About Soy sause

Soy sauce is a liquid condiment originating from East Asia, widely used in Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and other Asian cuisines. Made from a fermented mixture of soybeans, wheat, water, and salt, it delivers a rich umami flavor that enhances dishes like stir-fries, sushi, marinades, and soups. Nutritionally, soy sauce is low in calories and contains small amounts of protein, antioxidants, and essential amino acids. However, it is notably high in sodium, with a single tablespoon containing over 900 mg, making moderation key for individuals managing blood pressure or heart health. It's available in variations such as regular, light, dark, and low-sodium. Select options like reduced-sodium soy sauce or tamari for a healthier alternative. While soy sauce adds depth to meals, its nutritional aspects should be balanced with other ingredients for a well-rounded diet.
