Story of Pad Thai
During World War II, Thailand suffered a rice shortage due to the war and floods.
To reduce domestic rice consumption, the Thai government under Prime Minister
Plaek Phibunsongkhram promoted consumption of noodles instead. His government promoted
rice noodles and helped to establish the identity of Thailand. As a result, a new noodle called
sen chan (named after Chanthaburi Province) was created.
Pad thai has since become one of Thailand's national dishes
Pad thai is made of rice noodles, which are stir-fried with tamarind sauce, eggs, bean sprouts,
garlic chives and spring onion. served with lime wedges and chopped roasted peanuts.
