About Sauce soja
Soy sauce, or sauce soja, is a liquid condiment originating from East Asia, particularly China, and widely used in Japanese, Korean, and other Asian cuisines. Made from fermented soybeans, wheat, salt, and water, its savory umami flavor enhances dishes ranging from stir-fries and marinades to soups and sushi. Variations like light, dark, and reduced-sodium soy sauces cater to different culinary needs. While soy sauce is low in calories and contains small amounts of protein, it is high in sodium, with a tablespoon providing over 40% of the daily recommended intake. Excessive consumption may contribute to high blood pressure and other health concerns. However, its strong flavor allows for minimal use, making it an effective way to elevate taste without heavy calorie additions. Those with wheat allergies or gluten sensitivities can opt for tamari, a gluten-free alternative similar in taste and texture. Moderation is key for enjoying soy sauce healthfully.
