Grandpa Daeng* was bored with congee, but he had no choice because he does not have teeth to chew. Fortunately, his grandchildren came across a book titled 46 Food Recipes That Help To Train Swallowing based on the IDDSI (International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation). These special recipes helped Daeng enjoy his meals again. Two of his favourite dishes from the book are Szechuan soup and mushy rice with pork stew.
In collaboration with the Thai Dietetic Association, Varanya Techasukthavorn, a dietitian lecturer at the Department of Nutrition and Dietetics at the Faculty of Allied Health Sciences, Chulalongkorn University, teamed up with four other dietitians to create the book.
