Two methods of brewing soy sauce

Two methods of soy sauce brewing are low-salt solid-state fermentation and high-salt dilute fermentation.

1, low-salt solid-state fermentation

Low-salt solid-state fermentation is a production method developed on the basis of salt-free solid-state fermentation. The salt content in fermented soy sauce is lower than 10%, which has little inhibitory effect on enzyme activity. It has obvious advantages such as convenient management, high utilization rate of protein and stable product quality, and is mainly used in soy sauce production. The soy sauce produced by low-salt solid-state fermentation has deep color and delicious taste.

2. High-salt dilute fermentation

High-salt dilute fermentation temperature is relatively low, fermentation time is longer, and yield is relatively low. However, this fermentation method can fully ferment the raw materials and synthesize more flavor substances, and the brewed soy sauce tastes more mellow.

Matters needing attention in the use of soy sauce:

1, control amount: You need to control the amount of seasoning according to your own taste and the amount of food. Add a little soy sauce to taste first. If it tastes right, don't add it.

2. Buy soy sauce that has not expired: Keep your eyes open when buying soy sauce and choose healthy soy sauce that meets production standards. There are many soy sauce brands on the market now. You should look at the ingredient list, choose the products produced by regular manufacturers, and find the production date. The fresher the soy sauce, the higher the safety factor. If the shelf life is near or expired, it can't be used any more.

3. Run out within the shelf life: Soy sauce has a shelf life. Most soy sauces have a shelf life of only a few months. When buying soy sauce, you should choose the appropriate capacity according to your own consumption. Don't buy a large bottle of soy sauce at one time, and make sure it is used up within the shelf life.
