Best Fish Sauce Substitutes for Shellfish Allergies

Asked Jun 11, 2021 by Sue V.

I am allergic to shell fish and am sensitive to fish of any kind. What can I substitute when a recipe calls for fish sauce?

In addition it would be nice if you had a dictionary (brief listing) or even an encyclopedia (a bit more info on any preparation needed to use the alternative ingredient) of substitutes as a reference book(s).

If you decide to create one, please credit me with the idea and send me a free copy.
