Sai Oua \u2013 Sausage from Laos<\/h3>
Pane-Bistecca<\/div><\/div>\n
\n Sai Oua \u2013 sausage from Laos is completely different from the sausages we know in Europe. Here, a kind of curry sauce is mixed in, giving the sausage a very spicy flavor.

\n Sai oua, also spelled Sai Ua, is a popular sausage from Luang Prabang, Laos, and northern Thailand, especially Chiang Mai. Sai oua is an old Laotian word for sausage. The name is an old compound term in Laotian and literally means \u201cstuffed intestine\u201d: sai (\u0ec4\u0eaa\u0ec9) from \u2018intestine\u2019 and oua (\u0ead\u0ebb\u0ea7\/\u0ead\u0eb1\u0ec8\u0ea7) means \u201cstuffed.\u201d It is a staple food in Laos.

\nIt used to be prepared at home, but today it is widely available in markets and shops, making it accessible to locals and tourists alike.\nThe bold combination of herbs, spices, and pork makes sai oua a fragrant, spicy, and savory sausage that is symbolic of the cuisine of North-Southeast Asia.\n

\nThe spicy sausage originated in Luang Prabang, Laos. Luang Prabang was once the royal capital and center of power of the Lan Xang Kingdom (1353\u20131707). The ancient city of Luang Prabang is considered the cradle of Laotian culture and cuisine. At the height of its power, Luang Prabang’s influence stretched from the borders of Sipsongpanna (China) to Steung Treng (Cambodia), from the eastern border along the Annamite Range with Vietnam to the western border of the Khorat Plateau (northeastern Thailand) and its sister kingdom Lan Na.\n
