Thanks Bambi for your very fast reply. With regards to the first one I was told that Din Prasiew was Potassium nitrate, which believe it or not I was able to buy in the local fresh food market. Potassium nitrate is not as stable to use as Sodium Nitrite in curing foods as the temperature is far more critical when using Potassium nitrate.

Edit: If you go to this link it has more information.

Yes, I think you can buy Din Prasiew from local market or chinese herb store. People here use it as food preservation in Naam. However, if you want Sodium Nitrite indded (and Sodium Erythorbate) , you can buy it at

Suksapan panish shop is located near the Democracy Monument. You may ask them for "Sodium Nitrite " instead of using the word "Din Prasiew".

I'm sorry mpdkorat, but it won't work. A bad actor will always be a bad actor.
