Chilis in Fish Sauce

This is a super easy condiment that is part of the same family as pickled peppers. I like to eat these peppers on top of eggs, salads, in soups, with steamed veggies, or over meats. They are VERY flavorful and spicy so it will instantly pack a punch to anything bland or something that needs a little oomph.

Some notes:

  1. Eat these like you would picked peppers – the juice isn’t necessarily for consuming.
  2. The liquid part of this will be very spicy and will add more flavor to anything, but too much will ruin whatever you’re eating.
  3. The peppers are a great umami enhancement to any dish.
  4. Store these in an air tight container – the peppers should be good for up to a month.
