Frequently Asked Questions

What makes "Tamari" different from regular soy sauce?

Traditional soy sauce is brewed with wheat. Tamari is specifically brewed with little to no wheat, resulting in a darker color and a richer, more complex umami flavor. Kikkoman’s version is certified Gluten-Free, providing that premium, savory depth without the allergen risks of standard soy sauce.

How much sodium is actually removed?

This "Less Sodium" version contains approximately 40% less salt than standard soy sauce. Unlike some "low-salt" alternatives that taste watered down, Kikkoman uses a proprietary fermentation process that maintains the full-bodied flavor, ensuring your dishes don't lose their "kick" even as you meet heart-healthy dietary requirements.

Is this suitable for a "Celiac-Safe" kitchen?

Yes. This sauce is Certified Gluten-Free. For Canadian restaurateurs, having a single soy sauce that covers gluten-free, low-sodium, and vegan diets simplifies inventory and significantly reduces the risk of cross-contamination in the kitchen.
