Healthy Village Food - Tamarind Leaves Salad + Tomato Chili Dip! | Mae Hong Son, Thailand

MAE HONG SON (แม่ฮ่องสอน), THAILAND - Welcome to Muang Pon Village (เมืองปอน) in the northern Thailand province on Mae Hong Son, isolated in the mountains. This village is home to an amazing Shan, or a Thai Yai (ไทใหญ่) community who are originally from Myanmar. They have very unique food and ingredients that they use.
Today we are focusing on some of the amazing healthy salads of Shan food. Most of the ingredients were harvested right within the backyard or within the surrounding hills of the village.
They made a number of different combination salad including chilies, garlic, shallots, and fermented soy bean discs for that boost of plant based umami - which is a huge key to the deliciousness of the food.
There was a salad made with lablab or Hyacinth bean, a salad mixed with green young shoots of tamarind leaves - one of my personal favorites - and another salad made with blanched ferns and sesame seeds. They also made a chili dip with roasted tomato and fermented soy beans and a soup with mustard greens and ginger.
An amazing, fully plant based vegan meal in this incredible village in Thailand!

    Mark, I can't begin to convey how much your Big on Spice series means to me. I've wanted to visit Thailand (and SEA) for so long but have been anxious about food since I don't eat meat or fish. Postpandemic I am planning a trip using all this information and am SO EXCITED!!! I just love seeing all the produce and herbs that are so integral to a local region. And the LOVE these Aunties put into these amazing dishes! Thank you Mark and family

    As a loyal vegan viewer of all your channels and videos, I absolutely love every kind of dish and cuisine you enjoy; I don't shy away from meat dishes, especially the variety and complexity of some foods you have found all over the world. (In fact, its almost a trick I play, when I eat my vegan food and watch you enjoy all the meats, b/c then it's like I am eating the chicken, pork, seafood etc). Plus, I've eaten many meats throughout my life, so I'm glad I can dream a little. BUT, when you profile plant based foods like these, it's the meals I most wish I could actually share with you and those who prepare them. ESPECIALLY when I see TAMARIND LEAVES?? Those are stunningly beautiful! Makes me veggie green with loving envy. Earth is Amazing. Thank you, and yum!!!

    I Absolutely Enjoyed Every Second of this video. Watching your Big On Spice Channel in your series in Thailand has made me strongly realize that I LOOOVVEEEE THAI CUISINE of any kind. I grew up eating South Asian Food, so my Pallete looks for chillie and spice. Usually South Asian Food has that dried spices turned into paste which i love, yet i find myself drifting more towards Thai way of Fresh and Dried Spices. Absolutely Amazing Mark, all your series. Mark Aboard, Big On Spice and your main channel, are all OUR saving Grace. Its always soothing, refreshing, calm and het adventurous watching all your videos. Above all, i LOVE watching you and your beautiful family.We all literally watched Little Michah Grow up in front of us and Your Gorgeous Wifes Laugh is always a treat in your videos. GodBless You and Your Family Mark and again thankyou for bringing some type of comfort to us especially during these tuff times. Means alot to us all 💟

    Now this is amazing veggie content! I much prefer this type of cuisine to more westernized vegetarian food that seems to be missing something. All the versions of fermented beans and unusual vegetables were a real revelation to me and gave me some more pandemic home fermenting ideas! I especially love the idea of drying fermented bean paste for long term storage and making a powder from it. Umami sprinkles! And the sassy aunt must have added a little extra flavor to the meal!

It is easy to buy this soya powder( Tua Nao) from local markets here as a ready made packet. It give you salty taste and protein at the same time.😋
