Vegan Fish Sauce

While most Asian cuisine is easily adapted to fit a vegetarian diet (or is vegetarian already), one ingredient continues to be elusive and often is that "something-something" missing from otherwise decent dishes: fish sauce. Fish sauce is full of umami richness, which can easily be replicated with seaweed and mushrooms. This recipe comes from the food website, www.thekitchn.com
