Soy Sauce and the Gluten Free Diet
Soy sauce is a dark, salty liquid condiment originating from East Asia, produced by fermenting soybeans and wheat with specific molds, yeasts, and bacteria. It is a staple in many Asian dishes and is used for seasoning, marinating, and as a dipping sauce. There are different varieties of soy sauce, such as light, dark, and tamari, each with unique flavor profiles and uses.
