Synopsis | Everyone growing up in Thailand would have tasted 'kapi' in one form or another. The most common dish made from kapi, well known to all Thais, is 'nam prik' (a kapi-based dipping sauce). Kapi can be found in any Thai kitchen, in an unassuming plastic jar. Little did we know that each jar had its own story, until we visited the places and met the people who make them. The essay captures what we learned about kapi during the DFM field research in Thailand in 2020-2021. |
