Sweet Soy Sauce

Made from fermented black soya beans, grain, mould and palm sugar, this has a much thicker consistency and sweeter taste than regular soy. The Thais refer to it as ‘sweet soy sauce’ and Malaysia/Indonesia brand it under ‘kecap manis’. You can use both products interchangeably. It’s an extremely valued condiment for instant dipping sauces, dressings, stir-fry sauce or marinades balanced out with a little rice vinegar, chilli or lime.
