2. Distinctive Deepened Flavor -Authentic Koikuchi soy sauce has four kinds of highly delicate tastes behind its natural saltness. Deep umami, mellow sweetness, refreshing sourness, and elegant bitterness. When blended with other sauces like steak sauce or used for boiled recipes such as gumbo and Jambalaya, the symphony of five tastes brings out the natural tastes of other ingredients.
