SWOON
Nuoc Cham or Vietnamese Dipping Sauce is an essential condiment to every Vietnamese households. It really is the perfect, delicate, harmonious combination of sweet, umami, salty, and acid and can really elevate a dish (level up! level up!). I always like to bring my little mason jar with me to Buffalo Wild Wings on Tuesdays like the money-saving, sauce boss I am and dip my extra-crispy naked wings into this this umamiful goodness. Share it with your cute, little server (Hi Mitch!) and maybe he’ll help you out when the Blazers are in the playoffs on a Tuesday and there’s a really really long wait. 😉
It’s also a must when eating bun thit nuong (Vietnamese vermicelli bowls), cha gio (Vietnamese spring rolls)– recipes coming soon, banh xeo (Vietnamese savory shrimp and pork crepe), goi ga (Vietnamese chicken and cabbage salad), and more.

It truly is so special and I really think you will love it. Please make it, purse it (I like to put it in my mason jar and then also a ziplock bag because… fish sauce), snap a pic and tag me on IG @jihaekwon_ and enjoy it with your chicken wings!
INSTRUCTIONS
In a mortar and pestle pound your garlic and Thai chili peppers until there are no big chunks. Then add the rest of the ingredients. Taste and adjust to how your liking. 🙂
If you don’t own a mortar and pestle, no worries! Finely chop your garlic and Thai chili peppers and add all of your ingredients into a bowl.
