So, what is sauce au poisson?

Sauce au poisson, also known as fish sauce, is a pungent and savory condiment commonly used in Southeast Asian cuisine. Made by fermenting salted fish for several months, this amber-colored liquid boasts a complex flavor profile that ranges from sweet to salty, umami-rich to slightly sour. Its versatility makes it an indispensable ingredient in dishes such as stir-fries, curries, and dipping sauces. Despite its strong aroma, a small amount of fish sauce can add depth and complexity to any dish, making it a favorite among chefs and home cooks alike.
