One thing I didn't mention is the use of fermented shrimp paste (kapi shrimp paste) in place of the dried shrimp. Using them are optional, but I like to add one or the other. I'll probably update that post soon.

Definitely worth trying if you haven't.<br /><br />Leela, my mom used to make me do the chop-chop with the papaya, then complain I didn't get consistent strands. Many thanks to the person who invented this shredder!<br /><br />qgirl, you life will change once you get your hands on this shredder. It's good for green mangoes, thick carrots, jicama, you name it!Deehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16766537792847654183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4576927653874971703.post-18333973908067946472009-05-08T12:10:00.000-07:002009-05-08T12:10:00.000-07:00I'm going to look for that Kiwi shredder.
