Goong Ten (Raw Shrimp Salad)
Goong ten (Thai:กุ้งเต้น, Dancing Shrimp Salad) is a popular dish in Northeast Thailand and Laos. It consists of fresh raw shrimp in spicy sauce with fresh herbs, and it can be found at E-san restaurants or in fresh markets. Goong ten is still not accepted by some people because it is eaten while the shrimp are still alive. Nowadays, most people freeze the shrimp in ice or put them in cold water before preparing them.
