Description
Also known as ‘Nuoc Cham’ in Vietnamese, this is the quintessential sauce of the three regions of Vietnam, made with a concoction of flavours that excite and satisfy all sweet, savoury and sour taste buds equally. PoppySmack has mastered the balance of the three flavours, and then taken this classic sauce to another level with a unique blend of fresh garlic, chilli, herbs and zesty citrus rind. It’s sure to add zing to a garden salad, sea-spray freshness to grilled fish, and a whiff of tantalizing freshness to PoppySmack rice-paper rolls.
It all started with the Vietnamese Dipping sauce, otherwise known as Nước Chấm in our native language. Like Forrest Gump with his shrimps, the Vietnamese Dipping sauce is a universal dipping sauce for everything. We use it on many of our popular dishes like Gỏi cuốn (Rice paper rolls), Cơm tấm (Special Broken Rice), Bún Thịt Nướng (Vietnamese Grilled Pork & Rice Noodles) and Chả giò (Spring Rolls) just to name a few. The traditional recipe and techniques to make this sauce has been passed down to us from generations to generations, and getting the perfect balance of herb and spices is what makes all our sauces unique and irresistible. Our family meal gatherings would not be complete without our condiments like Sweet and Salty Hoisin, Tangy Tamarind, Siam Chilli Sambal, Caramelized Pineapple and of course our famous Vietnamese Dipping sauce. As working mums, it is essential to find shortcuts to bring tasty and healthy meals for our young families. So we would make large batches of our sauces, bottle and then store them, ready to be used for any meal with a simple twist of a lid. Then one day, we had a light bulb moment… why not share them with everyone else? So here we are, sharing our authentic flavours of Asia with you. We take pride in our product line, ensuring the freshest available ingredients go into each bottle with no added colour, preservatives or additives. Our sauces are exactly how we enjoy them at home, and we hope you enjoy them at yours.
