Nam Prik are the essential chili dips that anchor every traditional Northern Thai meal. Nam Prik Ong is a mild tomato-based dip with minced pork resembling a local Bolognese. Nam Prik Noom is made from roasted long green chilies, shallots, and garlic providing smoky heat. Both versions are eaten by scooping them up with sticky rice and blanched vegetables. They are the perfect introduction to the complex flavor profiles of the region.
