Instructions

Mixing:

  • Mixing should be done in Bjorn or other Varimixer

Instruction, pulled

  • Mix all the dry ingredients
  • Add the remaining ingredients and start mixing
  • Knead on high speed, about 5 minutes until a tough and stringy texture is obtained
  • Take out about 1.5 kg of kneaded dough and flatten it into a rectangle the size of an oven tray
  • Roll up from the short side (as you would when rolling a bun dough) quite compactly until you get the shape of a loaf
  • Place on greased tray
  • Tempa in the oven at 110 degrees, 50% moisture to 88 degrees internal temperature
  • Leave to cool overnight
  • Cut the "loaves" lengthwise, and about 10 cm thick
  • Grate the pieces in a Bear or Varimixer by using the wing and "tearing" on high speed. Run until you get the desired size of the pieces

Direction, Tom Ka Gai

  • Crush the root of the lemongrass with the handle of the knife.
  • Sauté the onion, garlic, chili and lemongrass in the oil.
  • Add the Pulled Simsu, fish sauce, sugar, ginger, lime leaves, water, vegetable broth and coconut milk.
  • Cook slowly for about 10 minutes. Season to taste with squeezed lime juice.
  • Add the spring onions and mushrooms and simmer for a few more minutes.
  • Lift out the lemongrass.
  • Serve the soup in warm bowls and sprinkle with coriander.
