Pak sian dong is a sour Thai pickle of spider plant leaves and shoots (Cleome gynandra). The greens are wilted in the sun, mixed with a little salt and cooked rice, and weighted under their own brine in the shade for a few days while lactic acid bacteria sour them.

Pak sian dong is a sour Thai pickle of spider plant leaves and shoots (Cleome gynandra). The greens are wilted in the sun, mixed with a little salt and cooked rice, and weighted under their own brine in the shade for a few days while lactic acid bacteria sour them. Made in 4 steps over 2 days – 7.1 days. The longest step, ferment in the shade, takes 2–7 days (JIRCAS Database of Fermented Foods of Thailan…). Salt is 2–4 % (JIRCAS Database of Fermented Foods of Thailan…). Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and Pediococcus pentosaceus do most of the fermenting.
Pak sian dong is soured with a little cooked rice as extra sugar for the bacteria, like other Thai pak dong pickles, but its base is a wild spider plant and it keeps only about two weeks.
Koch Cha Sarn Journal of Science (2021) lists pickled vegetables (som phak to the Thai-Lao, chu to the Thai-Khmer) among eight fermented foods found in both ethnic groups in border villages of Surin province, and names pak sian among the vegetables both groups pickle. Makers in both groups say they inherited the method from their ancestors and passed it to their children. The paper says the Thai-Khmer only salt-pickle and add rice-washing water the day before eating, while the Thai-Lao make salted and sweet pickles and do not add rice-washing water [trongjit2020].
