Nong's Khao Man Gai Sauce, 12oz

Originally from Bangkok, Thailand, Nong moved to Portland in 2003 with $70 and two suitcases. Shortly after, she opened a small food cart designed to sell just one thing: Khao Man Gai. This traditional Thai chicken dish consists of poached chicken with Thai aromatics, rice and broth - it is served with a sauce made from fermented soy bean puree and mixed with garlic, ginger, thai chilies, vinegar and sugar. Garnished with a few pieces of cucumber & cilantro, it is a Thai staple. This is her handmade sauce, and the only sauce you can use to replicate this amazing dish. Its use does not stop there, though. It is also great as a marinade or a sauce with chicken, pork or fish.
