Homemade Soy Sauce from Scratch

I have more than just homemade soy sauce from scratch, check out more homemade recipes at the end of the page.

This sauce is so tasty and makes your good meals; outstanding. The flavor is rich and flavorful. It is so easy to make. I’ve included my homemade vegan soy sauce recipe below.

This is the description of what soy sauce is at wikipedia.org:

Soy sauce is a condiment made from a fermented paste of boiled soybeans, roasted grain, brine, and Aspergillus oryzae or Aspergillus sojae molds. After fermentation, the paste is pressed, producing a liquid, which is the soy sauce, and a solid byproduct, which is often used as animal feed.

I am so thankful that I make my own – I bet you are happy you came across this page aren’t you?

Homemade Soy Sauce from Scratch

Here’s my homemade recipe for soy sauce. It’s delicious.

1-1/2 cups boiling water
4 TBS beef bouillon granules (lower sodium works too)
4 TBS cider vinegar
1 TBS dark molasses
1 tsp sesame seed oil
pinch of black pepper

Whisk all ingredients together until dissolved and pour into a bottle with a tightly sealed top. May be refrigerated indefinitely. Makes 2 cups. 

You could also pour into a glass bottle and wrap with a ribbon – this also makes a great gift.
