Rare card · No. 58875

Khao soi or khao soy (Thai: ข้าวซอย, pronounced [kʰâ(ː)w sɔ̄ːj]; Northern Thai: ᩮᨡᩢ᩶ᩣᨪᩬ᩠ᨿ, pronounced [kʰa᷇(ː)w sɔ̄ːj]; Lao: ເຂົ້າຊອຍ, pronounced [kʰȁ(ː)w sɔ́ːj]; Shan: ၶဝ်ႈသွႆး, pronounced [kʰaw˧˧˨.sʰɔj˥]; Burmese: အုန်းနို့ခေါက်ဆွဲ, pronounced [ʔóʊɴ no̰ kʰaʊʔ sʰwɛ́]) is a dish served in Northern Thailand. The dish is believed to have evolved from Chin Haw Muslim traders who plied the spice route when what is now modern-day northern Thailand was controlled by the Burmese. A comparable dish, ohn no khao swè, is widely served in Myanmar, most likely the precursor of khao soi. Traditionally, the dough for the wheat noodles is spread out on a cloth stretched over boiling water. After steaming, the sheet noodles are rolled and cut with scissors.
