Today, fish sauce is produced in the villages and fishing villages. To cook the fish is placed in barrels, Packed with salt and allow time for fermentation. After that, the liquid which is formed in the barrels, is removed through the tap located at the bottom of the jar. When fish meat to complete fermentation, it was filtered, placed in a clean container and exposed to the sun. The more a product will be exposed to direct sunlight, the better get the sauce with more intense flavor-so gets first grade fish sauce. The second and third varieties are made by coating residues fish salt water again and leave for two to three months to continue the fermentation and then bottled. Finally, the remains of fish boiled in salt water, and the result is the lowest grade fish sauce, which tastes significantly reduced. The consistency of some sauces are quite varied-some are liquid, while others are more like a puree.
