Japanese 500ml Cooking Restaurant Natural Brewed Halal Sweet Soy Sauce

The advantages of TSY sweet soy sauce are very unique. It is not a simple substitute for ordinary soy sauce, but an "upgraded" seasoning with complex flavors and diverse functions. Its advantages can be analyzed from three dimensions: cooking, flavor and practicality.

I. Advantages in flavor and texture

Complex taste, rich in layers

Ordinary soy sauce mainly offers salty and fresh flavors, while TSY sweet soy sauce perfectly combines the three basic tastes of "salty, fresh and sweet". This complex texture can instantly enhance the flavor profile of the dish and prevent it from having a monotonous taste.

Mellow and smooth, it relieves irritation

The sugar in it can effectively neutralize the "saltiness and astringency" and acidity of soy sauce itself, making the taste more mellow and smooth. Even if you accidentally use a little more, it's not as salty as regular soy sauce.

It offers a unique aroma of caramel and malt

Especially Indonesian sweet soy sauce, due to the use of palm sugar or brown sugar and its simmering process, has a unique aroma of caramel, toffee and even a hint of spices, which is something that ordinary soy sauce cannot offer.

Ii. Culinary and Functional Advantages

Outstanding coloring ability

TSY sweet soy sauce contains sugar and undergoes the "Maillard reaction" and "caramelization reaction" when heated. This can give meat and dishes a very inviting red luster and deep brown color, making them look very appetizing (such as the luster of teriyaki chicken cutlets).

Natural thickening and thickening effect

Because of its inherently thick texture, TSY sweet soy sauce can better adhere to the surface of the ingredients, allowing the sauce to firmly wrap around the food. In this way, every bite offers a rich flavor, making it particularly suitable for fried rice, fried noodles, barbecues and dipping.

Simplify the cooking process

For recipes that require both soy sauce and sugar (such as braised, teriyaki, sweet and sour), using TSY sweet soy sauce can "get it done in one step", eliminating the need to weigh sugar and soy sauce separately, reducing the number of seasonings, and making cooking more convenient.

Excellent marinades and baking sauces

As a marinade, sugar can help soften the meat and make the final product have a better color. As a barbecue sauce, it can form a delicious and shiny crust.

Iii. Practical and Experiential Advantages

Save the "clumsy hands" and reduce the failure rate

For novice chefs who are not good at controlling the ratio of sugar to salt, sweet soy sauce offers a safe option with a stable flavor that is neither too salty nor too sweet, significantly reducing the risk of seasoning mistakes.

Inspire creativity and create new flavors

It is a "catalyst" for developing new dishes. Whether it's making new dipping sauces, creating marinades that blend flavors, or infusing new ideas into traditional home-cooked dishes, sweet soy sauce can always bring surprises.

Meet diverse dietary needs

This interwoven flavor of salty and sweet is highly in line with the traditional taste preferences of many Asian regions, especially in Southeast Asian and East Asian cuisines, where it is almost an indispensable soul.

The following are the main uses of TSY sweet soy sauce, which are classified into different scenarios and functions:

First, as a core seasoning, it endows the dish with a soul

This is the most classic usage of sweet soy sauce, especially in Southeast Asian cuisine.

The soul of Indonesian and Malay cuisine

Fried rice and fried noodles: They are essential seasonings for Indonesian fried rice and Malay fried noodles, offering the signature dark sauce color and a salty and sweet base flavor.

Satay: It serves as both the marinade for satay skewers and the base for their dipping sauce, giving the grilled skewers an inviting luster and sweet aroma.

Stews and grilled meats: Used in various stews and grilled meats, such as Indonesian Padong beef, it enriches the flavor layers.

The essence of Japanese teriyaki flavor

Teriyaki series: Although it often appears in the form of "teriyaki sauce", its essence is Japanese sweet soy sauce. It is used to make teriyaki chicken cutlets, teriyaki salmon, etc., to form a shiny and inviting sauce film on the surface of the dishes.

Second, it can be used as a dipping sauce or cold dressing to directly enhance the flavor

Excellent dipping sauce

Satay dipping sauce: Mix with peanut butter, chili peppers, etc. to make a classic satay peanut dipping sauce.

Dumpling and dim sum dipping sauce: Mix with minced garlic, chili rings or vinegar to provide a unique dipping sauce for dumplings, spring rolls and fried foods.

In Taiwan and South China, sweet sauce is the top choice for dipping white-cut chicken and white-cut pork.

Delicious cold dressing

Cold noodles and cold vermicelli: They provide the basic sweet and salty flavors for Indonesian cold dishes, Yunnan cold rice noodles, etc.

Salad dressing: It can be mixed with lemon juice, oil and garlic to make an Asian-style salad dressing.

Third, as a marinade and barbecue sauce, it enhances the flavor profile

High-efficiency marinade

The sugar in TSY sweet soy sauce can undergo a "Maillard reaction" with protein, generating a smoky aroma and an inviting reddish-brown color during cooking.

It is used for marinating chicken, pork, beef and tofu, making the ingredients more flavorful and the color more beautiful after roasting or frying.

Delicious barbecue sauce

During the barbecue process, it can be directly brushed on the surface of meat skewers and chicken wings and used as barbecue sauce. Its thick texture can adhere well to food, forming a delicious crust.

Fourth, as a "secret weapon", it adds color and flavor to home-cooked dishes

Even if not used in international cuisine, sweet soy sauce can still shine brightly in Chinese home-cooked dishes.

Braised and marinated foods: When braising pork, marinated eggs, and marinated chicken legs, adding a small amount of sweet soy sauce (or directly using it to replace part of the dark soy sauce and sugar) can make the color more rosy and the flavor more mellow.

Sweet and sour dishes: As one of the bases for sweet and sour sauce, it simplifies the seasoning steps.

Balance the saltiness: When a dish is accidentally made too salty, you can add a little sweet soy sauce to use its sweetness to balance and moderate the saltiness.

Dipping boiled eggs or tofu in water: A simple yet delicious way of eating, which can greatly enhance the flavor of the food.

Tips for Use

Note the sugar content: As TSY sweet soy sauce has a high sugar content and is prone to burning, it is recommended to use medium-low heat when frying or stir-frying, or add it just before the dish is ready to be served.

Reduce salt as appropriate: When using sweet soy sauce, the amount of other salty seasonings in the recipe (such as salt and regular soy sauce) should be appropriately reduced.

Alternative solution: If sweet soy sauce is not available, you can mix 1 part regular soy sauce with 0.5 to 1 part brown sugar/honey and simmer over low heat until it thickens slightly as a substitute.

In summary, TSY sweet soy sauce is a highly distinctive "flavor enhancer". It can not only independently play the leading role in the taste of dishes, but also serve as a golden supporting role, bringing deep colors, complex textures and alluring luster to various dishes.

Q: Is TSY soy sauce purely naturally brewed? Are there any additives?

They are made from only water, non-GMO defatted soybeans, wheat, table salt (iodine-free), and white granulated sugar, and are fermented for a full period. Our "Zero Additive" series of products guarantee that no preservatives, monosodium glutamate, colorants or sweeteners are added.

Q: What is the most fundamental difference between light soy sauce and dark soy sauce?

A: The simplest way to distinguish

Light soy sauce: It is mainly used for seasoning and enhancing freshness. It has a light color and a strong salty taste, and is used for stir-frying, cold dishes, and dipping.

Dark soy sauce: It mainly serves to enhance color, has a deep hue, and a caramel sweetness. It is used in braising, marinating, and stewing.

Q: How to store soy sauce? Does it need to be refrigerated after opening?

A: It is recommended to store soy sauce in a cool and dark place. After opening, to ensure the best flavor and quality, we strongly recommend refrigerating. Refrigeration can slow down the oxidation and fermentation process of soy sauce, prevent flavor loss and the growth of microorganisms at the bottle mouth.

Q: Sometimes white crystals or sediment appear at the mouth of the soy sauce bottle. Does it mean it has gone bad?

A: Please rest assured that this is usually amino acid salt crystallization, a natural phenomenon where the abundant amino acids in soy sauce precipitate at low temperatures or high concentrations. It is one of the signs of pure grain brewing and is harmless to the human body, allowing for normal consumption. Shake well until well combined.

Q: How long is the shelf life of TSY soy sauce?

A: The shelf life of unopened TSY soy sauce is generally 24 months. For the exact date, please refer to the product bottle. After opening, it is recommended to use it up within 3 months to achieve the best flavor.
