Fish Sauce

Who has used it?
And why??

(I bought it for a recipe and I'm thinking maybe I got a bad bottle)

I'm sure your bottle is fine.

The stuff by itself, smells nasty...I don't know anyone who thinks it smells appetizing.

But in the right recipe/quantity, it brings a dish alive. Don't be afraid...get a well reviewed recipe, and give it a try.

Nasty fermented fish guts smell terrible, but really do wonders in food.

Use the bottle you bought -- the stuff CANNOT go bad as it already has

The Food Network and the Travel Channel has lead me to learn way too much about fish sauce and its production. I'm fearful of shrimp paste as well.

We've got a bottle. Don't use it like soy sauce!!
I had to throw out the first couple things I tried with it.
It's kinda like vermouth and a martini -
just wave the bottle around over the top and thats the perfect amount

OK I'll take your word for it. I'd still rather drink shots of vermouth.

I wonder if it will keep deer away.

The bottle isn't bad. It's supposed to smell like that.

My wife uses it in soups and stuff. She's vietnamese.

Used properly, which I still don't know how to do(my wife does), it's a fine thing. In my hands, it's a disaster waiting to be tossed

You can use it as a substitute for anchovy paste. There you go, saved you an ingredient.

Lea & Perrins Worcestershire sauce contains anchovies. But it sure works great on beef.

That it does!
I like a nice mixture of soy and Worcestershire with a little herb de provence on a fresh elk tenderloin

Heh yeah. Also sprinkle it around your house to keep the skunks away.
