About this deal

The flavor of low-sodium is different than that of regular (light/thin) soy sauce. In my recipes, simply cut the regular soy sauce used by one-third (33%) or one-quarter (25%); add water to make up the difference. If you're used to the flavor of low-sodium soy sauce, use it! Dark Soy Sauce Selection tips: Look for the tall dark bottles and brands such as ABC and Cap Bango. Indonesian sweet soy sauce that has no preservatives or additives has better, more complex flavors. Kikkoman is a great brand, and we’ll use it when cooking Japanese dishes or enjoying sushi, but we’ll rarely (if ever) use it for Chinese cooking.

The difference is that the premium soy sauce is the first batch extracted from the fermentation process. Additional ingredients are then added and fermented further to create subsequent batches that are slightly less flavorful than that initial batch. PRB Soy Sauce is made of refined North-east China yellow beans, which are selected, soaked and then steamed & boiled in high pressure. The steamed yellow beans are mixed with flour and yeast. The mixture will be sent to yeast groove for ventilated ferment. The above whole process will be monitored & controlled by automatic system and computer system. After 48 hours, the matured sauce yeast is gained. This sauce yeast will be put into sunning pot with salty water for hundred-day brewing. The whole brewing process is completely natural without any artificial temperature control. Nutritional Facts We’ll also focus on light soy sauce, a term we use interchangeably with “soy sauce” or “regular soy sauce” in our recipes. It’s the type we turn to most often in our pantry, with the most versatility when it comes to Chinese cooking. What Is Soy Sauce? Coconut aminos is similar to Maggi but has a slightly tart finish on the palate. Bragg Liquid Aminos is a fine Maggi substitute that's available at mainstream grocers. Bragg is gluten-free and non-GMO, if those things matter to you. Choosing soy sauce

Retail

Not all sauces are created equal. There are naturally brewed/fermented ones, which is what you want to look for, and then there are chemical versions, which you should stay away from. Concentrated soy sauce has become an increasingly popular product, adding intense umami flavor and versatile functionality to dishes and food manufacturing processes alike. As the world’s palate continues to expand and consumers seek bolder, more authentic Asian flavors, the demand for concentrated soy sauce is likely to grow steadily. Manufacturers will respond by developing innovative varieties and fusion flavors that use concentrated soy sauce as a base. Its efficiency for storage, transport, and precise flavor control also makes this product well-suited for large-scale food production applications. Whether used in a home kitchen or industrial facility, concentrated soy sauce is poised for a bright future as more cooks and food companies recognize its culinary potential. Gluten-free La Choy soy sauce is readily available at many supermarkets and its flavor is like a cross between regular soy sauce and Maggi seasoning sauce (see below).

Chemical Soy Sauce (i.e. fake soy sauce): Not naturally brewed or fermented; made with a chemical process involving hydrolyzing soy protein (hard to explain what that is without a chemistry degree), corn syrup and caramel coloring. You’re more likely to find these at regular supermarkets than in Asian stores. Don’t buy them! Mushroom Flavored Dark Soy Sauce (Chinese): Dark soy sauce that has been flavored with mushrooms, used to add umami to dishes.Store it in a cool, dry, dark place like your pantry or cupboard. No need to refrigerate. Substitutions Think of it like first pressed olive oil. It’s the oil extracted from the very first pressing of the olives, making it higher quality and more pure than subsequent pressings. In this article, we’ll talk about the many different types available today, geographic origin, and differences! Soy sauce is used in East and Southeast Asian cuisines. There are variations and while this article isn't exhaustive, I hope it covers a lot of territory for your needs. Here we go! Regular Soy Sauce

Swirl into noodle dishes, rice bowls, and stir-fries in place of regular soy sauce for added body and sheen. If our Chinese recipes call for “soy sauce,” “regular soy sauce,” or “light soy sauce,” we are always referring to Chinese light soy sauce (shēng chōu, 生抽). It is generally thinner and lighter in color than the familiar (Japanese) Kikkoman you may have seen on dining tables at sushi restaurants and takeout joints. (We’ll get to the differences between Chinese and Japanese soy sauce later in this article.) But some of our recipes call for “light soy sauce,” while others call for just “soy sauce,” and still others call for “dark soy sauce.”Mix with a 1:6 ratio of waterto dilute it into a regular or light soy sauce substitute. This allows control over the saltiness level. Selection tips: Imported Japanese and Korean soy sauce tends to taste the best. For example, Kikkoman soy sauce made in Japan tastes more refined than US-made Kikkoman. Excellent organic shoyu is also exported abroad. Raw, unpasteurized nama shoyu is fabulous too. Selection tips: A little darker than regular Chinese-style soy sauce, Kikkoman soy sauce is a good all-around soy sauce, especially if you're shopping at a regular supermarket. Pearl River Bridge is very good, especially its Gold Label or Premium Label which has been aged a bit longer. Amoy and Lee Kum Kee are terrific too. Some soy sauce, particular ones from Taiwan, have a sweetness due to sugar being in the formulation. Soy sauce from China and Hong Kong have a saltier finish because there's usually no sugar involved. If, however, you have a soy allergy, you can try coconut aminos. We haven’t cooked with coconut aminos, but we hear this salty-sweet condiment is a good alternative for those who need to follow a soy-free diet. Our Favorite Dishes That Feature This Ingredient: The most common types available in the U.S. are Japanese and Chinese. However, we’ve also included some common Southeast Asian kinds:

With some creativity, concentrated and solidified soy sauces can do a whole lot more than just saltiness. Their intense umami and luscious texture open up many possibilities in the kitchen.After the liberation of China, Chinese government wanted to make soy sauce more popular and common in people’s daily life. The Government organized a lot of well-known workshops and experts together and invested a large amount to build soy sauce factories. The traditional technology has improved to produce much better soy sauce with large quantity. From then on, Chinese Soy Sauce becomes famous in the whole world.
