Does anyone know of an alternative to soy sauce?!


Question: Does anyone know of an alternative to soy sauce!?
Regular soy sauce is loaded with sodium, and even the lower sodium kind is pretty salty!. I just wondered if anyone used something healthier as a substitute!? Or does anyone make their own!? And if so, how do you do it!?

Thanks!Www@FoodAQ@Com

When I go out for Japenese food I always use the low sodium soy sauce, becauase I prefer the taste of the low sodium compared to the regular!. When I make my peppered steak I use Dales Steak Sauce instead of soy because I think the flavor taste better, I have never had any complaints about my pepered steak!. You can also try oyster sauce that what they use to make fried rice!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

soy sauce is a fermented sauce and/or fungus made from soybeans, roasted grain, water and salt!. i guess salt is used to prevent it from getting spoiled! no fermentation using water and salt, no soy sauce!. low sodium soy sauce might be the way to go!. you may want to use it over foods that really needs salt IE; over unsalted steam rice and vegetables!. you may be able to mix it with lemon juice and use it over seafood IE; fish!. could use it as a substitute for salt as much as possible! peaceWww@FoodAQ@Com

I don't know if you'll find anything to really substitute it, you can maybe try a health food store!. I shop at Henry's and the workers always have great advice for me in substituting foods!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You can try Bragg liquid amino, which still has 110 mg sodium per 1/2 teaspoon but it has no salt added!.

Most health food stores will carry it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I have got away with Worcestershire sauce, in stir fry's!.
The fusion of ginger and five spice actually compliments it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
