NUOC CHAM (VIETNAMESE SAUCE)

This favorite Vietnamese dipping sauce goes well with so many things. It doesn't keep well, so make it fresh. The sauce should taste balanced, not too sweet, sour, or salty.

NUOC CHAM (VIETNAMESE DIPPING SAUCE)

My personal take on a traditional dipping sauce. A little bit sweet, but mostly savory with a nice bit of heat. I make this a minimum of 24 hours before I use it to let the flavors mingle. Leftover sauce can be kept for three to four weeks in a sealed container in the refrigerator. If this isn't to your taste as written, experiment! Everyone's tastes are different! Some like their nuoc cham really sweet and mild, some like it tangy with heat. Mine tends to be more towards the tangy heat side. So, before you add the garlic, onion, and vinegar, sample it and adjust the ingredient amounts to suit your liking. Keep in mind that this recipe is LOUD when you first make it. The flavors mingle and mature a bit after the first 24 hours. I hope you enjoy!

NUOC CHAM: FISH DIPPING SAUCE

This is probably the most important sauce in Vietnamese cooking, used as a dipping sauce with many dishes, including spring rolls, crepes, grilled meats and seafood. For a spicier sauce, mince rather than slice the chilies and garlic. Any leftover sauce can be refrigerated for up to 2 weeks.

SIMPLE NUOC CHAM

This is the basic sauce that almost always appears on the Vietnamese table, where it serves somewhat the same function as salt and pepper in the West. Nuoc cham is frequently presented in individual saucers and diners dip their food in the sauce before eating it.

Steps:

  • In a 4-cup measuring jug, place the nuoc mam, sugar and the juice of the lemons. Mix well until the sugar has dissolved.
  • Add garlic and stir to mix.
  • Note the quantity of liquid in the measuring jug and add one and a half times that amount in water. Stir well and taste. You may add more of any ingredient. The nuoc cham should have a delicately fishy flavor, sweet and tart at the same time.
  • Add chili peppers.

10 tablespoons nuoc mam
4 tablespoons sugar
2 lemons
1 tablespoon finely minced garlic
Water to taste
3 tiny hot green or red chili peppers, thinly sliced

  • Combine water and sugar in a bowl. Optional: heat 1/3 of the water, then mix in to make dissolving the sugar easier, then add the rest of the water.
  • Add lime or lemon juice in increments until you like how it tastes. A good guide is it should taste like lemonade/limeade.
  • Add fish sauce in small increments until you like how it tastes. It should be a little strong since it will be paired with unseasoned food.

  • Stir together 1/2 cup water, lime juice, and sugar in a small bowl until sugar dissolves. Add additional lime juice and/or sugar to taste; dilute with water if flavors are too strong. If there’s an unpleasant tart-bitter edge, add rice vinegar to fix flavor.
  • Stir in fish sauce; add additional fish sauce to taste. (How much you use depends on the brand and your own taste.) Aim for a bold, forward finish that’s a little gutsy. Keep in mind that this sauce typically dresses dishes that include unsalted ingredients such as lettuce and herbs, which will need an extra flavor lift.
  • If using, stir in carrot, chile, and/or garlic. (Offer chile on the side if diners are sensitive to its heat.) Serve sauce in a bowl on the table so diners may help themselves, or divide among small individual bowls in advance.
