You'll learn the art of balancing the four core flavors – sweet, sour, salty, and spicy – that are paramount in Cambodian cuisine. Discover how to properly prepare and utilize aromatic ingredients like lemongrass, galangal, kaffir lime leaves, and turmeric. The experience of creating your own kroeung using a traditional mortar and pestle is a highlight, connecting you directly to ancient Cambodian culinary practices.
