What it is

Organic shoyu is a type of soy sauce made from organically grown soybeans, wheat, salt, and water. It is brewed through a fermentation process similar to traditional soy sauce, but uses only certified organic ingredients.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use organic shoyu primarily as a flavoring agent, adding a savory, umami taste to foods. It is commonly found in Asian dishes, marinades, dressings, and sauces.

Health notes

Organic shoyu is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. The FDA has evaluated soy sauce and its components. JECFA has evaluated soy sauce and established an acceptable daily intake. Evidence on the health effects of soy sauce consumption at typical dietary levels is mixed, with some studies suggesting potential benefits and others raising concerns about high sodium intake.

Allergen info

Organic shoyu contains soy and wheat, both of which are major allergens recognized by the FDA. It also contains gluten from the wheat.
