Fish Sauce Dipping Sauce / Nước Chấm
Nước Chấm is the king of all Vietnamese dipping sauces and is used in numerous dishes like bánh xèo (Vietnamese savory crepes), bún thịt nướng (vermicelli bowls), spring rolls and so much more. Every family has their own recipe for this dipping sauce, but for me, the perfect golden ratio is 1:1:5 - equal parts
