What it is

Coconut aminos are a savory liquid seasoning made from the sap of the coconut palm tree. The sap is tapped, then fermented and mixed with salt, similar to how soy sauce is made. It has a slightly sweet and salty flavor profile.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use coconut aminos as a soy-free and gluten-free alternative to soy sauce or tamari. It adds a savory, umami flavor to a variety of dishes. It is commonly found in marinades, sauces, dressings, and as a seasoning for vegetables, meats, and tofu.

Health notes

Coconut aminos are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. As a food ingredient, it is consumed in small amounts, and no adverse health effects are expected at typical intake levels. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have not specifically evaluated coconut aminos as a distinct ingredient, but they have evaluated components like coconut sap. Evidence regarding specific health benefits or risks is limited.

Allergen info

Coconut aminos are not derived from any of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. Coconut is botanically a fruit, not a tree nut, and is not considered a major allergen. It is typically gluten-free.
