Surin, Take you to Surin to eat Khanom Jeen with crab curry made by a 66 year old grandmother. It’s not expensive, just 20 baht. Customers love it, they finish a pot every day.

Grandma Phichit Srikaew or Grandma Thom, 66 years old, Ban Sangkae, Tael Subdistrict, Sikhoraphum District, Surin Province, spends her free time cooking food to sell within the village. Along with bringing the idea of ??using rice crab to make khanom jeen liquid for customers in the village. Lots of customers ordering Barely able to deliver and sell in time Because it’s not expensive, selling for 20 baht per bag, adding a plate is also 20 baht. Villagers come to support us every day, there’s hardly enough to sell.

My 22-year-old niece told me that I once told Grandma Thom to stay home. Don’t have to do anything. The grandchildren gave it to them to eat and use. It wasn’t difficult, but Grandma wanted to do it, so she did what she wanted. The things she invested in brought a profit of only a few baht. 5-10 kilograms of khanom jeen a
day. They sold it all and got a profit of about 200-300 baht. Grandma never complained, whether it was a loss or a profit. Wake up early and sit and scrape coconuts to make khanom jeen liquid.

Grandma Thom said that every day she doesn’t know what to do. Nowadays, rice is famine and expensive. If we sit and wait to open our hands to receive from our children and grandchildren, we can’t handle it. Our hearts want to do it. As for the crab curry paste, I thought of making it myself. Before, I only made jungle liquid and chicken liquid. But it was seen that during the rice harvest Villagers dig rice crabs to sell. The crab during this time will be very oily. So he tried using rice crab to make a solution. Customers respond well Until I could barely make it in time.
