• There are lots of salads that are raw in Thailand, my favorite was the papaya salad. Sometimes they put shrimp in it, so make sure you ask first (and the peanuts might be roasted). I also ate seaweed salad, yumm and other kinds of veg salads. Apart …

• ras-saadon, just cover it with a clean cloth and leave it on top of something, I usually leave it on my dehydrator when it’s on. Ferments pretty fast. By the way, has anyone ever tried to add Irish moss to cheese for consistency?
