JuliaMarinated grilled pork ribs, cucumber salad, and “bald head” jaew — and sticky rice, of course — from A Child of the Rice Fields.
It is exciting how much lemongrass, garlic, and chilies go into the marinade! No messing around! And fish sauce, soy mushroom and Golden Mountain sauces. All that and overnight soak plus eight hours on a low and slow grill. We got a serious pink ring with that timing.
Fresh green cucumber salad — I did not pound it too much — with lime juice and pa daek. Thanks to an Eastern European market nearby, we could get bumpy Russian cucumbers with black dots, if you know them. They are not watery, almost have no seeds, and their crunch is louder than that of a snow on a frosty day.
Yes, it’s time to move on to the next recipe in the jaew chapter but I still did not have enough fill of this simple first one.
