Kikkoman Less Sodium Soy Sauce

Kikkoman's Less Sodium Soy Sauce with its rich flavor, appetizing aroma, and distinctive amber color adds depth and appeal to all kinds of dishes Asian and beyond. Kikkoman Less Sodium Soy Sauce is brewed exactly the same way as all-purpose Kikkoman Soy Sauce. However, after the fermentation process is completed, approximately 40% of the salt is removed. Although there is less sodium, all the flavor and quality characteristics remain because it is aged before extracting the salt. Try it in your poke bowl or any other place you use soy sauce.

There is a reason Kikkoman is a favorite among sushi chefs and restaurants across the world. Kikkoman started in Japan and has been perfecting their craft for hundreds of years. They use a traditional Japanese brewing method known as "honjozo" which is a natural brewing process using fermentation and only the best ingredients, including the original Kikkoman Aspergillus, which is a type of Koji mold (and a carefully guarded secret) that kicks off the fermentation process. Koji mold is perfectly safe and is designated as Japan's national fungus. It helps breakdown the soybeans to make Koji, the basis of soy sauce.
