Hi, Kate,
You can use this rau ram in this chicken salad...http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Vietnamese-Chicken-Salad-243196 or http://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/vietnamese-chicken-salad. Replace the mint and cilantro with the rau ram. Just julienne the leaves. The stems are kind of woody. You can put the stems in a vase and after a couple of weeks. Plant the plant in a double pot and put the double pot in the ground. In the fall, pull out the one pot and take it inside of you like. If you have other questions, you can always email me at [email protected] or check out my blog by googling (cooking with tien). I am so impressed that you want to try to use rau rum. It's one of my favorite herbs along with culantro. They finally had some at Walmart two days ago. Cheers, Tien

Thanks Kate for joining the group. It was getting lonely just by myself. I look forward to sharing more Vietnamese recipes with you. Sincerely, Tien
