Even though it’s only 4 months old, and has a long way to go before being ready for tasting/consumption, I think it’s right on track.
Overall, I was very happy with the state of the padaek and it’s aroma. If I may (without getting too carried away), it seems that I could almost smell the taste/flavour of the padaek – ie, slightly sharp/pronounced salty/umami/fishy smell.
My partner described the smell as being “yeasty”, similar to beer and bread. There wasn’t an explosion of strong overpowering/unbearable smell erupting from the jar – instead, at closer inspection/sniff, I noticed the trademark “padaek” fish smell – similar to normal fish sauce, and not yet intense or pungent. smile Today, after staring at the jar for a while, it occurred to me that the layers, shapes and colours of the padaek also look very similar to the pics I’ve seen of the atmosphere of Jupiter, although without as much chaos/turbulence/ferment happening.Īnyhow, I opened the lid today, and to my surprise, the smell/aroma of the padaek was very pleasant and sweet. I once mentioned that the colours and layers of the padaek reminded me of a sedimentary rock formation, and also of an ant farm. As a result, and as promised, this time round – I’ve decided to open up the jar to inspect it further and to remove the cling wrap and zip-lock bag/stone from inside the jar, and also give it a helping hand (with a pair of metal tongs). To get straight to the point – it comes as no surprise that the padaek has remained virtually unchanged/stagnant since the last update (again). You’re probably just thinking I’m a batty old man, which is only partially true.Īnyhow – we’re gathered here today to witness another update of our much beloved padaek. Believe you I young ones – spend your time wisely and productively, and spend more time with your folks and always be good to them, because time waits for no one and it can not be turned back, as alluring as 1may be. Yes, it’s hard to believe isn’t it, that we’re already in May? Far out, and the older we get, the faster time flies by.
