Smokey and the Bandit Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 I totally agree that Tom Yum Kung is delicious and deserves to be high on the list, but to mention CNN in the same breath is a complete joke. CNN are proven liars, ask the Covington kids, they cannot be trusted! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes indeed, and my favorite Thai dish when I lived in Lanna. However, with respect, can it really be called a "soup" with the thick base of soft noodles and crispy noodles in the topping? IMO it is more a substantial meal than a soup but I may be wrong. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone can do the soup but not everyone can prepare the fillings that are mostly done by hand and cook delicious wonton. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubbaJohnny Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 The photogrph is not genuine Tom Yam Kung as any Thai will tell you, it is Tom Yam adulterated with canned milk or canned coconut likely or unlikely butter/cream/yoghurt or yesterday margerine, Tom Yam is neither a consomme, soup nor a cooler like a gazpacho or a Vichysoisse but a broth.https://www.merriam-webster.com › dictionary › broth The meaning of BROTH is liquid in which meat, fish, cereal grains, or vegetables have been cooked Tom Yam however is one of my favourites here if home made. Ofc course anyone can label or add anything but in my view cream, milk or coconut are not part of the recipe as others note. Equally good and not hard to make, Vichysoisse, Cullen Skink, Pea and Ham and of course the pinnacle of all Sopa de Mariscos the Lobster Bisque. as Tom Yummy said" LOS for all the broths , broth all its got the lot". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like the Thai noodle soup with shredded chicken. They put spring onions and fried garlic in it. They don't always use shredded chicken and I avoid those that don't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha ha... not today, or tomorrow, or the next day...???? This come up a few years ago ,when Bangkok got its first Egon Ronnie 5 star awards . The menu was wrote in Egon Ronnie speak ,but as mtls2005 said it was basically a crab meat omelette,at 1000 baht. Must agree a good Tom Yam takes some beating ,but who come up with the idea of putting evaporated milk in it ,some restaurants near here do it ,very nice to,a bit different from the wife's Chow Bann ,village recipe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
