Tom Yum Kung originated from Thailand and has two meanings.
One: Tom Yum Kung means "guardian".
In ancient Thailand, the king usually sat on the back of an elephant, and there were four warriors around the king to protect him.
Legend has it that these people were so brave that they were called guardians, which was later known as Tom Yum Kung.
Second: Tom Yum Kung is also the national soup of Thailand, also called Tom Yum Kung Soup.
"Tom Yum" means sour and spicy, and "Gong" actually means shrimp when translated into Chinese, which actually means hot and sour shrimp soup.
However, Tom Yum Goong soup is very spicy and contains a lot of curry. It is difficult to accept it at first, but once you get used to it, you will become addicted to it.
: The ingredients of Tom Yum Goong soup include licorice, lemon, shallots, pepper, fish sauce, etc., coupled with various seafood, and placed on the Jinding charcoal stove, giving people a solemn and solemn feeling.
After tasting the soup, you will be hit by a strange and spicy taste. After tasting it many times, you will find that in addition to the original sourness and spiciness, there is also some sweetness of seafood, and there is a hint of freshness on top of the sourness and spiciness.
At this time, people will slowly break out into a slight sweat and feel comfortable all over.
