Just me having fun with the sad sacks of craigslist M4W in Washington, DC.

I am Ngapi-Jaw

I think I need a new schtick...

I am Ngapi-Jaw

I am a stir fried concoction containing chiles, garlic, onions, dried shrimp and fermented shrimp paste.
You make the paste with a barrel of dead fish and salt and let it set in the sun.
Now and then you press a board down on the stuff and collect the goo that comes out.
In Thailand I'm known as Kapi and in Indonesia I'm known as Blachan.
While you're making me, your house will reek of dead and rotting fish.

Don't ask me to change, I am after all, Ngapi-Jaw.
