Guest guest Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 I'm having a problem finding Nama Shoyu in the area. Does anyone know of anything else that I could use that has a similar taste? I'm part Japanese and have grown up putting soy sauce on EVERYTHING and I need my shoyu fix! Jenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 Hi Jenn As far as I understand it, 'nama shoyu' (the 'nama' means 'raw') is not actually raw, as, however 'natural' the process of manufacture is, it is nevertheless made from cooked soya beans. The manufacturers call it 'nama', because, unlike most shoyus, it is not pasteurised. I keep seeing it in 'raw' recipes, and that's fine as long as everyone realises it's not raw, because it's made from cooked food just as veg. stock is made from cooked veg. I'd be very happy to be corrected though, or to hear of a shoyu that is not made from cooked soya beans, as I too like the taste of soy sauce!
