Dark soy (in Thai, siu-dahm) is opaque, black, and viscous. The most prominent characteristic is the dark color and the taste of palm sugar molasses (when the sweetness is removed from palm sugar, the remaining molasses is added to this soy sauce to create a very unique, wonderful flavor). Not nearly as sweet as sweet soy.

Pork Leg on Rice, 'Khao Kha Moo'

Khao Kha Moo is not only a favorite of Thailand's Prime Minister (a celebrity chef), it's also one of those ubiquitous dishes served by street vendors throughout Thailand. If you think it's hard to make at home--it's not! The recipe below makes a wonderful khao kha moo but be sure you get the right piece of meat. Ask a butcher for a pork shank, fresh. You must get it "fresh" which means it has not been cured or smoked. Even if it's frozen that's fine just state "fresh" to denote that you don't want it already smoked or cured. Hock (cut from the shoulder) is also a cut that works fine. Try to get a front leg, as the back legs contain more fat and less meat.
