Tom Yam is perhaps the most popular acutely sour Thai soup, which is loved not only in Asia, but also around the world. Preparing it is quite simple and fast, the main thing is just to buy all the necessary ingredients. It is believed that the classic tom yam is prepared without coconut milk, while the most popular and tasty option in our opinion is still with coconut milk. Also, traditionally, tom yam is served with boiled rice: it helps to reduce the sharpness of the soup and makes it more satisfying.
