Frequently Asked Questions
Does this taste different from regular soy sauce?
Lee Kum Kee has designed this blend to be virtually indistinguishable from their premium standard soy sauce. It maintains the same salty, savory, and slightly sweet fermented notes required for authentic cooking.
Is it 100% safe for Celiacs?
Yes. It is certified Gluten-Free and produced under strict quality control standards to ensure no cross-contamination with wheat-based products.
Can I use a pump with this jug?
Yes! The 1.9L jug features a standard industrial neck that is compatible with most universal condiment pumps, making it perfect for high-speed prep stations.

How does Lee Kum Kee make soy sauce gluten-free if the traditional recipe uses wheat? Traditional soy sauce is made from a combination of soybeans and roasted wheat. Lee Kum Kee replaces the wheat with high-quality corn starch or rice (depending on the specific batch formulation) and utilizes a specialized fermentation process that recreates the exact umami flavor profile of wheat-based soy sauce without the gluten proteins.
Is there MSG or artificial coloring in this sauce? No. Lee Kum Kee Gluten-Free Soy Sauce contains no added MSG, no artificial colors, and no added preservatives. It relies on the natural mahogany color and savory depth achieved through the fermentation process.
What is the shelf life of the 1.9L jug once it is opened? Because of its high salt content, soy sauce is naturally stable. However, to maintain the delicate aromatic "high notes" and prevent the sauce from oxidizing (turning darker and saltier), we recommend refrigeration after opening. When kept chilled, it will maintain its peak quality for 6 to 9 months.
