meatballs Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Mama noodles 3 times a day everyday in my 1000 baht per month fan room. Sometimes I'll spoil myself and put an egg in there if I can get a good deal on the almost rotten ones. Be careful or you'll burn a hole in your pocket..

krisb Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Our noodle shop neighbour uses tap water to cook, instead of an 8bht 20ltr bottle of drinking water, so Never!! tap waters fine if its boiled....unless its just the thought that turns you off?

NeverSure Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Don't you have to pressure cook water to destroy botulism toxin? Not for this. Botulism poisoning isn't caused by the organism or spores themselves, but rather by a toxin they produce over time. I suspect you're thinking of canning low PH items where botulism could thrive and produce the poison, and you're right, it takes a higher temp than boiling to kill it thus pressure cooking. The good news is that heat will also destroy that toxin. Boiling for ten or 15 minutes will make the food safe again. It's when acidic foods are improperly canned and then eaten without cooking that people get stung. I was always far more concerned about any chemicals from pesticides to MSG in the food than about it being sterilized by heat. I never did feel good about eating street food but it tasted great and I ate a lot of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longstebe Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Once a week, if that. Not the noodle soup stuff though the ones in the packets. Add an egg and some spring onion (green onion for our American friends ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaifkrlim Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 ba mee moo daeng is full of MSG it's very low quality and low quantity for 30bt in Asia the noodle quality is mama equivalent moo daeng in these stalls are dyed red with unknown substance or perhaps a kind of approved food colouring, barbecued pork should be brownish the amount of pork scratchings and pork lard served in the noodles are very unhealthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And mama is not fresh egg noodle. they are not the same thing. Yes moo daeng is made with food coloring, i have made it myself and every recipe i have seen asks for it, but you can leave it out. As with everything moderation is the key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astral Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 2 or 3 times a week. Tasty, but not fattening. I do sometimes add prawns, garlic, cabbage and soy sauce to spice it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
