Fish Sauce

More than a seasoning, fish sauce is a defining taste of Vietnam, bringing depth and harmony to dishes across generations.

For generations, a small splash of fish sauce has been enough to bring a dish to life. From a steaming bowl of noodles to a fragrant broth or a simple dipping sauce, its unmistakable savoury depth has become part of the everyday flavours of Southeast Asia. What began as a traditional way of preserving fish has evolved into one of the region’s most recognisable culinary signatures.

Its character comes from time. Fish and salt are left to ferment and mature, allowing natural processes to gradually build layers of umami, savoury richness and delicate fermented aromas. The result can be clean and subtle, or deep, rounded and intensely savoury — with each style bringing its own character to a dish.

At GiVi, we capture this distinctive character in fish sauce flavour solutions made for today’s food applications. From light, clean profiles to rich and mature umami notes, our flavours bring the familiar taste of fish sauce to instant noodles, soups, sauces, seasonings, marinades, snacks, ready meals and plant-based creations — with consistency and flexibility from one application to the next.
