    🌾 Ozone House - Mon Jam (บ้านโอโซน ม่อนแจ่ม): goo.gl/maps/w1...
    Mon Jam (ม่อนแจ่ม) is a beauty mountain village in the Chiang Mai province of Thailand, just about a 1 hour drive from Chiang Mai city. It’s a predominantly Hmong village, and they are known for their amazing terrace farming up the side of the steep mountains. #vegetarian #vegan #plantbased #HmongFood
    We spent a night in Mon Jam at Ozone House (บ้านโอโซน ม่อนแจ่ม), and the owners of our hotel were so nice and friendly. They kindly cooked us a local Hmong meal, which was completely plant based / vegan and and every day style meal. It was delicious!
    First we went to pick some ingredients from the garden - string beans, pumpkin shoots, chilies, and a type of Hmong coriander - I think it was a wild coriander, I’m not totally sure? Hmong food is known for being simple, but fresh and from the land. And that’s exactly what this meal was - it mainly consisted of a variety of boiled and sautéed vegetable soups, one plain, and one flavored with a good amount of black pepper. The freshness and natural taste of the vegetables is what stood out.
    But my favorite part of this Hmong food meal was without a doubt a very simple, and extremely tasty chili sauce Aunty made with wild coriander, fresh chilies, and salt. It was so simple, and so extremely good!
    Thank you again to the amazing family from Ozone House - Mon Jam (บ้านโอโซน ม่อนแจ่ม): goo.gl/maps/w1... for cooking this amazing meal for me!
    Thank you for watching and hope you’re having a fantastic day!

Especially the chili pepper because it is how I make mine also. Thanks so much for bringing us with you.

    Hmong’s dishes are very simple but yet so rewarding. Nothing fancy but we’re satisfied with it. We cook what we got. 🙏
    Hospitality is very big part of our culture. Packing lunch to send off with our guesses or in this case packing veggies is also a thing.

    Mark, coriander has 3 stages of consumption. Stage 1 is the early stage which is mainly the leaves and stems. This is what people see at the grocery stores and are mainly used in mainstream cooking for example pho, goi cuon(Vietnamese summer roll), laab, bahn xeo, khao poon, bun bo hue, salsa dips etc as garnishes or added flavor. The second stage is when the coriander plant starts to flower and produces green seeds. The white flowers looks like Queen Ann laces. At this stage, the coriander is very strong in fragrance. Some people who are not use to this fragrance won't appreciate the strong flavor but it is used very often in Hmong cooking especially meshing it with the fresh chili and often times with fresh sour cherry tomatoes. The third stage is when the seeds become mature and turns brown. At this stage, the brown seeds are harvested for next season's planting or can be roasted, grinded, or grounded and added to curry dishes whether Indian,Thai cuisine or any other cuisine so long as the chef is comfortable using it in their respective dishes. My 91 year old mother still cooks like this. She has her garden and each summer, she grows the same exact green beans from your video, picks the pumpkin tips, picks the bitter vegetable and cook it in that very simple style. She picks the lace coriander flowers and seeds along with the fresh chilies from the chili plants to make the chili dish to go with her food. She has introduced this type of food to my husband who is Vietnamese. Being a physician, he really appreciates how good and healthy the simple Hmong dishes are. My mother is just like this lady, whenever we have friends over for a visit, they never leave empty handed. Everyone is given a bag full of various vegetables, beans, and herbs( cilantro, green onions, and fresh lemongrass) from her garden.

    5:24 "ntxis taub" mean "nip [of the] squash/pumpkin [vine]"
    "taub" means squash/pumpkin
    6:12 "zaug ab" means bitter veges
    8:03 "Hwj Txob" is black pepper and "Kua Txob" is pepper
    9:15 those are cilantro/coriander when it's at the stage of bearing seeds - for some reason, the coriander that planted by Hmong people has a certain smell when it reaches that stage and I don't like it
    10:30 Hmong people eat sticky rice during the New Year and during the New Year there is a totally different type of rice and we called "New Year rice", i would say that 1/100 of the rice planted in a year is sticky rice and the 99/100 are regular rice
    here's a fun fact about pronouncing "Hmong," in the US there are the Green and White dialect (that family speaks the Green dialect)
    Green: pronounce "Hmong" as "Mong" (Hmoob - Moob)
    White: they breathe through their nose at the same time when they say "Hmong"

      Wonderful, I love coconut its refreshing (I make coconut cream with rice at home, delicious)!! Also some Asian/Pacific Islanders cook seaweed as a salad, and you can mix it with other spices and chili oil and combine with other ingredients, I'd say vegetarian food comes from both the land and the ocean (^__^) previews.123rf.com/images/svetazarzamora/svetazarzamora1704/svetazarzamora170400079/75481113-hawaiian-salmon-poke-bowl-with-seaweed-watermelon-radish-cucumber-pineapple-and-sesame-seeds-copy-sp.jpg

      @@BigOnSpiceMarkWiens it’s not confetti coriander. The coriander you experienced are from a normal coriander plant at a more developed stage after the young leaves have grown and are starting bolt in order to flower. My favorite way to make the same chili sauce you ate is with an older coriander plant indeed! Super fragrant.

    Love how you include every ethnic/minority groups living in Thailand. A typical Hmong meal isn't complete without the bland vegetable soup dish.
    I love eating that combination of the pepper with just plain sticky rice. The cilantro at the flowering stage has stronger and best taste. I love the pumpkin vine soup dish too. Try it with some pumpkin blossoms and oyster mushrooms also add lemongrass, it's awesome flavor.

    Its just mature coriander. Before it starts producing seeds and even when it has seed pods which are green, you can eat it. The more mature it is the flavour seems to intensify and its incredible with fresh chili like that.

    • @sengcha6853
      @sengcha6853 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I was going to say the same thing. A comment above said it was a wild dill but I believe its just the older coriander. I used to hate the herb at this stage in development, I prefer the younger leaves and stem, but definitely the more mature leaves and stem has a lot more flavor and a pungent smell
