How long does it take to make commercial soy sauce–do you know? I don’t, but I do know this Homemade Soy Sauce takes at least ONE year!
I’m deeply fascinated by the way Korean soy sauce is made. I lost myself dreaming back in time while researching it, and I wanted to be able to make it at home so badly. There was a lot of work involved, and initially I was too afraid to start.
However, in December 2017, I overcame my fear and made my first batch of Homemade Soy Sauce. Not knowing how it would turn out, I filmed every step of the process.
The result wasn’t exactly like I imagined. I wanted to have a lot of fermented bean paste that I could use as miso. There was too much fungi in the paste however, and I was afraid to use that part.
However, the taste was amazing and the process of making it was worth sharing. So, I finished the video and shared my experience via my Youtube Channel in 2019. As a result, I got a lot of reviews–both positive and of course, some negative ones too.
I have learned so much from this experience, not only about how to make soy sauce, but also a lot more about other related products as well.
I also learned to appreciate the foods I eat more, to be patient and not to rush, and best of all I learned that high quality things can’t be made fast!…
