u will constantly ask for ice water. One of the spiciest Thai dishes that I have ever tried... T.T
If you see gaeng som with turmeric in it...it's gonna be extremely spicy cuz it's southern style!
that looks delicious !!
Can you please make a video on green young jackfruit? It's so versatile fruit
Hi Pai!!! You might like to cook Filipino Pinakbet.... it is a thai taste. I am telling you. And its very tasty.
I LOVE IT!!!! I like the canned vegan one XD
Can't wait to make this, looks so delish! One question, can I substitute the papaya with squash, just cause I have some extra? As always thanks for this.amazing video and till we eat again🌹
Yes you can. We also have Kaeng Som with young squash and it's very delicious.
hey Pai! I've tasted some sort of naeng som with bamboo shoot, chunks of fishes and the broth looks pretty yellow. I wonder if it's the same kind of naeng som you mentioned in this video?
I'm from Oman
i love Tai food😍😋
I usually eat at this Laos and Thai restaurant. They have Laos style Papaya salad, and Laos Beef Jerky, sr i forget what it is called. I would love love love if you know how to make those, and share 😍😍😍. I love ur channel anyway
Looks delicious. I like it. But I cannot eat too spicy food. Can you show me how to cook a less spicy version?
This dish is like Sinigang, Filipino cuisine 😋
Mau Landingin yes. I'm making Sinigang today.
And in Malaysia we call it Singgang 😊
That looks like Filipino sinigang...yummm..
Hi Pai. Just wondering if the fish broth can be replaced with chicken broth? I love this soup and I can't wait to try your recipe. Thank you.
Yes.
Cha-om Khai !!!
I'm wondering if wintermelon would work too...
朱笛 yes it would work but must be under ripe watermelon. In fact Thai people also cook with it and other under ripe fruit such as jack fruit.
Question here. I can not find Kang SOM paste. Do you think I can use just red curry paste and tamarind juice? May 2023, other basic pastes are on sale for $1.49 but sour soup and none to find in Seattle.
Deliciously charmant visuellement. Thank you.
A friend brought me some fresh curry pastes from Thailand and one is labeled "Kaeng Liang" curry paste. Is this the right recipe to use it in?
speaking of de-veining shrimp, didn't you do a video on how to do that easily? I can't recall.
Are this similar to asam laksa how we call it in Singapore.
Snake head fish is the best for Gang Som.
Hi Pai, can you show me how to make Chang mai noodle soup? Thank you
Hi, thank you. yes it is Khao Soi / curry noodle soup. I knew the soup as Chang Mai noodle soup. I will search for Pai's video. Thanks again. Cheers
Thanks for helping me answer questions!
wow I just searched google on Kanom Jeen Namngiao, that looks pretty nice too. So maybe Pai can put it on a future wish list for me :) Khob khun Krab

Pailin!!!!! why your english so fluent? and your Thai too... imma Thai cuisine-freak!!
just watched you tropical fruit jelly cake video and have a tip for you
next time you make any jelly/agar agar dishes in a metal tin, boil some water put the metal tin in a baking tray and fill the tray up with the boiled water dont let the water touch the actual dish inside just saying! let it sit for 1 minute and this will soften the layer clinging to the tin and make it slide right out
to get the jelly out, place a flat(ish) plate over the cake pan and quickly flip it upside down and then release the pan and BOOM you have your dish out of the pan
hope i helped!
liam
Thank you!
no,thank you for making great content
Que rico🤗😊😃😃 que rico !!
แกงส้มภาคกลางมาแล้ว จัดแกงส้มใต้ต่อเลยครับคุณไพลิน 555
I know papayas on Hawai'i. They are not huge like what you show. Where is yours from?
I'm not sure where this one is from, but papayas in Thailand are about that size.
Can i use the shrimp stock from Tom yum soup recipe for this?
yes
This is so similar to Malaysian "asam laksa". We eat it as noodle soup.
Love this dish, but it's quite different in the South? This one had no tumeric, southern version is also very hot
I'm starving
Nam prik noom should be next!
Tamarind is always way too mild in the UK as well... There's so little sourness you can actually taste the calcium in it. It's like eating dates mashed into milk.
Do you know how to make the southern thai gaeng som?
6.50 just add tumeric.
look so similar like Indonesian cuisine called Sayur Asem, but the veggie not using papaya
Ali Susanto Sanusi thats what i thought looks familiar
Is there vegetarian version of kaeng som?
MarcieMaro : yes, there is you can substitue shrimp paste with Soybean paste wich call TaoJeiw or Meso paste also fine and fish can substitue with mushroom
MarcieMaro protien can use Tofu too
অনেক সুন্দর
It is very different than the southern ones
Among my fav Thai food serve w egg omelet, crispy-pork belly w rice. Now I am able to cook it anytime. Thank you.
I think you are the most intelligent chef on youtube. I haven't heard many speak about "structural integrity" of the vegetable, and "cohesive components" while cooking. Do you have a degree in engineering? I love your channel.
The Thai word Som sounds similar to the Chinese word for sour, Suān. 😊
renegade!
I have an idea, can I put some young jackfruit in it or is it something you wouldn't do ?
Gaeng Som with many vegetables including young jackfruit.
I was thinking about this dish the other day. I'll be heading to the market after watching this video lol
Kaeng som Thailand, Sinigang Philippines, Sayur Asem Indonesia (Vegan), Asam Pedas Malaysia. I sum up.
Kengsom is topically southern Thailand food.
Not at from north or isaan .
In Bangkok oniy u can get from southern food restaurants.
Random question but what is the difference between *som* in gaeng som and *priew* in pad priew wan?
Calvin Krause Som in one sense means orange as in orange color and fruit. It isalso short for som makham or tamarind. The word priew in thai means sour taste.
now, som means orange and the color orange. som as the taste is an old fashioned word. normally we don't use som as the taste anymore. but the names of the food that were invented in the past still have "som" in it. such as plasom(sour fish), tomsom(sour soup) and in this video, geangsom.....
The old-fashioned meaning of 'som' is sour but it now refers to as the orange colour. And In dialects of southern Thai 'som' means crazy.
Interesting, thank you guys :)
Out of central region of Thailand (and Bangkok) still use "SOM" for Sour meaning in local language such as Northern, North-East.
We call it 'Sinigang na Hipon'...that looks so yummy hot Pai...is that Gaeng Som also Spicy and Hot, too? Thanks!
it can be :)

Thanks for the suggestion! You can add grachai to stir-fries or other curry pastes. Look up "pad cha" and "kanom jeen namya" these are recipes that I use grachai for.
I wondered what might be missing in taste wise if Grachai isn't added. Hard-to-find-ingredient means secret recipe??....haha
ต้องเปลี่ยนชื่อเป็นแกงมะนาวแล้วล่ะ
👍❤
💜
Can u make vegan version of this dish? Please
Luv the simplicity and it looks delicious but, I am slightly confused about offering a recipe where the majority can't complete to it's authenticity due to fingerroot.
Leaving it out entirely I think is pointless as its then not the same, and as you point out there is no substitute.
very nice an hot thai kitchen
som = orange, no? I thought this was a curry with some kind of citrus fruit like orange.
GretschGod the "som" just refers to the orange color of the soup :-)
si som = orange color, or gang som = sour soup
SOM is old-fashion wording and still use in northern and northern east, Orange was called SOM because it's sour :D, Som-Tum (papaya salad) sour + pounding
Thanks!
:)
“Som” has several meanings
1. Sour taste
2. Orange (fruit and color)
3. Fruit (any kind of fruit) - old people still use this word
finally
Hey hey how are you ? What about your eyes surgery ? Hope so you're well :) Thanks for the video :)
Doing alright, thank you :)
I love you
I always thought that papaya was a fruit and not a vegetable. Am I wrong?
Thank you for your reply. I like the idea of using all in cuisines. I wonder if papaya is not sweet when it is green?
In my mind gaeng does not mean curry but rather soup. We have a lot of gaengs without curry as incredient 🤔
First!!
"soup"er well lol
Half of the ingrediant you use we don't have in my asian store so I will just keep watching ur video much better than try it and make it to disaster dish *sigh*
