Log it in Doydum and a row of aubergines sprouts in today’s bed in front of Doy’s house.
Soy sauce is a salty, dark seasoning brewed from fermented soybeans and wheat. It is used in marinades, stir-fries and noodle dishes, and as a dip for sushi and dumplings.
Sweet soy sauce and teriyaki carry added sugar, so they count differently from regular soy sauce.
