Chef Tips

- Amasse levemente os talos de capim-limão com as costas da faca antes de picar para liberar mais essência no caldo. - Rasgue as folhas de limão kaffir com as mãos, retirando a nervura central mais amarga antes de levar à panela. - Acrescente umas gotas de suco de limão fresco e folhas de coentro no instante final para realçar notas cítricas.

Variations

- Tom Yum Gai (com frango): troque os camarões por peito de frango em cubos pequenos cozidos no caldo aromatizado. - Tom Yum cremoso: adicione meia xícara de leite de coco integral ao caldo para suavizar a pimenta e dar cremosidade. - Versão vegetariana: use caldo de legumes caseiro, cogumelos shimeji e shiitake com cubos de tofu firme no lugar do camarão.

Substitutions

- Shrimp: can be replaced by thin strips of chicken breast, squid rings, or cubes of firm white fish. - Kaffir lime leaves: use fine lemon zest or fresh washed lime leaves. - Tamarind paste: use diluted natural tamarind pulp or combine lemon juice with a pinch of brown sugar.

How to Store

Keep the soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat over low heat just until it comes to a gentle simmer to avoid toughening the already cooked shrimp.

Can You Freeze It?

Não recomendamos congelar o prato finalizado com os camarões, pois os crustáceos perdem água e ficam fibrosos no degelo. Congele apenas a base do caldo aromatizado com as ervas por até 60 dias.

What to Serve With

Serve traditionally accompanied by a bowl of jasmine rice or fluffy steamed white rice to balance the seasoning. Iced lemongrass tea or sparkling mineral water pair perfectly.
