FISH SAUCE 700 ml – TIPAROS

Tiparos Fish Sauce is the true essence of Thai cuisine, known and appreciated worldwide. This amber, clear liquid is one of the fundamental ingredients that imparts the authentic "umami" flavor – the fifth taste, described as savory, meaty, or deep – to countless Southeast Asian dishes. Known in Thailand as Nam Pla, it is an absolute "must-have" in every kitchen, serving a function similar to that of salt in European cuisine, and even more so, as it brings additional depth and aroma. Tiparos sauce is produced through the natural fermentation of small fish (anchovies) with added sea salt and water, followed by cane sugar. This process, lasting from several months to up to two years, allows for the extraction of an intense yet well-balanced flavor. Thanks to the high anchovy extract content (65%), the sauce has a rich and full flavor profile, which, when cooked, loses its intense "fishy" smell, leaving only salinity and the depth of umami. Tiparos, as a product from Thailand, is a guarantee of authenticity and high quality. It is the number one fish sauce in its homeland and one of the most frequently chosen worldwide. Its characteristic large bottle is an icon of Thai cooking.

Tiparos is not just a sauce; it is a piece of history and tradition of Thai culinary art. The brand was established back in 1910 in the Chonburi province, making it a pioneer and one of the oldest fish sauce producers in Thailand. Over a century of experience in fish fermentation guarantees consistent, superior quality that is valued by home cooks and chefs alike globally. Tiparos sauce is versatile – it is indispensable in classic dishes such as Pad Thai, green and red curries, Tom Yum soups, or Som Tam salad. It is also excellent as a simple dipping sauce, often mixed with chili, garlic, and lime (Nam Pla Prik), creating an addition that will enliven any dish.

Its liquid consistency allows for easy dosing and even distribution of flavor in marinades and sauces. Contrary to popular belief, fish sauce works perfectly not only in Asian dishes. A few drops can enhance the flavor of stews, vegetable soups, and even bolognese sauce, replacing or supplementing salt while adding an unparalleled depth. This is the secret of professional chefs to make a dish have a richer and more complex flavor.

Tiparos, thanks to its short and natural ingredient list, based mainly on anchovy extract, water, salt, and sugar, is an example of minimalism that maximizes the taste experience. This is a product that should definitely be on the shelf of every Asian cuisine lover and anyone who wants to experiment with new, intense flavors. Opt for authenticity and choose Tiparos to bring the taste of Thailand straight to your kitchen.
