- Comments: The Lao women which I used to work with in Toronto made this salad for lunch. As the salad was tossed, they would lightly squeeze the ingredients together, that would infuse the dressing into the lettuce and give is a softer texture. One of them called it "Diet Salad". When I asked why, she said which it was because it was eaten with meat as an alternative to rice. I guess she was on to something!
- Fish sauce is the salty liquid condiment used extensively in Southeast Asian cooking. Well stocked grocery stores and Oriental supermarkets carry it, but you can use salt in its place.
