February Staff Selection: 10% Off BLiS Fish Sauce

I was introduced to the BLiS (pronounced "blees") line some years ago when I was treated by a generous friend to dinner at Alinea. Alinea features BLiS roe and barrel-aged maple syrup on their menu. After tasting the roe, I researched the line, we started carrying it in our shops, and it's become one of our best-selling lines, especially with local chefs and home cooks.

Last year, owner Steve Stallard released their Barrel-Aged Fish Sauce, a collaboration between BLiS and Red Boat, the finest Fish Sauce in the industry. It starts with Red Boat 40n, which is barrel-aged 7 months, imparting a subtle sweetness and smokiness not associated with fish sauce. While I'm generally not a fan of fish sauce, this one is a layered & complex umami bomb and I love that!

Here are some recipes to try it in. Take 10% off this product all month long at either Provenance location!
