Anyone know how common it is to use fish sauce in fried rice? Is it correct to say its usually part of the recipe?
Im wondering if it would it be worth it to start adding it to my recipes. Also how does the taste differ from Oyester sauce?
- Fordec 5y agoOh it is far different to oyster sauce. It's more like a very mild rice vinegar loaded with MSG with a tinge of raw fishyness to it.
- girzel 5y agoThai cooking uses it in near everything, including fried rice. And most stir-fried veggies. I've been stewing collard greens in chicken broth and fish sauce: delicious!
- jrochkind1 5y agoIn Thai fried rice, sure! (By which I mean fried rice from thai restaurants in USA, I have zero idea what they do in Thailand, or China, or if they eat fried rice at all. :) ) Whether it's "usually" part of the recipe or not, if you like it, go for it! Totally different thing than oyster sauce as I've seen oyster sauce. I put fish sauce in lots of stuff, if it's good fish sauce it's really an umami boost.
