March-Newsletter Young Adults in Global Mission 2016-2017 Living and Laughing in Kampong Chhnang, Cambodia Contact: [email protected] Blog: http://savannahyagm.wordpress.com Every day Buddhist monks in Cambodia receive their meals from the generosity of those in their community. Here are two young monks out collecting their lunch for the day. Khmer Kitchen Riddles with Sarun: This one might not be possible to try on your own My supervisor told me that my newsletters needed more jokes because it is a long process but it was pointed out to me and riddles, and so here is riddle from Sarun himself: that if I am going to share Khmer recipes then I have to There was once a man who lived in Phnom Penh. He was very rich include the Khmer staple, Prahok/ (sometimes ្បហុក and owned a great big home in the city with many hired assistants referred to Khmer Cheese). As Sarun explained to me, to care for him, including several guards who looked after his Prahok was originally created as a way to preserve fish home. For his job the man was often required to go on business during the months where fish was not as readily trips to other countries and one week he booked a ticket to fly to available, but today it is used more as a sort of condiment China for an important meeting. The morning of his trip, however, to supplement many other Khmer dishes. While there are one of his guards came to him and explained that the night before, many variations to this dish, here is the general process of while on duty, he had a dream in which the plane that the rich making it explained to me by my coworker Veary! man was going to take crashed on it’s way to China. The guard warned his boss that he should listen to the dream and delay his Step one is to descale the small fish you will be using, journey. Persuaded by the seriousness of what the guard had to clean them and leave them in a bucket of water to soak say, the rich man took his advice and did not go to the airport as overnight. This causes the fish to swell. The next day you planned. Sure enough, hours later the news reported that the very remove the fish from the water and leave them out to dry flight the man had been booked for had crashed before reaching for another day. After the drying is complete the fish are its destination. Filled with shock and gratitude, the rich man went covered in salt, mixed together and put in a basket or jar to his guard, thanking him and telling him that as a reward he overnight. During this stage the extra liquid that comes would give him anything he desired. The guard, who was a humble from the fish is collected, boiled, mixed with seasonings man, simply asked for $10, 000, just enough money to build he and and turned into fish sauce. After the juices are extracted his family a new home. The rich man was surprised and repeated the fish is returned to the container, covered with more that he could have anything he wanted, but the guard assured him salt and left to ferment. Veary said that many sellers only that a new home was all he desired. The rich man agreed, thanking leave it for a month but for best results it should be left his guard profusely and sending him home with his reward for a year or more. Once completed, the Brahok can be money. However, as the guard left with his prize, the rich man in cooked a number of different ways and combined with his parting words informed his guard that, despite his gratitude, many other foods! the man must never return to work for him again.

  • Chin-Su Yod Thong Fish Sauce – Taking an Authentic National Flavor Global
    zz1 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Chin-su Yod Thong Fish Sauce – Taking an Authentic National Flavor Global Bangkok, September 27, 2016 – Masan Group Corporation (HOSE: MSN, “Masan”) and its strategic partner Singha Asia Holding Pte Ltd (“Singha”) will officially introduce a new product, Chin-Su Yod Thong fish sauce, to the Thailand market through an event titled “First Small Step To Serve 250 Million In-land ASEAN Consumers”. The launch event of Chin-su Yod Thong fish sauce is not only a remarkable milestone for the strategic partnership between Vietnam and Thailand’s leading food and beverage companies, but is also the first small step in a journey to globally advocate Eastern food culture with fish sauce at its core. Masan believes that the new product is well positioned to win in a fast developing region. “Nuoc mam”, “nampla”, “ngan bya yay”, “prahok” or “padek” is an essential condiment that is consumed with meals on a daily basis by the people of Vietnam, Thailand, Myanmar, Cambodia and Laos. Vietnam, as well as Thailand, is globally recognized as the cradle of fish sauce, where it was created and gradually perfected. Furthermore, Vietnamese and Thai cuisines, while varying in cooking methods and tastes, share fish sauce as a staple seasoning product. At the core of fish sauce is a beautiful story of heritage and gastronomy that touches the lives of people in Vietnam and Inland ASEAN, a story that can be proudly shared with the rest of the world and that is uniquely compelling such as Japanese soy sauce, Indian curry, American ketchup and European cheese.

    World Day for Cultural Diversity Prahok ktiss (pork belly with fermented fish) With many thanks to the team at International Development Enterprises, Cambodia, for sharing this recipe and background. Prahok ktiss (image credit: International Development Enterprises). Prahok Ktiss is a very old, traditional recipe using prahok, a fermented salted fish paste which has been eaten by Cambodians almost every day. In fact, our diet is made up of over two thirds of fish and Prahok is a fermentation method to preserve fish even though it has a strong rich smell of rotten fish, but this smell is very well associated with Cambodia. Another main ingredient in this dish is Kroeung, a yellow curry-like paste which is made out of the combination of lemongrass, garlic, turmeric, shallot, galangal, makrut lime leaves, and red chilli. Kroeung has been used in many Cambodian dishes, we even use the ingredients in it for hot compress massage and believe it has benefits for our health as well. Recipe: Ingredients: • 150 g pork belly • 50 g prahok (fermented salted fish) • 2 garlic cloves, crushed www.mecs.org.uk For the sauce: • ½ red pepper, pounded to a paste • 2 garlic cloves, crushed • 20 g palm sugar • 125 ml (½ cup) coconut milk • 10 miniature eggplant or one small chopped eggplant (optional) • 2 makrut lime leaves, shredded • Splash vegetable oil For the Kroeung paste: • 1 stalk lemongrass, thinly sliced • 2 large garlic cloves, coarsely chopped • 1 small shallot, coarsely chopped • ½ tsp galangal, peeled, coarsely chopped • 3 makrut lime leaves, de-veined • ½ tsp turmeric, peeled, chopped • 1 chilli, chopped, seeded (optional) Method: • Using two knives or cleavers, finely chop the pork belly, prahok and two garlic cloves.

  • On the Origins, Diffusion and Cultural Context of Fermented Fish Products in Southeast Asia Kenneth Ruddle Naomichi Ishige
    On the Origins, Diffusion and Cultural Context of Fermented Fish Products in Southeast Asia Kenneth Ruddle Naomichi Ishige Abstract A basic reconstruction is made of the origin and diffusion of fermented fish products in East Asia by combining information on the history of human migrations, cultural borrowing and ethno-linguistics. It is assumed that (1) simple shiokara was the prototypical fermented fish product from which the others were elaborated independently; (2) fish preservation was needed only in areas of pronounced seasonality of local fish availability; (3) fish fermentation developed first among sedentary farmers; (4) prior to organized commerce, fish fermentation originated and developed only where salt was easily obtained; and (5) fish fermentation developed in a focal region(s) of continental East Asia, later diffusing to peninsular and insular regions through the migration of peoples, cultural borrowing and commerce.
