I hate feeling icky from lots of sodium and when I saw this recipe I knew I wanted to make it. It was great to dip my sushi in. I will use this all the time, so I will be making it often!

Works really well when making marinades using soy sauce. I see many uses for this in the future whenever I make Asian recipes.

I like that this is low sodium and since making it I have used it many times. We love it for Japanese, Chinese and other Asian entrees, and we don't miss the salt at all.

I made half a recipe of it to see if we would like it. It passed the test and we use it on a wide variety of dishes when calling for soy sauce. We eat Asian influenced meals all the time so this is fast becoming a necessity with us!
