Traditional fish sauce is made with anchovies and salt. The more modern brands include ingredients like MSG, caramel, and other food additives. None of these are good for someone who suffers from gout.

Who doesn’t love spicy chicken wings? My favorites are the Korean ones with spicy or yangnyeom sauce. In Korean these are 두부 양념 치킨. To keep this gout friendly we will substitute extra firm tofu for wings. The sauce will have enough flavor to keep this from being a boring tofu recipe.
