We're still working our way through a week of post-thanksgiving leftover turkey recipes. This time we turn to Thailand to make a turk-ified version of one of my favorite soups of all time: Tom Yum Nam Khon, the creamy version of Thailand’s classic hot-and-sour Tom Yum soup. Despite its complex flavors, Tom Yum is an incredible fast and simple soup to make. Watch this video ad-free and get the full article and recipe by becoming a Super Frienji of Kenji.
