When my Thai friend pulled it out, I was like, "er, is that like... juice squeezed out of oysters?" I don't even think there's actual oyster "juice" in it at all though. It's "oyster flavored" sauce so that makes me feel a little better. It DOES taste better when it's cooked in the dish. I probably used 2T of oyster sauce and 1T of soy sauce in the veggie stage, and then when I added the rice, I sprinkled more soy sauce and oozed some more oyster sauce on it... it's about the consistency of molasses.

I can never get my fried rice to taste right, but I've never been able to bring myself to use oyster sauce, either. So it tastes better than it smells when it's in the dish? :) I’m glad you said that about the oyster sauce.
