Soy Sauce Substitute – Soy-Free & Gluten-Free

March 16, 2016 By Sarah Leave a Comment

Make your own soy and gluten-free soy sauce alternative | accidentallycrunchy.com

Finding core ingredients that fit with your dietary restrictions can be tricky. Especially when looking for gluten-free or wheat-free, since flour is often a contaminant in otherwise okay food items, and is also used as a thickening agent. Soy sauce is one of those tricky ingredients, since wheat gluten is very often an ingredient. It is possible to find gluten-free soy sauce, for example Tamari, to use as a substitute, or you can easily make your own soy sauce substitute from ingredients that you have in your pantry.

homemade soy sauce substitute | accidentallycrunchy.comReady to make your own? This recipe is adapted from one I came across while browsing AllRecipes. To get started, you’ll need the following ingredients

  • vegetable broth
  • silan (date honey)
  • red wine vinegar
  • balsamic vinegar
  • water
  • garlic powder
  • ground ginger root
  • black pepper

Add the ingredients to a pot and bring to a boil on high heat. Reduce heat and let it continue to boil for 10-15 minutes, until the sauce has been reduced and thickened (you’ll have about a half cup of liquid left).

Remove from the stove, let cool to room temperature, and transfer to a container that can be tightly sealed. Store it in the fridge, and use within a couple of weeks.

This is a suitable soy sauce substitute for Passover, but of course is also a great year-round choice if you need to avoid soy or are not able to find gluten-free soy sauce in your area.
