"Squid Patis" refers to Squid Brand fish sauce, a popular, mass-produced Filipino and Thai condiment. It is a rich, savory, and robust-flavored liquid seasoning used to add a depth of umami (savory taste) to a wide variety of dishes.
Description:
  • Flavor Profile: It provides a rich, strong, and distinctively salty flavor with a pronounced "fishy punch" and aroma compared to some other brands. It is known for its balance of salty, sweet (from a small amount of added sugar), and umami notes.
  • Ingredients: The main ingredients are typically high-quality anchovies, sea salt, and a little sugar, naturally fermented for a period, often around 18 months.
  • Appearance: The resulting sauce has a clear, reddish-brown color.
  • Usage: Patis (the Filipino term for fish sauce) is a staple in Filipino and general Southeast Asian cuisine. It is incredibly versatile, used as:
    • A primary seasoning agent in cooked dishes like adobo, sinigang (sour soup), and stir-fries.
  • A table condiment or dipping sauce, often mixed with chili, garlic, or lime juice.
  • A substitute for salt or soy sauce to enhance overall flavor.
  • Squid Brand is a widely recognized and trusted brand, available in major supermarkets and Asian grocery stores globally.
