Sai Krok Isan
ไส้กรอกอีสาน
Medium-Mild
Sai Krok Isan is a fermented pork sausage from northeastern Thailand — soured naturally over several days, then grilled until the skin blisters, developing a delightfully tangy, porky flavour.
Key Ingredients
- ground pork
- cooked rice
- garlic
- salt
- pork intestine casing
Where to Try It
Isaan markets and street stalls throughout Thailand; very popular at fresh morning markets.
Tips
- Eat with raw cabbage leaves, ginger slices, and bird's eye chilli alongside — the cooling vegetables balance the sour pork beautifully.
