Fish Sauce
Fish sauce is popular throughout Southeast Asia, and is made from various mixtures based on the liquid from salted, fermented fish.
Extremely pungent and strong-flavored, fish sauce can range in color from ochre to deep brown. Fish sauce is used as a condiment and flavoring, similar to the way soy sauce is used.
Traditional varieties of fish sauce include: nam pla (Thai), nuoc nam (Vietnamese), patis (Philippines) and shottsuru (Japanese).
