Kikkoman Soy Sauce, 40 oz Bottle

It's must-have for my rice and beans ... with lima beans, or most often w light-red kidney beans, and characteristically w Italian sausage or bratwurst. It goes on last with dried garlic. My positive estimation was intact when I saw the America's Test Kitchen episode on soy sauces ... Compared with the remaining assortment of East Asian popular brands, their American-taste evaluation (each of them) rated Kikkoman Soy Sauce - brewed in Milwaukee - clear!y *the best*. I know they're not all the same. I one time bought a large bottle of light-amber soy sauce from the Philippines ... and it was not right for me - as if much diluted, w then more salt. Maybe there's cultural preferences. And for me, Kikkoman (regular) is my *every day* staple.

There are some food products that one can buy in generic or alternate discount brands. But, soy sauce is not one of them. There is a difference. Is it salty, yes. That is the nature of soy sauce, but, not excessively. There is a deeper, more developed flavor in higher-quality (and, unfortunately, more expensive) soy sauces. Kikkoman has a very approachable flavor, not too rich or thick. A good go-to sauce for a variety of recipes or as a condiment.

I really love Kikkoman soy sauce. I've tried the other brands, but I can taste the difference between the Kikkoman variety and the others. Unlike other soy sauces, which I need to heat to make more palatable and get rid of the raw taste, the Kikkoman soy sauce I use as is. It just seems more palatable and refined. I use other soy sauces, but this brand is both a table, marinating, and cooking soy sauce. The other brands of soy sauce I strictly use for marinating or cooking.

I grew up using Kikoman and La choy soy sauce but prefer Kikoman. I cook with it and use it plain on my rice and also on cucumbers. I've tried other brands but always return to Kikoman.

I grew up on Oahu. One of the absolute best recipes I ever learned was Ma's Teriyaki Marinade. Only 5 ingredients, never fails. Best overnight if marinating meat to cook on the grill. Things like Chicken Wings can be cooked straight from the freezer on the stove. Most important ingredient is Kikkoman Soy Sauce! There is no other substitute. It won't come out right unless you use Kikkoman!

Is it the best of the best? No. However, it is hands down the best of any that is reasonable priced soy sauce. Being traditionally brewed means it was a long, natural fermentation of simple ingredients that gives it a more complex, balanced flavor over other soy sauces that may rely on chemical processing or additives. | |In short, this is a real, pure soy, with all the depth and nuances that comes with being a real traditionally brewed soy sauce that helps elevate dishes rather than just adding a splash of flavor.

This is the soy sauce I keep coming back to because it just works. Good salty depth without tasting harsh, and it goes with everything from stir fry to rice to marinades. Nothing trendy here, just the one that gets used.

Well-known brand. One of the best soy sauce on the consumer market. I use this size to refill my table size pourers. It can add a delicious flavor to any dish, especially meats and vegetables. Cannot live without it. This size is most economical.?

I eat a lot of Asian type cooking and only Kikkoman gives me the flavor I've come to count on over the years.I have tried so many other brands in this part of the world and none of them compare to Kikkoman.Now with Walmart I pay one third the supermarket price and you send it right to my door!Im about to save more money on my over-the-counter allergy medication at wall mart too.Stock up and save at Walmart!

The ingredients are the same, it says "traditionally brewed" on the label, and yet it tasted majorly different. I can't eat fresh produce and sushi with it, it can only be used for cooking to reduce the intensity. Won't buy again
