Question: what is the difference between tom yum and tom kha?
Answer: What is the difference between Tom Yum and Tom Kha? I love both Tom Kha Gai and Tom Yum but for very different reasons. Tom Kha Gai is made with fragrant, rich and creamy coconut milk with tender chicken. Tom Yum, however, is made with seasoned broth, shrimp and is considered a hot and sour soup.
