Kim Yoo-ah's Cucumber Som Tam
A traditional Thai cucumber salad with crisp cucumbers and a tangy, sweet, and spicy seasoning
Ingredients needed 2 servings
Recipe
Cooking tips
- Thai cucumber salad should be eaten immediately after mixing to preserve its crisp texture and prevent excess moisture from making the dressing watery.
- When diluting tamarind paste with water, avoid making it too thin, as this can dull the savory depth and refreshing tang of the dressing.
- When tossing the cucumber and carrot, do not crush or mash them—use the pestle to gently roll and coat them to maintain their crisp, crunchy texture.
Recommended for
- Those who want to easily and simply recreate authentic Thai flavors at home.
- People looking for a refreshing, spicy salad to pair with greasy dishes.
