FIL: Isang uri ng sawsawan na kulay kayumanggi, maalat, at gawa sa isda na binuro sa asin sa loob ng mahabang panahon.
EN: fish sauce
The liquid soulmate of calamansi. It's the salty, funky, umami bomb that levels up everything from tinolang manok to fried fish. It's the one condiment whose smell will either make you hungry or make your non-Filipino friends ask if something died in your kitchen.
From Malay 'petis', which refers to a thick shrimp or fish paste.
A staple condiment in Filipino cuisine, used for both cooking and as a dipping sauce (sawsawan).
