SOY SAUCE SUBSTITUTE WITH VERY LOW SODIUM
I tagged this for cooking for a parent with congestive heart failure, for whom sodium must be kept to a minimum. The recipe came from Don Gazzaniga's "The No-Salt, Lowest-Sodium Cookbook". I broke into gales of laughter at Whole Foods when I read the label for a commercial "low sodium" soy sauce: 400 mg sodium! Rather than give up on soy sauce completely, I would use this recipe, as I have had good luck with other recipes by Gazzaniga. Suggested brands of molasses and onion powder are low in salt. Mastercook says 29 mg sodium in entire recipe!

SOY SAUCE SUBSTITUTE
Our Test Kitchen developed this alternative to store-bought soy sauce. Its color and flavor will make you think it's the real thing. But it's lower in sodium than both regular soy sauce and the low-sodium variety.

SOY SAUCE REPLACEMENT -LOW SODIUM
I got this recipe from The No-Salt, Lowest-Sodium Cookbook. I missed Chinese food so much I decided to make a batch. Don't expect it to taste exactly like commercial soy sauce brands - it doesn't - but it's a decent substitute for the real thing at 1.711 mg per tablespoon as opposed to La Choy's "lite" brand at a whopping 560 mg. per tablespoon. Shrimp Fried Rice - here we come! (I guessed the amount of servings - who knows?)
