💎The Essentials: Base Ingredients for Som Tam Thai
To create an authentic flavor profile, you will need these key components:
🔹Chopped Papaya: The crisp, refreshing base of the salad.
🔹Tomato: Adds acidity and color.
🔹Fresh Bird's Eye Chilli: For that signature Thai heat.
🔹Garlic: A fundamental aromatic for depth.
🔹Coconut Sugar: To provide a soft, caramel-like sweetness.
🔹Cordyceps Long Pods (Yardlong Beans): For essential crunch.
🔹Fish Sauce: The savory, umami heart of the dish.
🔹Lemon Juice: For a bright, citrusy finish.
🔹Dried Shrimp: Adds texture and a salty sea-saltiness.
🔹Roasted Peanuts: The final nutty topping.
