Thanks to its excellent taste and amazing versatility, soy sauce is now popular all over the world. It is used everywhere – from marinating meat to cooking unusual Asian desserts. This is a great base for salad dressings – especially when combined with lemon juice, mustard, aromatic spices and fresh herbs. You can marinate meat or chicken in it so that they are juicier, more tender and tastier. Dishes with soy sauce are baked with a beautiful golden crust. You can even make a crispy glaze from it, just by adding a little honey.
How to Use Soy Sauce?
Soy sauce is added to noodles, stewed vegetables, soups and wherever salt is needed. It is a natural flavor enhancer that has no analogues. Dark types are more saturated and concentrated, so they also give an expressive shade. Soy sauce is served with rice, rolls and sushi. Japanese, Chinese and Korean cuisine consists almost entirely of dishes with soy sauce. Other popular additives are also prepared on its basis – for example, unagi or teriyaki!
Types of Soy Sauce
There are two types of soy sauce — light and dark, which differ in the fermentation period. Dark sauce has a longer exposure, it is sharper, thicker and sharper, so it is used for marinating meat and served with sushi. Salads are seasoned with a saltier light sauce, light and pleasant to the taste, meat and fish dishes, seafood, rice, pasta and vegetable stews are watered.
It’s hard to say which soy sauce is the most delicious, because everyone has their own preferences, the most important thing is to choose a high—quality and healthy sauce. It is enough to remember a few rules — a good soy sauce is sold only in transparent glass bottles, and the product should contain the following ingredients: soybeans, wheat, salt, sugar and vinegar.
Real soy sauce is brown and at the same time transparent, there is no sediment in it, and the protein content is about 6-8%.
So imperceptibly, the exotic sauce has become one of the favorite condiments around the world, and its low calorie content has turned it into a popular dietary salad dressing instead of butter, sour cream and mayonnaise.
A light healthy dish. It is suitable both for a festive table (especially since the New Year is coming soon according to the Chinese calendar) and for every day. It is prepared very quickly and easily, and naturally prepared soy sauce gives this dish a unique taste.
I love funchosa (fun-Tu-JI) – rice noodles, because of its excellent qualities: firstly, it is low in calories, and secondly, it promotes good digestion. Rice noodles have also long been considered a means to restore strength, maintain sexual energy and longevity. According to legend, this dish is regularly eaten by Japanese ninja warriors. An interesting dressing is being prepared for the salad, and oriental spices give a special taste and aroma…

We always cook the tongue for the New Year, and almost always a quarter is not eaten. And for three years now, I’ve been putting a piece on purpose so that I can cook this salad later. Incredibly delicious and light. Tender boiled tongue, crispy vegetables, spicy onions. I highly recommend it. By the way, there is a stalked celery in the original, but we are not fans of this wonderful vegetable.
I suggest cooking vegetables with meat in Chinese. Sweet and sour sauce and ginger give this dish a special taste. Vegetables turn out very tasty and fragrant.
