Kikkoman Soy Sauce, 2 qt

Kikkoman Soy Sauce, 64 oz is made using a traditional naturally brewed process with a short, time-tested ingredient list. The foundation of the sauce is water, combined with soybeans and wheat, which are fermented together to develop depth, aroma, and the signature umami flavor. Salt is added to balance the fermentation and provide preservation.

During the natural brewing process, the soybeans and wheat are cultured and aged, allowing flavors to develop gradually rather than being chemically produced. The result is a smooth, well-rounded soy sauce with a balanced salty profile and mild sweetness.

This product contains soy and wheat ingredients and includes no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives, reflecting Kikkoman’s classic, naturally brewed soy sauce formulation suitable for cooking, marinating, and table use.
