Description
Fish Sauce for Papaya Salad - 350 ml
This fish sauce is a specially developed variant tailored for use in green papaya salad, also known as Som Tum. The product differs from common fish sauces by having a more rounded and harmonious flavor profile with a slight sweetness and less intensity, making it suitable directly in salad dressings without further addition of sugar or lime. The sauce is made from fermented fish combined with ground toasted rice, water, and salt, contributing to a deep and complex umami flavor. Its liquid consistency makes it easy to dispense and mix with other ingredients such as chili, garlic, and citrus juice. In addition to papaya salad, the sauce can be used in other Asian salads, such as mango salad or cucumber salad, and it also works as a dipping sauce when mixed with lime and palm sugar. The taste is salty and slightly acidic with a softer fish aroma compared to more potent fish sauces. The product comes in a glass bottle with a content of 350 ml, ensuring good shelf life and easy storage. The sauce contains the flavor enhancer E621, caramel color E150c, and the stabilizer E415. With a salt content of 18.6 g per 100 ml, the sauce is concentrated and should be used in moderate amounts. The product is aimed at food enthusiasts who want to prepare authentic Thai dishes at home, as well as restaurants and street food concepts focusing on Southeast Asian cuisine.
