What it is

Fried rice sauce is a savory liquid seasoning used to flavor fried rice and other Asian-inspired dishes. It is typically made from a base of soy sauce, often combined with ingredients like rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and sometimes sugar or other sweeteners.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use fried rice sauce to add a rich, umami flavor and a glossy appearance to foods. It is commonly found in pre-made fried rice, stir-fries, marinades, and dipping sauces.

Health notes

Fried rice sauce is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. The primary ingredients like soy sauce and vinegar are common food items with long histories of use. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated many of the individual components of such sauces. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption levels.

Allergen info

Fried rice sauce may contain soy and wheat, which are two of the nine major allergens. It is not derived from milk, egg, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, or sesame. Gluten may be present if wheat is an ingredient.
