Another auspicious Thai dessert Khanom Tom is an old traditional sweet that is made of boiled rice flour dumplings stuffed with shredded coconut melted with palm sugar and coconut milk and rolled in more shredded coconut to become a pretty ball of coconutty goodness.
The coconut filling is often infused with a flower fragrance by using scented candles, while pandan leaves or butterfly pea extract, are often added to the dough for colour, fragrance, and flavour.
Khanom Tom dates back to the Kingdom of Sukhothai in north central Thailand about 2 hours drive from my home village. The Kingdom existed from 1238 until 1438....
It’s a wonderful feeling to know that this simple and delicious dessert is still loved throughout Thailand and much of South East Asia more than 600 years after it’s beginning
