Fish sauce mercury levels?
All kidding aside, fish sauce is a great addition to many meals, once
you get "the taste" for it. Eating any fish - salmon or tuna, for
instance, is now under some scrutiny for environmental contaminants.
Not unlike anything else, though. Moderation seems to be the rule in
this new millenium. Fish sauce is one salty ingredient though, so you
sodium-restricted types beware. But there's no real reason to be
paranoid either, since it's not used in large quantities anyways. So
enjoy. I mentioned on an earlier post I like the Golden Boy brand.
Anyone want to add their opinion on sauces they like? One shot I'd like
to make is the "Three Crabs" brand - nice bottle, twice the price,
talks the talk, doesn't walk the walk.....
