Fish sauce is awesome, and like anchovies - it is a great ingredient that people love but do not recognize what it is.

I have a couple of recipes I use it in, but that's it.

 

If you really want something better than soy sauce, try tamari. I :wub: that stuff.

If you ever want to make Thai food, you need this stuff. I usually only put a little bit in because it is very strong.

I eat tons of Thai food and have never used fish sauce.

imo it's too strong to throw on top of something (unlike soy). usually used in making the sauce.

Peanut sauce -check

Coconut sauce- check

 

Fish sauce-not so much...at least not the fish sauce that is used so frequently here on the islands.

I just made a dip for fish sticks with ketchup, soy, teriaki, spices ... and after I tasted it, I thought it needed more fish sauce.

 

It works ,,, for things like that ... as well as like cheap noodle soups that come with those freeze dried shrimps.

 

If you like anchovies on pizza ... you will like fish sauce.

 

I bet it's good on pizza!
