About Tamari or soy sauce

Tamari and soy sauce are flavorful condiments originating from East Asian cuisine, commonly used to enhance savory dishes. Both are made from fermented soybeans, with tamari often containing little to no wheat, making it a popular gluten-free option. Soy sauce, on the other hand, typically includes wheat and has a thinner consistency. These sauces are rich in umami and offer small amounts of protein, antioxidants, and minerals like potassium. However, they are high in sodium, which could be a concern for those monitoring their salt intake. Asian cuisines frequently incorporate tamari or soy sauce into stir-fries, marinades, and dipping sauces. While their robust taste can reduce the need for additional salt, moderation is key to maintaining a balanced diet. Choose low-sodium varieties whenever possible for a healthier option.
