Clearspring Organic Tamari Soya Sauce 150ml - single strength details and description
Clearspring Organic Tamari is single-strength, gluten free soya sauce made using organic whole soya beans and uses twice as many beans for each bottle as ordinary soya sauces. This high proportion of soya beans results in a smoother and more balanced flavour. Clearspring’s single strength Tamari is made in Japan by their new producer who has been brewing soya sauce for half a century at the foot of Mount Ena in the southernmost part of the Japanese Alps. Made from whole soya beans, Clearspring Single-Strength Tamari is fermented using traditional methods and aged for 9 months. It’s perfect as a dipping sauce, as a traditional accompaniment to sushi and sashimi, and can be used as a condiment to give depth of savoury flavour to salad dressings, marinades, sauces, stir fries and cooked fish, poultry, meat and vegetable dishes.
Single strength tamari is 10 parts soya to 12 parts water and has been fermented for 9 months.
Soya sauce is a store cupboard essential and is used as an ingredient in a variety of dishes, but just how important is the quality of soya sauce you use? Can a cheap alternative be just as good? The short answer is no. For an authentic Japanese taste with maximum flavour, it’s worth investing in a high quality soya sauce such as our Clearspring Organic Tamari – a little will go a long way.
Clearspring Organic Japanese Tamari Soya Sauce is dairy free, egg free, lactose free, gluten free, organic and vegan.
A tiny portion of roasted barley flour is used in the process of making Clearspring Orgnic Tamari Soya Sauce. Yet, in the light of gluten testing carried out, Clearspring is able to confirm that the long fermentation and ageing processes that Clearspring Organic Tamari Soya Sauce undergoes, eliminates the gluten proteins present in the barley. Following these results, the Coeliac Society has decided to include Clearspring Organic Tamari Soya Sauce in their gluten free directory.
Ingredients: water, Whole soya beans* (33%), sea salt, shochu* (water, cultured rice*, salt), roasted soya beans * (2.5%) *Organically grown
Sophie's comment
We decided to stock tamari soy sauce having discovered that it was one of the ingredients strongly recommended by Ella Woodward of Deliciously Ella fame. We all enjoy her book at Steenbergs and enjoy experimenting with some of her recipes.
