Soy & Tamari
While some may think of soy sauce as that salty dip for sushi, it’s so much more than that. Soy sauce can enhance the taste of meat, fish, or vegetables, and add a perfect savory flavor.
Soy and Tamari: What’s the Difference?
Tamari is a bit different from traditional soy sauce. Often, Japanese tamari is thicker and a bit less salty than its Chinese soy sauce counterpart.
That being said, both soy and tamari sauces are incredibly versatile and delicious ingredients to have on hand. Whether you’re whipping up an Asian-style stir-fry, or would like to add a savory taste to a non-Asian dish, you’ll be reaching for the soy or tamari sauce.
