Question about Thai dessert
1. What is the most popular dessert? 2. How much does it? 3. Sticky rice with mango is famous in Thailand? 4. How often do thai people eat it? 5. Do thai people cook it?
To the best of our knowledge, the most popular dessert in Thailand varies according to occations. In Thai ceremonies, we prefer Thai dessert which uses egg and sugar as main ingredients. However, for Thai teenager, they love to eat out and find some dessert like ice-cream, doughnut, cookies, and things. I hope I can give you a clearer picture about Thai dessert, eh?
Sticky rice and mango is somewhat rarely found in day-to-day life. It depends on the season, though. We will have such thing in April to August I think.
I am so sorry for the late reply. We are in the mid-term examination period. Some of the dessert names used in ceremony are "Foy Thong", "Tuay Fou", "Thong yipp" etc. The word "Thong" in Thai means gold. Therefore, we believe that if we use this kind of dessert in a ceremony, it represents prosperity and good luck.
"Khao Niao Ma Muang" means sticky rice with mango in Thai. Ofcourse it's very famous in Thailand. We eat it in summer. These are tasty and sweet. The mango flesh should be bright and yellow. Serve on dish with sticky rice and sweet coconut topping. Pour in rest of the coconut milk and stir. I think you should try this once.
There are several well-known Thai desserts from each part of Thailand, for example, desserts that have meaningful name, desserts that are used in great ceremony, etc. Egg yolk, fresh coconut milk, sugar, rice flour, and sesame are commonly used as the main ingredients of making Thai desserts. Moreover, sometimes Thai people use jasmine in order to give good smell to the dessert. I would recommend the Thai Auspicious Desserts, which are the desserts that usually used in great ceremony, such as Thai traditional wedding. In these ceremonies, we can use only the one that give a meaningful and beautiful name, for instant, Foy Thong which means long lasting love and good fortune.
The name of Thai Auspicious Desserts "Thong Yip", "Thong Yod", "Foy Thong", "Sa Neh Chan", "Med Kha Noon", "Thong Ake", "Look Choop", "Khanom Chan" or Thai Layer Cake and "Jah Mongkut".
Dessert's name means for example
"Thong Yip" If it's good Thong Yip will never smell of yolks or eggs and it has sweet taste.
"Thong Yod" means continuous wealth because it means gold drop continuously equal to getting richer and sustain wealth.
"Sa Neh Chan" means charming, loving and attractive by senior or even lover.
"Med Kha Noon" means you will get supported by the other people. Because the word "Noon" in Thai means support to success.
"Khanom Chan" means advancement in career and continual success.
