Report
Need a plant-based substitute for fish sauce? This is it! Just 5 ingredients required, ready in less than 30 minutes, and perfectly salty and tangy. Great for Thai-inspired dishes and beyond!

Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cup water
- 1/4 cup dulse (loosely packed // we like Maine Coast Sea Vegetables brand)
- 1/4 cup dried shiitake mushrooms
- 2 tsp salt sea salt
- 1 ¼ tsp chickpea miso (or soy miso // ensure gluten-free friendly as needed)
- 1-2 Tbsp tamari (for depth of flavor // or sub coconut aminos for soy-free)
Instructions
- To a small saucepan, add water, dulse, dried shiitake mushrooms, and sea salt. Bring to a boil, then cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 15-20 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Pour liquid through a fine mesh strainer into a bowl, pressing on the mushrooms and dulse with a spoon to squeeze out any remaining liquid.
- To the bowl, add chickpea miso and tamari. Taste test and adjust as needed, adding more sea salt for saltiness, chickpea miso for umami flavor, and/or tamari for depth of flavor.
- Store in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 1 month and shake well before use. Or, pour into an ice cube tray, freeze, and store in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months.
Notes
- *Nutrition information is a rough estimate calculated with lesser amount of tamari.
