About Ketjap sauce

Ketjap sauce, commonly known as kecap, is a thick, sweet soy sauce originating from Indonesian cuisine. Traditionally made from fermented soybeans, palm sugar, and a blend of spices, ketjap provides a rich, umami flavor with hints of sweetness, often used to enhance stir-fries, marinades, and dipping sauces. While it’s a staple in Southeast Asian cooking, ketjap is also popular worldwide due to its versatile flavor profile. Nutritionally, ketjap offers some benefits, like the protein content from soybeans; however, it tends to be high in sugar and sodium, so moderation is key, especially for individuals managing blood sugar levels or hypertension. This flavorful condiment adds depth to dishes and can be a delightful addition to balanced meals when used thoughtfully.
