According to the website, Vietnam has long been praised for a variety of sauces, which are able to balance savory, sweet, tangy, and spicy flavors all at once.

However, it says  mắm nêm creates the perfect example of how an array of tastes can come together to create a daring sauce.

“Initially, mắm nêm walks a fine line — this pungent yet crave-able sauce is no doubt an acquired taste. But, those who have dipped their beef soup noodles or grilled catfish into this sauce have never gone back,” says Tasting Table.

The website reveals that foreign food lovers may be able to find it bottled when browsing around a local Asian specialty grocery store. In addition, lots of online retailers also sell this sauce via Amazon, meaning consumers worldwide can have it at their dinner table in no time.

“And, we assure you, you haven't tried a sauce with a similar ingredient list to this on.” Tasting Table concludes.
