Nam Prik Noom Kab Moo (Green Chilli Dip and Pork Cracklings)

This is the go-to and sure-to-please souvenir for visitors of Thailand’s north. Crispy pork cracklings (kab moo) and green chilli dip (nam prik noom) are a match made in heaven that could have you snacking on them all day long. The thick dip made with roasted green chilli peppers, garlic, shallots and cloves offers a mildly spicy palate that complements the addictive saltiness from the cracklings.

The dip also makes for a good pairing with fresh vegetables - raw or cooked.
