This is one of my all time favorite how it’s made videos. It gave me a whole new appreciation for soy sauce. I actually think about this video a lot when I’m consuming soy sauce haha
I thought maybe it was going to be healthy because of all the lacto fermentation. But they killed all those beneficial bacteria with the final boiling process.🤷🏽♂️🤦♂️
I always buy hand bottled/small batch soy sauce, yes it's more expensive but at the same time it's better as you know a LOT of care and work went into it to deliver a quality product.
This video was recorded, voiced an edited by only one guy which is the guy that runs the whole factory. He also manages social media, PR and marketing.
It looked like they were making whiskey at first using grain, yeast, and using used whiskey barrels to ferment the mix. The high tech bottle jack and wooden boards made an impressive press. Just shows you can do anything if you set your mind to it.
Ingredients can be known, heck, the FDA can require that ingredients be known(hence why you can see all ingredients used on any and all packaging). What does not need to be known is the proportions used. How much of each ingredient. We don't know the exact amount of yeast, beans, wheat, water, and salt used in the recipe, we just know what ingredients are used.
Most of the stuff you buy at the supermarket (yes also much of the "naturally brewed) is just soy and wheat + HCl which is later neutralized with NaOH. This guy is showing the legit way of making it with koji and lots of waiting
This guy thinks they only do 1 batch per year 😂. I hope you realize he can prepare one for next year and jump over to the batch that was ready to be taken out on the same day.
I'd like to try and make my own soy sauce. I don't like our soy sauce in the Philippines, it doesn't mix well with the dishes. The Japanese soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce and Indonesia's soy sauce are good seasoning and flavoring.
best sauce for literally anything, dumplings, egg rolls, savory pancake, wontons etc: 2-3 parts vinegar (depending on how tart you like it) 1 part soy sauce scallions chili oil if you like spice ur welcome

So many soy sauces. We used to think Kikkoman was the end. Been trying different Japanese, Korean and Chinese soy sauce blends and now we have a collection. Some are good with chicken, beef, fish or shell fish. A different one I use when making beef jerky. So little time, so many,,, wait a minute I am retired, I have all sorts of time.
In korea we use only soybean, salts and water,not a damn thing more. Instead permented wheat we use permented soybean blosk itself. In difference of both method comes from the using of different microrganism. Wheats use Aspergillus oryzae, Soy beans use Bacillus Suubtilis Fungi. Aspergillus oryzae is mainly involved in glycolysis and is used to make alcohol using rice, and Bacillus Suubtilis Fungi is mainly involved in proteolysis and is mainly used for fermentation of protein-rich soybeans.

I love how they use Bourbon barrells to help infuse flavors. I wonder if the exchange is bidirectional. For example, can the soy sauce place send just used tanks back to the bourbon plant and see how their bourbon might taste if fermented in a former soy sauce fermenting tank? If they can go between the two communities, there could be a really interesting exchange of flavors in a symbiotic relationship.
Not bourbon, by law bourbon must be aged in new barrels every time. Other whiskeys, possibly but I don't know that any distiller would want a savory, salty whiskey
I don’t think bourbon made in soy sauce barrels would taste very good…salty/savory bourbon…no thanks. The other way around works well, adding a touch of sweetness to something salty and savory, but I don’t know about adding saltiness to something that traditionally has absolutely none… who knows though I could be wrong and maybe it would be amazing haha
I suspect soy sauce was probably an accidental discovery from someone who was trying to preserve food (probably a soybean+rice mix) with salt, and it accidentally became contaminated with yeast, which fermented the mix and gave it a richer umami flavour. Over time, people refined the process and discovered they could simply extract the "juice" from the mash and add it to other dishes to impart the same salty/umami taste.
When I was a little boy my mom put me on her lap and said listen closely son, "soy sauce other than Kikkoman or Yamasa(a distant second) brand and especially Kikkoman, is not soy sauce" She would whup me good if I ever bought something other than Kikkoman.
Today on how they do it. Plumbuses. Everyone has a Plumbus in their home. First they take the dinglebop, and they smooth it out, with a bunch of Schleem. The Schleem is then repurposed for later batches. They take the dinglebop and push it through the Grumbo, where the Fleeb is rubbed against it. It is important that the Fleeb is rubbed, because the fleeb has all of the fleeb juice. Then a Schlommy shows up and he rubs it and spits on it. They cut the fleeb. They are several hizzards in the way. The blamphs rub against the chumbles. And the plubus and grumbo are shaved away. That leaves you with a regular old Plumbus.
Actually the by product of the soy sauce is the solid bean paste. In chinese cooking this bean paste is will be collected and heat up with garlic and sugar. It became a product by itself. The taste more like salted cream cheese
There is always airspace in fluid filled bottles. Prevents leakage and open seals. It would be hard to sterilize with no airspace as the bottles would shatter under pressure. Assuming sterilization is by using heat and not radiation.
I didn't know soy sauce also had sauted wheat in it. Learned something today. Still, given its similar process and the time it takes I wonder why soy sauce isn't as expensive as whisky.
It was probably discovered by accident, as were a lot of things that were fermented. The first version of soy sauce wasn't likely to have as many steps, or even ingredients. There was a time where salt was the go-to seasoning for everything and it was harder to obtain in the quantities the average person in the first-world can, just by going to a market. That was likely due to the high demand for it as a preservation tool, which just about everyone needed, especially if you have cold winters people need to survive. There are documented instances of salt rationing when it was on short supply. We have it so good compared to ancient humans and many third-worlders (not all); refrigerators and complex sauces.
3:23 after preparing the soybeans and wheat carefully, they throw it all out and collect diarrhea for seven months. Then press the diarrhea into liquid.

"damn, i forgot this failed experiment 1 year ago, let's squeeze this"
No.. they open weekly to grind and stir up the mix so as to aerate the gaseous build up and give yeast more potential to ferment!! Weekly! ✌️
The original inventor of soy sauce took some real risks. How would you think of all these ingredients together?

This is one of those things that make you go, "wow, who was the first human who caw that dukey sauce and thought 'hey, that'd go well with my rice!'"
