bella54330 Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 Hi. I was wondering if anyone knew the nutritional value of Nampla (fish sauce). I do not read Thai, and the labels never have anything about it in English. I am most concerned with the calories and the sodium. I wouild be very grateful if anyone knew. I use it in EVRYTHING, and am having a hard time knowing how to incorporate it into my new diet. Thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks!!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Howdy BambinA, In general the sodium content is the only thing that changes much.It can range between 1200mg - 1900mg per Tablespoon.The wife has found that Vietnames brands tend to have the lower sodium.Three crabs is one that is in the mid range of sodium with great flavor.But to each their own.

siamsam Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 That's strange, fish sauce has always been trumpted for its high vitamin B content. Looking at the above nutritional content, this doesn't seem to be so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Jones Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 It makes sense that the sodium content is high as it is used in Thai cooking as a substitute for salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meadish_sweetball Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Did you ever notice that if the letters in nampla are rearranged it spells napalm? Not if you spell it Num Pla, Naam Bpla, Naam Bplaa or Num bpla. You can also get "Insane Anglo Warlord" out of 'Ronald Wilson Reagan'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
