January 16, 2023 By admin Leave a Comment

Soy sauce, shoyu, and tamari are all types of soy sauce, but they have some distinct differences in terms of their ingredients, production methods, and flavor profiles.

Soy sauce is a liquid condiment made from soybeans, wheat, salt, and water. It is a common ingredient in many Asian cuisines and is used to add saltiness and a savory flavor to dishes.

Shoyu is a type of soy sauce that is made in the traditional Japanese method. It is made from soybeans, wheat, salt, and water, but it is fermented for a longer period of time than regular soy sauce, which results in a more complex flavor. It is also typically brewed with less salt and sweeter than regular soy sauce.

Tamari is a type of soy sauce that is made without wheat. It is made from soybeans, salt, and water, and is fermented for a longer period of time than regular soy sauce. It has a thicker consistency, and a richer and deeper flavor than soy sauce.

In summary, soy sauce is a general term for a liquid condiment made from soybeans, wheat, salt, and water, while Shoyu is a type of soy sauce made in the traditional Japanese method, and Tamari is a type of soy sauce that is made without wheat, is gluten-free and typically richer in taste than regular soy sauce.
