Fish Sauce Substitutes??

kellygirl · #1 02-11-2008, 01:12 PM

I have this Pad Thai recipe & it calls for 1/4 cup of asian fish sauce. I was just thinking I could skip the fish sauce, but it's a decent amount of sauce, so I have to assume it's a fair portion of the flavoring. Does anyone have a substitute for this? I was thinking soy sauce....??

Help me out fellow veggies!

when i did a veggie cooking course in thailand we used mushroom sauce, its very similar to fish or soy sauce. you'll probably have to get it from an asian supermarket.
