Etymology
From 魚 /鱼 (yú, “fish”) + 香 (xiāng, “fragrant”). May come from the use of this flavor profile in cooking freshwater fish dishes in Sichuan. May also be a reference to the use of certain carp species in the brine when pickling chilli peppers, 魚辣子 /鱼辣子, which are a basic component of this sauce.
