<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> At home I have a bottle of Tommy Tang's Thai Fish Sauce. It lists the ingredients as: anchovy extract, water, and natural sea salt. This might be OK for someone sensitive to soy and/or gluten, but not for low salt or strict vegetarian diets. It is pretty potent stuff. It tastes saltier than soy sauce and has a strong flavor. I read about it in the Frugal Gourmet's book, "3 Ancient Cuisines," and I gathered that it is a forerunner of Worchester sauce. The ancient Romans had a fish sauce similar to this (which sounded awful, being made with *aged* fish). I got the fish sauce out of curiosity, because I love Worchester sauce, but the fish sauce is, well, fishier. Worchester sauce has anchovies in it too, at least the brands I've noticed, so my vegetarian friends won't use it either. Bobbi in Baltimore
