เส้นหมี่ต้มยำ

Origin

Som tam yam noodles are inspired by traditional Thai cuisine, particularly tom yum goong, which originated in central Thailand. The dish evolved due to consumer demand for quick yet delicious meals, replacing steamed rice or rice noodles with thin vermicelli. It has become popular at street food stalls and casual eateries.

Characteristics and Flavor

Som tam yam noodles feature soft white vermicelli served in a rich, aromatic tom yum broth infused with the fragrances of black pepper, lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, and lime juice. The flavor profile is uniquely balanced—sour, spicy, salty, and sweet—all harmoniously blended. The broth has a slightly thick consistency from coconut milk or chicken bone stock, giving a comforting warmth to the stomach.

Ingredients

Thin vermicelli, fresh shrimp, chicken bone broth, lime juice, lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, bird’s eye chili, seasoning sauce, fish sauce, granulated sugar, fried shallots, fresh coriander.

Serving Method

Serve hot in a large bowl, thoroughly mixing the noodles with the broth. Enjoy with fresh vegetables such as bean sprouts and pickled mustard greens, garnished with fresh coriander. Consume immediately after preparation to fully experience its authentic taste.
