Recipe
Cooking tips
- Since the soy sauce is not boiled, the container and utensils must be completely dry and clean to prevent contamination.
- You can begin using the sauce at least one month after preparation; it develops a rich, clinging umami flavor.
- After three months of aging, strain out the kombu and shiitake mushrooms, then store the clear soy sauce separately for best results.
Recommended for
- Home cooks who struggle to achieve depth of flavor in broths or seasonings every time they cook.
- Those who want to enhance their dishes' umami richness with minimal effort through simple aging, without complex preparation.
