Not really.

Googling determined that it's a steak sauce with a "tom yum" flavor. Accordingly, you can use it as a table sauce on foods, or in marinades before they're cooked. Looks interesting! Taste it and decide.

Try making a vodka martini out of it!

Better yet, if Thai Beverages is marketing in Korea, try a Maekhong Martini! This could be the new rage!

Excitedly yours,

OH. MY. GOD! I love this stuff. I have basically mixed with my Pho soups, stews and steamed dumplings. It adds a spicy-beefy richness to the Pho soup, a delicious after-taste in beef stews and a wonderful tangy-spicy one to steamed/fried dumplings. I'm afraid that this bottle won't last me a week. I'm addicted.

Peter - vodka martini? Sounds interesting! But alas, I don't drink.

[Peter Green]

Ah, well. The world will have to wait a little more for Thailand to have its signature martini.

The soup is a much better idea.

Where did the sauce originate? The box does have Thai on it, but the labeling looks much more Western.

Cheers,

Peter

Peter - the label at the back says it is A PRODUCT OF THAILAND. My friend picked it up when he vacationed there earlier this year. Phuket I think.

Takadi - it says that the main ingredient is fish sauce.
