Thong Yot (Golden Drop Sweets)

À Propos de Ce Plat

Smooth golden egg yolk drops poached in fragrant sugar syrup, served in small cups made from the same syrup. Along with foy thong and thong yip, these form the classic "three golds" of Thai royal desserts. All three were adapted from Portuguese confectionery techniques introduced to the Siamese court in the 17th century by Marie Guimar, a woman of mixed Portuguese-Japanese-Bengali descent.
