Pla chao is Thai freshwater fish salted for two days, then packed in jars with khao mak, a sweet fermented glutinous rice. The rice brings sugar, a little alcohol and yeasts, and the mix ferments for 10 to 20 days into a sweet, sour and salty fish.

Pla chao is Thai freshwater fish salted for two days, then packed in jars with khao mak, a sweet fermented glutinous rice. The rice brings sugar, a little alcohol and yeasts, and the mix ferments for 10 to 20 days into a sweet, sour and salty fish. Made in 5 steps over 14 days – 25 days. The longest step, pack into jars and ferment, takes 10–20 days (JIRCAS 1995). Salt is 25 % (JIRCAS 1995). Pediococcus halophilus and Bacillus sp., Micrococcus sp. do most of the fermenting.
Most Thai sour fish (plaa-som, som-fak) use plain cooked rice and garlic. Pla chao uses khao mak, rice already fermented by mould and yeast, so it starts with sugar and alcohol and tastes sweet as well as sour.
