In Thai, Nam Jim is the phrase for a dipping sauce. This class of sauces are used to add flavor to other dishes. Some common Nam Jim dipping sauces are Nam Jim Talay (Seafood dipping sauce), Nam Jim Sate (Peanut dipping sauce), Nam Jim Gai (Chicken dipping sauce), and Nam Jim Jaew (Dried chili dipping sauce). Nam Prik is the Thai phrase for a chili paste. These chili pastes are thicker than the Nam Jim dipping sauces and are all made with a variety of chili as the base. They are usually eaten as stand-alone dishes in combination with grilled meats, raw vegetables, and sticky rice. Nam Prik Ong (Pork and Tomato chili paste), Nam Prik Noom (Young Chili paste) and Nam Prik Gapi (Shrimp Paste chili dip) are some of the more common Nam Prik chili pastes.
