Popular Post Chonburiram Posted July 3, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) Today we make butterfly pea flower tea (Nam Anchan) Remove the green bracts,(it has some mild poison in it, some people could have an allergic reaction). The tea will also taste better wash pack put in near boiling water after 3 - 4 min remove butterfly pea flowers, cool down, sweeten (or not) with what/how much you want, fill it in a jug or bottles, refrigerate, enjoy cooled with a splash of lemon (turns the colour from deep blue to purple) Edit: Forgot, for more info, look here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clitoria_ternatea Edited July 3, 2015 by Chonburiram 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post samuijimmy Posted July 4, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2015 Greying Thai men use it for darkening their hair too..... ^^^ Also a plant I now avoid having in the garden, it seeds itself everywhere, and twines over everything... extremely difficult to get rid of!!! Just to let you guys know, I am in the process of moving house.... hence not too much posting, lately. I have been trying to keep up with viewing each day, but that is about as far as it gets!... My main computer is still at the old house, so working off my Mac Air... which is OK but tedious with the smaller screen!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chonburiram Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 ^Sj, you are excused. Moving to another beach or more uphill? The old auntie who picks the flowers in her dooryard said it's good for hair grow and eyesight. And yes, very invasive... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dancealot Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 Pre-cooked Beautiful photo, Goompa . A lot of black and a daring amount of contrast. At the farm they're considered cat-food but I can eat plah-tuh(Indian makerel). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dancealot Posted July 6, 2015 Author Popular Post Share Posted July 6, 2015 For the coinaisseurs: Som Pak. All I know is this batch has been vermenting in clear water for 36 hours. I've been spending time with the people who make it traditionally. Still, they wouldn't reveal all the ingredients to prepare it properly to me.... Again.... it's an aquired taste like wine and plah-rhaa. I've grown to love it and it's a great snack while drinking beer... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chonburiram Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 ^Afaik, you take the washed vegies, put salt on them and squeeze the mix gently. Escaping water is thrown away. Then you fill up with water you got from washing rice or, soaking Kaoniau. Wait and enjoy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Chonburiram Posted July 7, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) Today we made Malva nut tea (Nam Samrong) First you have to wash, and then soak the nuts in lukewarm water 30 min later... Now, you need to remove the hard skin and the kernel, only keep the gelatinous mass Here you can see the kernel ^ Mince the mass a little with your fingers and put in near boiling water If you are concerned about hygiene you can boil it for 30 sec and then, let it cool down. The fruit flesh from the Malva nut stays in the tea, it gives a funny mouthfeel while drinking. Unsweetened, it tastes quite bland, so I like to sweeten it with... Unfortunately, my canadian connection is not the fastest, so, I run out of the good stuff and have to substitute with local honey Ready to refrigerate, to consume within 2-3 days When I first bought Malva nuts a few years ago, you could get 1 kg for 150฿, now, 500฿ is considered cheap... Off season 1 kg can go up to 1200฿... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sterculia_lychnophora Edited July 7, 2015 by Chonburiram 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
