Discover the authentic in Asian cuisine food

Southeast Asian weather is hot and tropical year-round, so it’s no surprise that their wide range of flavourful delicacies are perfect for the summer! Among the key ingredients to cook up these refreshing, tantalising delights is the marvellous fish sauce.
Made from anchovies, salt and sugar, the gluten-free fish sauce has enriched Asian cooking for over 2,000 years, providing a bold savoury flavour that’s versatile for stir-fries, curries, barbecue marinades, salad dressings, dipping sauces and more. Come explore into the illustrious legacy of fish sauce in our feature article!
How to Use Fish Sauce

Fish sauce is much more potent than salt and soy sauce, so a dash of it is usually enough for most recipes. Fish sauce is also best used with aromatic herbs and spices to accentuate the natural tastes of meat and seafood, as well as to compliment sour, spicy and sweet flavours, creating layers of delicious complexity. For summer dishes like salads and barbecues, fish sauce adds a refreshing, fragrant and appetizing allure.
