>makes food tastes 1000% better
White people should really start using this so their food is less bland
>imported mystery gutter oil from some asian country

>>21399754 (OP)You telling me a fish made that sauce?
>>21399754 (OP)It also makes everything smell 100000% worse I think I’ll just eat whatever the fuck I want but thanks for this great thread.
There are two kinds of fish sauce.
The Westernised version basically just tastes like sugar, salt and fish protein, so yes it improves food.
The authentic version, however ... Good lord, it just tastes like the stinkiest most spoiled fish intestines you can find. Vile shit by itself. Maybe it tastes good in combination with other stuff, but I doubt it.
>>21399780I'm really trying to place the smell. Damp dirty socks keeps coming to me. Genuinely foul.
Usually the other ingredients mask the smell if I'm using it though.
>>21399754 (OP)although oyster sauce is more disgusting and untrustworthy, fish sauce is second worst. just imagine all the stages of disgusting 3rd world food handling practices that it takes to make that shit.
>>21399771Best fish in all of India!
>>21399780the smell disappears after it cooks down a bit, don't be such a pussy.
>>21399754 (OP)Yep. Umami. Colatura di alici is much better for western cooking. The really good Spanish stuff almost smells like parmesan cheese. It has a more refined and subtle aroma/funk than asian fish sauce.
Asian fish sauce is really great for asian dishes. I also think fermented shrimp paste is awesome. Smells like absolute ass, but makes food so delicious.
wyppo fish sauce is worcestershire and dijon
>>21400398>Umamicareful you're gonna trigger the autists.
>>21399754 (OP)Browns should stay in school so they stop shooting each other and burning down cities
>>21400403>t. weeb with 1000 cum-stained pedo figurines
>>21400401No it is not. White people fish sauce is garum/colatura di alici.
>>21400403I had sex with umami last night.
Meaning, I had sex with nothing last night because umami isn't an actual thing
>>21399754 (OP)It's my secret ingredient in my chicken soup. My family loves it.
>>21400409>>21400434Is there a single other word that makes people seethe as much as umami?
Umami. Umami. Umami.
>>21400403It's called savory in English.
>>21400438>>21400442the japs killed my great uncle. replacing perfectly extant english words and concepts with trendy jap bullshit can go die in a fire
>>21400442It's all one guy that got absolutely btfo in the umami thread. He is now having a board wide meltdown.
>>21400455He's been getting assblasted for years in his stupid umami threads but never as hard or by so many anons as recently.
>>21400451Japs and their fanboys are still mad that they got absolutely BTFO, it's why you see this badly-concealed reddit seethe everywhere
>>21400429Can't, I'm not a microdicked yellow person
>>21400460The anti umami guy is the one having the site wide sperge out. I see nothing wrong with saying that fish sauce has umami.
>>21399780I like the smell, reminds me of your mother
Really shows how little minorities know about white people.
My grandma was using Asian fish sauce 30 years ago.
>>21399754 (OP)i like soy sauce more. fish sauce is good in certain dishes in the perfect amount but it seems like it's easy to not taste it at all or for it to be overpowering. people only seem to use soy sauce in asian dishes but it works well in a lot of other things.
Fish sauce smells bad, but it's fantastic when used properly. If you've eaten Vietnamese or Thai food you've almost certainly had something with fish sauce in it.
Oh it's another "I've fucked up my tastebuds with fast food and soda and everything tastes bland now" thread. You amerisharts are a disgrace.
>>21399754 (OP)>White people should really start using thisBesides asian food, I use it in pasta sauce, but what else is it good for?
smells like rotten potato sludge
tastes fuckin good as fuck
Yeah, god gets his laughs. I dare anyone to leave an open bottle of Pufina Patis brand filipino fish sauce hidden somewhere in your office people will go insane assuming there's a dead animal
