Lovers of Asian cuisine are very familiar with soy sauce, a brown, salty, liquid ingredient used as a condiment or seasoning in many dishes.
Soy sauce is made from fermented soybeans, salt, water and sometimes roasted wheat grains. Thanks to its dark color and umami taste with fruity notes, it is ideal for all kinds of applications.
There is an enormous variety, depending on the ingredients, the method used for their preparation or even their geographical origin. However, they all have in common their basic ingredient, soy, an important allergen.
TRADES S.A. would like to introduce Savor-LyfeTM SSC, a yeast extract derived from the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genus and reinforced with natural flavorings. The result is a light brown, allergen-free powder whose umami and aromatic notes make it incredibly similar to the original product.
Savor-LyfeTM contains no added salt. The characteristics of the yeast extract, added to the typical notes of soy sauce, make it an ideal solution to reduce salt content without compromising taste.
You can add Savor-LyfeTM SSC to soups, sauces, marinades, snacks and spice mixes at a dosage of 0.1-0.4% over the final product, depending on the application and intensity required. You can also create your own alternative to soy sauce by mixing only 3 ingredients: Savor-LyfeTM SSC, salt and sugar. The result will surprise even the most skeptical.
