What it is

Wheat-free tamari is a type of soy sauce that does not contain wheat. It is brewed from soybeans, salt, and water, with the fermentation process often taking longer than traditional soy sauce. This results in a darker color and a richer, less salty flavor.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use wheat-free tamari as a flavorful seasoning and umami enhancer in a variety of dishes. It is commonly found in gluten-free products, marinades, stir-fries, and as a dipping sauce.

Health notes

Wheat-free tamari is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. It is a fermented product and contains sodium, so moderation is advised for individuals monitoring their salt intake. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar fermented soy products.

Allergen info

Wheat-free tamari is derived from soy, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It is specifically formulated to be wheat-free, so it does not contain wheat allergens.
