Tom Yum Broth Cube—泰式酸辣湯塊

說到暹羅美食，A-Mao最愛的是泰式酸辣蝦湯（Tom Yum Goong；冬蔭功）。又香又酸又辣的，在炎熱的天氣，真的是讓人胃口大開。一日在東南亞雜貨店尋寶，竟發現跨國食品公司康寶（Knorr）在泰國有生產泰式酸辣湯塊；一盒不過10鋃，想當然、當然買了！作法為煮沸一公升的水後，丟入盒內的兩個湯塊，再依個人喜好放入海鮮、肉類、菇類與蔬菜。便宜又方便的人間美味，也是清空冰箱的好法寶喔。【冬炎汤块】

When it comes to Thai cuisine, Tom Yum Goong is A-Mao’s most beloved. When it is burning hot, this spicy, sour & aromatic soup would make you have a good appetite. One day he found this tom yum broth cube, manufactured by Knorr in Thailand, at a Southeast Asian specialty grocery store in Taiwan, and it’s cheap at 10 NTD only! Just mix 2 cubes with 1 liter of boiling water, freely add other ingredients such as shrimp, fish, clam, mushroom & vegetable, and easily serve a tasty & convenient delicacy.

タイ料理のなかに、トムヤムクン（Tom Yum Goong）はA-Maoの最愛です。天気が暑いとき、これは旺盛な食欲を提供。東南アジア食材屋で、A-Maoは「トムヤムの素」を発見しました。これは有名なクノール社製ですが、とても安い（10台湾ドルだけ）！2個のキューブと1リットルの熱湯を混ぜ合わせて、自由にエビ、サカナ、野菜など好みの食材を加えて、おいしいスープは簡単に完成されました。

Megachef's Fish Sauce—百萬主廚的魚露

During Ultracker's 2008 company travel in Thailand, A-Mao started sampling fish sauce on most tables we sat at. In the beginning, its slightly stinking smell somewhat scared me. After a few ice-breaking tests, I noticed that its aroma & taste is so lovely! At a supermarket in Pattaya, this Megachef Premium Fish Sauce is the most expensive one but costs just 17 Baht for a 200cc glass bottle. And I took three! In my home, I like to scald some water spinach, chop a little chili and mix them with the fish sauce only. Um......I seemed to be in the Thai sunlight again.

話說08年，艾創到泰國員工旅遊，懼怕魚腥味A-Mao，開始嘗試幾乎餐餐都有的魚露。一開始，還真是覺得有點臭臭的；但是到後來，深深愛上它而不可自拔。在芭達雅的一家超市內，最最昂貴的Megachef Premium Fish Sauce（百萬主廚優質魚露），200cc玻璃瓶裝也才17泰鋃而已；沒想太多，帶走三瓶。現在在家，我喜歡燙些空心菜、切條小辣椒、再加些這百萬主廚級的魚露攪拌……嗯！感覺好像又來到泰國的陽光下。【 百万主厨优质鱼露】
