Fish sauce is an essential staple of Vietnamese cuisine. This flavorful dipping sauce is eaten with countless dishes such as bi cuon (pork rolls), egg rolls, banh xeo (Vietnamese crepes), many noodle dishes and drizzled over fried fish. The chili and garlic add a huge kick to the sauce. Without nuoc mam cham, the flavors of many dishes would fall flat.
