5 soy sauces recommended for steak
Shokunin Shoyu No.
This is my top recommendation!!
Kikusho is a traditional dark soy sauce with a sharp taste. The saltiness and umami of the soy sauce hits you first, followed by the sweetness and umami of the fat of the meat. The balance is overwhelming! This is a popular choice among our steak-loving overseas customers.
Made from black soybeans for a light yet sharp taste
Made with large Tanba black beans that are rich in umami, this is a classic with a noble fragrance and a sharp flavor. It is prepared in a wooden barrel, giving it a light taste and beautiful color. It goes perfectly with rice topped with raw egg.
If you want something refreshing, this is it!
I had the image of meat being paired with rich soy sauce, so I would recommend the light purple, which is a bit surprising. The wasabi soy sauce is light and refreshing. The umami of the meat hits you directly. If you want to taste some good meat, please give it a try.
Light soy sauce that brings out the best in the ingredients
This light soy sauce is perfect for pouring over food. It brings out the flavor and taste of the ingredients, so it's sure to be a different taste experience than regular soy sauce. The light soy sauce's unique saltiness is mellowed out with the addition of rice koji.
For those looking for richness and mellowness
For those who want a rich flavor that stands up to the meat, but don't want the soy sauce aroma or saltiness to be too prominent, we recommend Kyotanba Rokuemon, which is blended with miso tamari. It has a rich yet mellow flavor that fully envelops the umami of the meat.
A blend of black bean miso and soy sauce
A luxurious blend of the clear top layer of black soybean miso from Tanba. It gives the impression of being a slightly rich soy sauce with a rich umami flavor. It can be used as a dipping sauce, and also when used with meat dishes, it brings out the richness of the miso that cannot be expressed with soy sauce alone.
Rich soy sauce definitely goes well with it!
Don't forget the rich soy sauce that stands up to the fat and umami of the meat. It is especially recommended for making wasabi soy sauce. Even if you add butter or garlic, it will still take advantage of the soy sauce's presence and make the steak more delicious.
This richness rivals steak
This is one of the richest varieties among the re-brewed varieties, and some people either love it or hate it. It is so rich that it theoretically does not ferment. It can be used as a melted butter sauce for steaks or as a substitute for oyster sauce for mapo tofu.
Gluten-free soy sauce also goes well with meat
If overseas visitors request gluten-free soy sauce, we recommend tamari soy sauce. It has top-class umami flavor and goes well with meat. It also goes well with wasabi, so we recommend it.
There are many passionate fans of the rich taste
This sake is made only from soybeans and salt. It does not contain any wheat. It has the richest flavor of all the sakes made with less water and a long maturation period. It has a good balance of saltiness and umami. It is also good for dishes that require heat.
