Lahpet (လက်ဖက်) is Burmese for fermented or pickled tea. Myanmar is one of the few countries where tea is both consumed as a drink and as an eaten delicacy, in the form of pickled tea, which is unique to this region. Laphet is regarded as a national delicacy that plays a significant role in Burmese society, and remains a traditional Burmese gesture of hospitality and is served to guests visiting a home.
Lahpet Thoke (လက်ဖက်သုပ်) is a pickled tea salad that is very popular across Myanmar. It is prepared by mixing the ingredients of Assorted Fried Beans (crisp fried garlic, chickpeas, butterfly peas, Australian peas, toasted sesame and peanuts) and adding fresh tomatoes, garlic, green chilis, and shredded cabbage, and is dressed with fish sauce, sesame or peanut oil, and lime juice. Eating Lahpet with plain white rice is another favorite.
