So, what is fish saucé?

Fish sauce is a popular condiment and flavoring ingredient in Southeast Asian cuisine. It is made from fermented fish and salt, which are aged for several months to develop a pungent, umami-rich flavor. The resulting liquid is then strained and bottled, ready to be used in dishes ranging from stir-fries and curries to dipping sauces and marinades. Fish sauce adds depth and complexity to dishes, enhancing other flavors without overpowering them. It is often used as a substitute for salt in recipes and can be found in most Asian grocery stores. Its versatility and unique flavor profile make it a must-have ingredient in any home cook's pantry.
