Well, there you go . . . I love the stuff; most of it anyway.

Not too keen on that strong-smelling fishy liquor that some som-tum makers use too much of, though. Otherwise . . . bring it on!

 I love the stinky fish sauce and salted crabs in som-tum.

Last nights evening meal the classic Pad - beans on toast.  Some habits are hard to forget. My wife's favourite Thai food is chickens feet, I usually leave the table when she is munching thru a plate of those.

You've always got to have a few tines of beans in the house

I always make sure that I eat Sator when my wife does...

😀

Also spelled 'sataw'.   It is known as 'stink bean' for very good reason and we love them!  My wife buys wholesale from Chumpon and shares 5kg around among friends with any excess going in freezer .... if not already consumed raw or cooked in stir-fry.

Always get a great nights sleep after eating them.

The errm...other effect...I won't mention...555

Do you, or anyone know what the chemical in Sator is that promotes such a good sleep?

Apart from other nutritional benefits and some smelly side effects: "beans are rich in fibre, iron, potassium and tryptophan — an amino acid that may help boost mood and sleep"

I am with you on that as I think to chew on grizzle is hardly enjoyable. However surprisingly there are apparently some benefits

I have eaten them many times and it is sometimes a thing made in my house. But for me, give me the choice of rice field rat or chickens feet, and hands down it is rice field rat by the long win. Just don't get the why out of that one.
