The Meat & Seafood Salad Dressing
A
Vietnamese salad dressing is a critical ingredient in a Vietnamese kitchen.
The salad has an important role; it set the tone of the dinner
and it introduces the other courses to follow.
This Vietnamese Salad Dressing
by 1-2-3 Sauce can be used as a base sauce for the entire
Vietnamese salad line.
Other traditional Vietnamese salads that one can make with this sauce are:
"Goi Ga" or Chicken Salad, "Goi
Bo" or Beef
Salad, "Goi Thit" or Pork Salad, and the
Seafood Salad.
A typical Vietnamese dinner includes a sautéed dish, a salad
and a soup. The dinner is not complete unless it has
these taste categories; something salty, something sweet,
sour, and a soup.
An example of a
traditional Vietnamese dinner menu:
-
Shrimps / Pork Lotus Root Salad (Goi Sen Tom Thit)
-
Red Snapper or Cat Fish Sautéed in a Clay Pot (Ca Kho To)
-
Pineapple & Tamarind Sweet & Sour Seafood Soup (Canh Chua)
The Vietnamese people
usually have their salad first. The main course
follows and finally, the soup is served last.
