03. Saishikomi soy sauce 100ml

Dark-colored but not salty soy sauce

"It's a deep, shiny soy sauce, but it's not as salty as it looks," is what our customers say about this soy sauce. It's a re-brewed soy sauce that has been aged for a long time. It looks quite deep. When combined with the ingredients, it gives off a strong color, but it doesn't make the flavor too strong or salty, and instead adds a strong umami flavor.

Curry Rice

When it comes to secret ingredients in curry, there are coffee and chocolate. And there are various condiments that are added afterwards, such as sauce and mayonnaise. For those who like soy sauce, it may be a standard way of using it, but I think that adding soy sauce to curry is perfectly fine.

Serve the curry on a plate and enjoy it as is. Next, add a little soy sauce and let it soak in before enjoying. The richness and fullness of the soy sauce will bring out the depth of flavor and improve the taste of the curry. If you feel like instant curry is not satisfying enough, give this a try.

Vanilla Ice Cream

When vanilla ice cream is combined with re-brewed soy sauce, it often ends up with a mitarashi or caramel flavor, but this "Saishikomi Shoyu" is actually coffee flavored! It's sure to be a little different from other re-brewed soy sauces.

Soy sauce is made by nature

The brewer is Aritaya in Gunma Prefecture, a long-established company founded in 1832. The brewery values ​​carefully selecting ingredients and creating soy sauce that brings out the flavor of the ingredients "in their natural state."

"Naturally brewed soy sauce made with whole soybeans," which is made by letting the naturally brewed mash sit for two years. They continue to protect their "Saishikomi Soy Sauce," which is made by adding koji and fermenting and aging it for over a year. "I can't forget the taste of the homemade soy sauce I had as a child, but it's hard to get back to that point," says president Yasutake Yuasa. I believe that sincere brewing is still taking place today in Joshu, a land of beautiful mountains and pure water.
