The Ingredient That Will Change Your Tomato Sauce Forever - Tasting Table

We've all sampled a dish and said, "something's missing." Frustratingly enough, and more often than not, we don't always know what that missing ingredient is. If your tomato sauce lacks a little something-something, you've come to the right place. According to MyRecipes, one unexpected ingredient will "save your sauce," and it's more unusual than you might expect. Fish sauce.

As the name suggests, fish sauce is made with fish. This sweet and salty blend derives from fish, typically anchovies, that have been fermented for months — sometimes even years (via Healthline). What results from this fermentation process is a brown sauce packed with glutamates. Because it is chock full of glutamates, adding fish sauce to your tomato sauce is similar to dropping a umami bomb in your dish.

Correctly incorporating fish sauce into your dish is all about timing. You will want to make sure that you gradually add this ingredient as your sauce simmers. MyRecipes recommends adding in the sauce "a teaspoon at a time" for approximately 10 to 15 minutes. If you are a vegetarian or the thought of fish sauce truly makes you want to run and hide, you can substitute this ingredient with aged Parmesan cheese or canned and charred anchovies.
