About The Recipe

Pork Ball Soup (Gaeng Jued) is the first soup that I learned how to make, because it’s very easy. Gaeng Jued literally means “No Taste” soup. Most Thai food has many flavors in one dish and most of the dishes have very strong tastes, but this dish is a little more delicate and light. Gaeng Jued is a great dish for eating on a cold day, and along side spicy dishes to clear your palate.
