\n Soy Sauce and Sodium\n <\/h2>\n<\/div>
\n
\n

\n Traditionally brewed Kikkoman\u00ae Soy Sauce is already a great replacement for salt, adding both saltiness and umami\u2014something salt alone can\u2019t provide\u2014while containing only a fraction of salt\u2019s sodium content. Simply replacing salt with Kikkoman Soy Sauce can help you reduce sodium levels across your menu.\n <\/p>\n

\n If you\u2019re looking to cut sodium even further, we offer two reduced-sodium options: Kikkoman Less Sodium Soy Sauce and 40% Less Sodium Gluten-Free Tamari Soy Sauce. We don\u2019t simply dilute our soy sauce or tamari with water. Instead, we follow our traditional brewing process and then remove sodium after brewing, retaining full flavor and umami. This means you can use these products in any recipe that calls for regular soy sauce, significantly reducing sodium without sacrificing taste.\n <\/p>\n
