Tips
Fish sauce is the ultimate umami sauce. Seek out one made with just anchovy, salt and water for the best flavor.
You can find fried garlic premade at Asian markets and online. To make your own, heat 1/4 cup canola or avocado oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add thinly sliced garlic cloves and cook, stirring often, until golden and crispy, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Refrigerate any leftover flavored oil to use in savory recipes.
