Fish Sauce

As common in Southeast Asia as soy
sauce is in China, this pungent, thin liquid is made from salted, fermented
fish. It is both an ingredient and a condiment in several cuisines. Fish sauce
is called nuoc mam in Vietnam, nam pla in Thailand and shottsuru in Japan.
The strong aroma dissipates in cooking. Fish sauce from the first pressing
(sometimes called "virgin") is preferred for its light taste and amber color.
