Soy sauce, or "Sojasosse," is a liquid condiment originating from East Asian cuisine, believed to have been first developed in ancient China. Made from fermented soybeans, wheat, water, and salt, it delivers a rich, savory umami flavor that enhances a wide range of dishes. Low in calories and containing some protein and antioxidants due to fermentation, soy sauce can offer minor health benefits when used in moderation. However, it is very high in sodium, which may be a concern for those monitoring their salt intake. There are various types, including light, dark, and low-sodium varieties, each suited for different culinary applications. Commonly used in marinades, stir-fries, dipping sauces, and soups, soy sauce is a staple in Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and Southeast Asian cooking, while also being embraced in global fusion cuisine. Always check labels for gluten-free or reduced-sodium options to better suit dietary needs.
