Togue's Tips: This stuff is INCREDIBLE! I can't say enough good things about it. The story is amazing, the product is delicious... it's just really, really great. Here's how Maine Garum Company describes their product:
This product begins with glass eels harvested by fishermen from the coastal rivers of Maine. The eels are responsibly farmed without added hormones or antibiotics by American Unagi, creating some of the finest eel on earth. Maine Garum Company fully utilizes and honors this extraordinary resource by purchasing 100% of the residual fish from the filleting process, which is then fermented into a globally unique fish sauce with unmatched sustainability. Combining a world class ingredient, ancient fermentation techniques and modern innovations, we craft a fish sauce like no other. Our eel garum has a clean, oceanic aroma unlike the rancid imported alternatives, and a rich kick of umami that enhances and balances dishes both savory and sweet.
Think of this as a milder version of fish sauce. Personally, I love fish sauce on everything, but I also understand it's a bit much for some people. This has a more subtle flavor. This is going to sound weird, but trust me on this: to impress your foodie friends, drip a few drops on a tablespoon of whipped cream and have them taste it. It's UNREAL! There's a photo below showing raw scallops with whipped cream and eel garum... OMG, so delicious.
This makes everything better.
