Stir-fry clued me into cornstarch early, getting those nice clear Asian sauces is a lot easier with a touch of cornstarch. Soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, a touch of fish sauce, cornstarch and whatever spices you can handle. Garlic & ginger please 🧄🫚

Also home made pudding with just milk, eggs, sugar & cornstarch. Plus a flava of course. I haven't bought an instant pudding in 10 years 😂

fish sauce is under rated in the west.

Smel it tho

😂

It's amazing how something with such a smell is such a good ingredient.

I feel similarly about liverwurst sausage. I never eat it by itself, but added to chili or spaghetti sauce it gives it a huge pump up.

its a tough choice between smelling salts and fish sauce.

Yes. I put it in so many things. Chili & really anything tomato based gets a huge lift from some fish sauce.
