About Lobster sauce

Lobster Sauce, commonly found in Chinese-American cuisine, is a rich, savory condiment typically served with seafood dishes or fried rice. Despite its name, it often contains little to no lobster; instead, the primary ingredients are ground pork, garlic, soy sauce, fermented black beans, chicken or seafood stock, and sometimes eggs for thickening. The sauce is flavored with salt, sugar, and other spices to balance its umami profile. While Lobster Sauce is relatively low in calories, its high sodium content from soy sauce and added salt may not be ideal for those watching their sodium intake. The inclusion of protein from pork and eggs can offer nutritional benefits, but it is not particularly rich in vitamins or fiber. Moderation is recommended if consumed regularly, especially for individuals seeking to limit processed ingredients or excess salt.
