LAO  MUDDLED LONG BEAN SALAD -This salad packs  a punch. It’s pounded with salted black river crab (a Lao delicacy), fish sauce, Pladek fermented fish, shrimp paste, dried Thai chilies, tamarind, tomatoes , & lime. This salad is still balanced & refreshing, but it’s definitely funkier & spicier than the Thai-style. I didn't mind the flavors and funky flavors...what I didn't like werr the beans. They were too rubbery!
