Pearl River BridgeSuperior Light Soy Sauce, Premium Chinese Soy Sauce, Golden Label Superior Light Soy Sauce, 16.9 oz

We love it. The experience is amazing already while you cook your meal, because the aroma is so strong. And on the table? Excellent ingredient for almost any meal

This is thicker than soy sauce it has a more unami taste, it is so delicious on shrimp and chicken. It's a big bottle it's easy to use it is good quality and it gives just the right amount of sodium to your food without adding salt

I got on to Pearl River Bridge a couple years ago and have not looked back since.This Dark Soy sauce is packed with tons of umami and the flavor is very complex but not overpowering.I combine it with Pearl River Bridge Golden Label Superior Light Soy Sauce for most of my vegetables, stir fries, fried rice, and noodles.The flavor bomb that goes off in your mouth is nothing short of magical.You will not be buying grocery store soy sauce anymore after you've tried this.

I have recently started to make some Asian recipes and some have called for dark soy sauce to add umami, so I bought this one based on cooking website recommendations and reviewer comments. It tastes nothing like regular soy sauce, it's more pungent and earthy tasting. You can tell that it's flavor is designed to work with other flavors in your stir fry or whatever dish you're making and not to be used alone like regular soy sauce on sushi rolls, etc. It adds umami. I expected it to be thicker and taste very salty, given the high sodium content, but the other ingredients seem to take over more. The consistency is more like a slightly watery version of real maple syrup. After some other reviewers mentioned about this product containing lead, I searched the bottle for anything referring to this, and was a bit alarmed to see a small warning in very small - and I mean magnifying glass VERY small - print saying that consuming this may expose you to lead. LEAD!?? There's no lead listed in the ingredients, of course, so I did some research and couldn't find out why soy sauce would contain lead - maybe the fermenting/brewing process leaches trace amounts of lead from the pots or vessels that they use? I know many different metals have some lead content, so that's my best - but not proven - guess. I have used this soy sauce and haven't noticed any ill side effects and haven't died yet. I'm just trusting our U.S. import rules and inspectors. Plus, because it's quite strong and you use small amounts, maybe that makes it okay to consume? That being said, the smell is weird and kind of funky, but it does up the flavor and appearance of many Asian dishes. This is also quite a big bottle that will last quite a long time. If I do need another bottle later, I will be trying the Kum Lee brand, as that one also got good reviews and recommendations - and apparently has no lead warning.

The flavor is OK, and extremely salty. Works in recipes if you keep that in mind.

This sauce is Amazing I use it inn. My home made jerk very delicious

I don't know how to grade this product. It is light and smells good. But! I received this item yesterday and the expiration date says 27 Sep 2024. And there is no return for health and safety reasons. I believe it will still be good for the next 6 months: hope!Update 14 Oct 2024. I used this product yesterday to make a tofu stir fry with wide noodles. And I'm never going to use it again. It's way too salty. My bad. For now on in, I'll buy low sodium, gluten free.

I’ve enjoyed this brand for many years now. I was glad to find it again on Amazon! Good flavor. Maybe seems slightly salty…but what soy sauce isn’t. It’s a good brand.
