Asian fish sauce is often made from anchovies, salt and water, and it needs to be used in moderation because it is intensely flavoured. The variety from Vietnam is generally called nước mắm, and similar condiments from Thailand and Myanmar are called nam pla (น้ำปลา) and ngan byar yay respectively. In Cambodia, it is known as thuc tei and range from a variety of sauces using fish sauce as a base. The Indonesian semisolid fish paste trasi, the Cambodian prahok and the Malay fermented krill brick belacan are other popular variations of the same theme.

All-purpose Kikkoman Soy Sauce is naturally brewed from wheat, soybeans, water and salt. Like fine wine, Kikkoman Soy Sauce is aged for several months to develop its characteristic rich, yet mellow flavor, appetizing aroma and distinctive reddish-brown color. Besides using it in traditional Asian dishes, try it in mainstream American foods, classic Mediterranean dishes or exotic Caribbean cuisine. 

Kikkoman Less Sodium Soy Sauce is brewed exactly the same way as all-purpose Kikkoman Soy Sauce. However, after the fermentation process is completed, approximately 40% of the salt is removed. Although there is less sodium in Less Sodium Soy Sauce, all the flavor and quality characteristics remain because it is aged before extracting the salt. However, to maintain this full flavor, we recommend using it during the latter stage of cooking in braising sauces, soups and stews, vegetables or stir-frys.

Asian: Asian sauces generally contain more ingredients than Louisiana or Mexican. These sauces are generally sweeter and often rely on garlic or other seasonings for their flavor. However, Chinese (especially Sichuan and Hunan), Thai and Indian sauces are some of the hottest sauces made.

Sriracha is the generic name for a Southeast Asian hot sauce from Thailand, although one of the most famous brands is American. It is named after the seaside town Si Racha, where it was first produced as a local product. In fact, some Thais found the American brand perplexing, as Sriracha is thought to be a unique brand from that town, not a type of sauce. It is made from sun-ripened chile peppers, vinegar, garlic, sugar and salt.

It has a hot and spicy sweet flavor and is popular in many parts of the world. It is often used as a condiment for phở, along with hoisin sauce. It is never used on noodles or soups in Thailand, instead it is often used as a dipping, particularly for seafood (usually clams). It is also excellent as a general-use hot sauce, especially with Asian foods. Sriracha, to those who are unable to pronounce the name, is also sometimes referred to as "rooster sauce" or "cock sauce" since the bottle sports an image of a rooster.

The US brand from Huy Phong has sodium bisulfite as a preservative, and is often left out on the table at restaurants all day. Thai grocery stores carry the authentic Thai version, which usually has no preservatives and is refrigerated after opening. Some think the Thai version superior in taste for that reason.

In the United States, the Huy Phong brand has been adopted into a wide array of cuisines. The bottle lists the ingredients in five languages: Vietnamese, Chinese, French, Spanish, and Thai. The Rooster can be found in a wide variety of restaurants including American (where it has been put onto hamburgers, french fries, omlettes, etc.), Mexican, and Italian (where it has been put onto pizza or pasta instead of hot pepper flakes).

Ingredients
Water, chili pepper, sugar, salt, rice vinegar, sesame oil, soybean, wheat flour, tomato paste, garlic, food starch-modified, peppercorn, oyster extractives, hydrolyzed soy protein, xanthan gum, caramel color.

In Chinese cookbooks, 1/2 tablespoon of Western white vinegar is equivalent in strength to 1 tablespoon Chinkiang vinegar. Many Chinese people who grow up with rice vinegars take time to grow accustomed to the strength of Western vinegars when they start to encounter them.

Low Salt Content
Many people are surprised to hear that peanuts have a very low salt content - usually only 1.4mg per 25 gm serve.

Salted peanuts, naturally, have a higher content - but it's still only about 107mg per 25 gm serve. This is much lower than most common snack foods such as corn chips and potato chips.

So if sodium is a concern in your diet, you'll generally find that you can safely consume peanuts without any ill effects.


Folate and Antioxidants
Finally, peanuts possess a natural high folate content, along with vital antioxidants.

Doctors and nutritionists now recognise that both of these make a vital contribution to human well-being and that antioxidants also tend to slow down the aging process.

Many food manufacturers now put folate into their food products because of its beneficial health effects. But here at the Peanut Van, all the goodness is put in by Mother Nature herself
