what is larb? || my childhood foods

hmong chicken laab ~

Growing up in a Hmong household, this dish was a meal that I ate often. It’s salty, tangy, spicy and so so fresh from the mix of herbs.

📝 grocery list
chicken breast + cutlet
garlic
limes
fish sauce
toasted rice powder
dried chili pepper
lemongrass
shallots
mint + cilantro
thai chili pepper 🥵
lettuce + sticky rice to serve

Laab has several spelling variations (larb, laap, larp) but it’s pronounced “laahp” with a soft h. I call this Hmong food, but others may know it as Thai or Laotian food because each culture shares this dish as their own. Thailand and Laos border each other and Hmong people originate from Laos. So, this makes sense as to why our cuisine is so similar.

Hope you like this recipe ^^
