Broth Base Tamari

Tamari is a type of soy sauce, traditionally made with more soybeans and less wheat than standard soy sauce. It is brewed through a fermentation process similar to soy sauce, resulting in a rich, umami flavor.

Tamari is used as a savory seasoning and flavor enhancer in a variety of dishes. It's often found in Asian-inspired cuisine, marinades, sauces, and as a dipping sauce. Manufacturers use it to add a deep, complex salty and savory taste to foods.

Tamari is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of sodium, and like other soy products, it contains isoflavones, which are plant compounds with potential health effects. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated soy products, but specific evaluations for tamari as a distinct ingredient are not widely published. Evidence on the health effects of soy isoflavones is mixed, with some studies suggesting benefits and others showing no effect.
