The story behind it
Where Narok comes from
"Narok" is the Thai word for hell. The name is not a marketing invention, but the standard term for a chili paste that takes no prisoners.
Dried shrimp provide the saltiness, and the high chili content provides the rest. It is traditionally eaten with sticky rice and raw vegetables—both of which also serve as a fire extinguisher.
