Kambozhdiyskoe treat

Writes harald: with food in Cambodia, by the way - a full order. The sea across the southern part of the country, the largest lake in Southeast Asia, Tonle Sap and deep rivers - angling on the shore is the number of fish and other aquatic reptiles that sin not to use. Locals all this wealth will gladly eat and tsedyat in kindergarten you know who - and bescheshuychatoe razdvoekopytnoe from the rest, and burst everything. And what in Cambodia svenina. You know what svenina here? I take it up, and it is already "breathe"! The fresh smell of kebab and has requested that soon thrown on the grill, or strung on a skewer - fresh, sweet and very juicy. Chances are the local pig feed young pigs and cats can be. Not for nothing because in Cambodia so many dogs and cats just two handful.

With products, with the exception perhaps of all Milk - there is also a full order. It is enough to go to the market to quickly pick up products to find your favorite burgers, pyureshechku or even cook a full Ukrainian borscht. But on a Thai spicy soup Tom Yam enough, and you go, Well boil a good Tom Yam after visiting Dorogomilovsky?

Kitchen Cambodia tasty unlike Thai, most of which is an excerpt trudnousvaivaemaya flames of hell, and from the notorious "pad-tai" begin to be hung on the third day. Unlike the Indonesian and zhizhenke fresh vegetables and herbs from the use of which almost immediately start to feel swamp toad. It is both simple and some domesticated. You can eat constantly in one place all the same fish soup or noodles in meat sauce with egg, and it does not get tired like never tire of my mother's soup and cutlets. In fact, many people do - then decided to organize evening family dining in a variety of low-cost cafeterias, instead of spending a lot of time at the stove.

All that's hedonism, gluttony - it's good. But I am often asked - is it true that in your Thailand and Cambodia these lizards still guzzle? - May devour, but not often. At least I'm sure that since Pol Pot had barely meet family for dinner was eating a bowl of ham frog, wood masks and fried water beetles. But indulge once a week so a bit of sugar under good movie - it please. And demand creates supply, it must be said - all this diversity is not common, but is found in numerous retail shelves Cambodia. Frankly to say, after 7 months of life in this country, I do not look at all these fried cockroaches and grasshoppers as exotic. I believe that it is quite tolerable snack with beer, but still the old-fashioned prefer dried fish, crab claws or dried squid, which in Cambodia is also in great abundance. Sometimes, in a package with no fish, no yes and get two or three a blacksmith, I look at this as a bonus, happy hrumkayu fried insects, starting from the head and drink a cold beer.

But there is a delicacy in Cambodia that Cambodians themselves valued as exotic and ready to go for it a lot of kilometers, spider edge. The edge of this - a small village Skuon 70 kilometers from the capital, on the road from Phnom Penh to Kampong Cham. Being the last weekend on business to "stump", I rented potoped and went alone to comprehend tops exotic cuisine of Cambodia.



Someone in the internets ponarasskazyval that highway 6A - one of the best in the country. Let your adult children have not you read any stories, when under the influence of senility you turn into a filthy fungus. Two-thirds of the way to the crossroads with the track 61 to travel on the bumpy road repair, pour over the dust clouds of clay and sand gritting the teeth.



On the way to catch up the train from schoolchildren kolyadunov. Today, the height of the Chinese New Year and the pioneers came to destroy grandmother local gas station, but povzryvat firecrackers dangerously close.



...



Finally, it is - the land and cashew helitserovyh.



Few circled the roadside market and quickly find the "point" of the sales woman holding color fortune. 4 individuals, among others - the dollar.



There is a nuance. I arachnophobia since childhood. I'm most afraid of spiders in the world. It does not all true, but big and nimble - very afraid. And then imagine rushing to me the old woman with a bucket full of enormous spiders alive with shouts of "A-PYN !, A PYN!" (As in the local called some kind of poisonous tarantula). I scream - stop! Do not come fool! I've got no eyes? I did not go up? You want the dollar and immediately?



You've heard all about the sense of horror felt by some people ?! - Only then I realize that it's all said in Russian. Gestures to the old woman to stop and put a bucket. Gently and firmly go up. Most fear - not whether to start now! "Jokes" in the spirit know, "shoulder to plant" garknut "hrrrrrr" in his ear. Meanwhile, to the bucket toddler runs and starts to poke her plump tentacles in a bucket of monsters.



Mother toddler picks up two huge specimens and puts them on the belly son. - Come on, barang dollar, the child wants ice creams.



Just look at his middle eye - as is the Cyclops!



What sting removed? Mother takes a spider in his hands and shows that everything is in place. Then nail poddevat cheliceral, alarmed by a tarantula trying to grab her finger, heard a click of a fingernail, almost bitten. Shakes hand - spider in a bucket. Complete the bite has not taken place - the experience and courage came to the rescue.



A trade pauchyatinoy happens like this: When the expensive car or a bus full of white barangay drove up to the market, with a crowd of kilograms of fried tarantulas in no time rushing to the vehicle, and crowing Gulden - yes it still sour. - For a bucket? I give less. - Oh, liquid, ruddy. - Take 5, 6 give.



What suchenysh, take pictures for Phnom Penh-post? And I'm here now two packages pauchyatiny Dial nazhrusya, and tomorrow his mares that for sewing machines sew you freaks white pants shorts yes kelvinklyan $ 2, will bring to the kennel and rods depart so that as much pomolodeyu pleasure and this is, by hormones ...

Aunt came to the expensive Lexus with a driver, bought for 10 bucks spiders and rather left in the direction of the capital. after the first smiles good-naturedly neighing, though the first photo strained in earnest.



...



Chew inside tarantula essentially nothing. Shaggy legs with streaks of meat and a little porous shell by an array of meat.



What to taste talking about? Something between a shrimp and chicken. But Arachnidian.



...



So pessimism psto. All this, of course, attraction. And in the end not the most pleasant. Trading attracts beggars are like and it is a pity, but do not want to indulge. Bender is forbidden! Beggar girl played with a spider. But let's not the same thing. Everyone chooses a childhood and Grushki such that he sees fit!



Pauchary per day in the bucket so fry that simply die. Besides the ubiquitous ants instantly stuck to perishing flesh. Woman examines the remains pauchyatiny to shake off another half-dead ant flocks and immediately catch fire.



...



This particular behave calmly, and then in two seconds was on the neck of the child. Attentive mother immediately transplanted his chubby little boy on the top of the head. And if you still bite in the neck, it's safe?

When I went to Skuon was thought to thrust with the local hunting. But when I came to look at the trade, such as the already changed his mind. Considered that the checkmark to the memoirs already have.

Do you give the terminal instruction: be in Southeast Asia - are now always look under the rim of the toilet bowl before you sit down. ALWAYS! ALWAYS! You never know what?
