Any good substitutions for fish sauce in Pad Thai recipes?

I am deathly allergic to fish and cannot have any trace of fish in my food. I love Pad Thai(got it made specially for me at a restaurant once)but I can't find a recipe that doesn't call for fish sauce. Suggestions?Any good substitutions for fish sauce in Pad Thai recipes?
Light soy sauce! That's the Buddhist substitution. I've sourced a good vegetarian recipe which matches my memory of light soy. You can FIX their recipe by adding whatever your omnivorous heart desires.



Just out of curiosity, have you ever use Worcestershire sauce? It's the English version of Asian fish sauces. I have a funny feeling that the fermentation process, might make it and other fish sauces safe for you! But for goodness sake don't try either based on my comment. Stick with light soya.
You might try a little plain vinegar. It can be thinned with some water to cut the bitter taste.Any good substitutions for fish sauce in Pad Thai recipes?
There is NO substitute for fish sauce that is not another fish product. Just leave it out of the recipe.



If you aren't used to eating Pad Thai with fish sauce in it, you won't miss it anyway!



Enjoy!
SOY SAUCE!!!! I just got a recipe that says you can use fish paste(WHICH I HATE FISH), so they said you can use soy sauce insteadAny good substitutions for fish sauce in Pad Thai recipes?
there's a great pad thai recipe for vegetarians, it's based on tamarind. it's actually really good. It wont be authentic but it's as close as you'll get without using dried shrimp or nam pla.



try a web search using "vegetarian, pad thai"
