Be careful with that knife and the chop chop of the papaya Can you describe the flavor of the green papaya? I need to try this. Sadly when I am overseas I am scared to try anything that isn't cooked in restaurants. Growing up in South America so many friends got amoeba from water sources used to 'wash' the raw fruits and vegetables, etc, in that we learned not to eat 'raw' cuisines at diners. My dad got giardiasis from the water used to make a form of chimichri salsa for steaks in Peru once.

Papaya salad is very hard to make taste great if you don't have the skills to mix right amount of spices or ingredients. I know cuz I have tried but always fail to make it taste delicious & I have tasted other vendors mixes too and it is sometimes difficult to find the person that can make great papaya salad. But once you find that person. he/she has you as a customer for life. Love papaya on a hot summer day

Thanks for the video. My mexican coworker loves som tam but does not know how to make it. I emailed this video to her today and I also stopped by the asian supermarket to buy her a green papaya. Hopefully she will learn how to make it for herself and her philippino husband who had never liked Lao style papaya salad until oneday I made Thai style for him to try. Now he loves it.

Yes I did I have been following Thai recipes cooking for 8-9 years now but have never tried this salad before. And I've been wanting to try this salad for years now and I wasn't disappointed at all. I would love to prepare it at home but green papaya are hard to come by here. It seems you travel a lot. Let me know if you come to Japan let me know

Another excellent vid Mark. I'm eating more cabbage as I'm trying to loose weight. But eating it raw is a little hard core. I like it blanched slightly or stir fried with very little oil. But I'll try it in a salad combo like that and see. I have to buy a mortar and pestal now to try some of these Thai recipes. lol

I don't happen to make it this way but some of my relatives do make it this way. I usually start with the peppers, salt and garlic then add papaya, sugar, tamarind sauce, crab paste, shrimp paste, lime, peanuts or peanut butter, fish sauce. Damn, I'm salivating just thinking about it.
