The story behind it
Where Tom Kha comes from
Tom Kha Gai literally translates to "boiled galangal with chicken." The name doesn't mention the coconut milk, but rather the root that makes it what it is.
Galangal is related to ginger, but tastes different: more resinous, more citrusy, and less spicy. It is the reason why Tom Kha doesn't taste like a ginger soup.
