The rice in the video look more like raw than cooked, but the annotation calls for cooked rice. To me it makes more sense to use raw as it contains yeast etc for fermentation.
Yes, but pay attention to how much you put. For us, regular salt is too salty and the added iodine in salt may interfere with the fermentation process. Let us know how yours go. :)
For us, we don’t use crab paste in papaya salad. We use salted crab instead. People would suck the crab water from the shell and it’s so good. As for crab paste, you would need small crabs from the rice field which unfortunately are very hard to find these days due to chemical overuse! 😢
I'm looking into how to make "surmört" (fermented roach; basically a cousin to surströmming) in my country and thus came to know about pla-rah. Can you ferment roach this same way? Why the added rice? Also this is just a glass jar... Will it not break? Do you need to burp it? The other recipes I saw seemed to add a lot more rice (?).
You might be able to follow the above video for your fermented roach. For us, Pla Rah need to be a little sour, hence the rice is added because it gives that sour complexity to the taste profile. However, if you don’t like it, you can also make salted fish or even fish sauce by omitting the rice. As for the amount of rice used, you can adjust it to your liking.
@@happyearthfarm Thanks for the reply. I'm still interested in trying though a little skittish about it potentially making me sick not knowing 100% how to make it (the Swedish recipe is there to go by ofcourse). This is fresh water or salt water fish being used? When you say remove the organs... Do you also remove the "blood streak"(dk the english word) near the spine or do you leave it intact? Also do you scale it (hard to tell from the video as idk this particular fish)? And do you need to burp the can/open the lid now and then? Sour sounds good.👍🙂
@@SicketMog This is a fresh water fish. When we clean it, we have to remove the scale and other organs but we keep the bones intact which helps when cooking it later. (For big fish, we normally cook it by frying) Since this is salt curing with no water involver, we don’t have to open and close the lid to let the air out. Hope this answers your questions.
@@happyearthfarm It does I think (though might come back with more questions who knows). Thank you very much; I must remember to try it come spring (favoriting the video). 👍
In this one we use Pla Sroi, a typ of small fresh water fish. Here's more info. th.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%B8%9B%E0%B8%A5%E0%B8%B2%E0%B8%AA%E0%B8%A3%E0%B9%89%E0%B8%AD%E0%B8%A2

@@ella4399 If the fish is big enough you can pan-fry it and top it up with fried shallots. Else some people also add a little in the curry paste such as this one ruclips.net/video/1gHkdJt4ghs/видео.html&ab_channel=HappyEarthFarm.:)
@@ella4399 You can try. We recommend using wild fresh water small fish. The smell is salty and strong similar to shrimp paste/fish sauce or fermented anchovies.
I will try this.

หน้ากินมากๆครับ❤
ขอบคุณค่ะ ย่าชอบทอดปลาร้าทั้งตัวแล้วทานกับข้าวสวยค่ะ 😊
You still everything’s good for you!!!!
All is good thanks! :)
Can we use dried fish for fermenting process?
Unfortunately not. We need the juice inside of the fish as it contains natural yeast crucial for fermentation to happen.
Can I use regular salt's too?
Yes, but pay attention to how much you put. For us, regular salt is too salty and the added iodine in salt may interfere with the fermentation process. Let us know how yours go. :)
Hi can u make video crab paste for papaya salad..im really need learn it👏👏👏

How much salt are putting? Does it have to be salty so fish can be preserved or is it according to taste?
Usually, we use around 3-4 handful of salt for about half a kg of fish. But it also depends how salty you want it to be. :)
Please after the salt, did you add some rice? I saw something like rice adding to the fish 👍
Yes I did. It's the rice or some people may use rice bran.
@@happyearthfarm thanks dear 👏
