Sauce question
#9
As noted on other threads discussing garum and its variants, Asian fish sauce is very close to a 'garum type' sauce and can be used in roman recipes as a substitute to good effect.
Bear in mind that garum and asian fish sauce is generally used as a cooking ingredient, not like worcestershire sauce or ketchup added to food after cooking ( though it can be used as a dipping sauce for those who like the taste)
