Metallic Soy Sauce?

hi there all,

I found a wheat free soy sauce, and I was really excited that I would be able to do sushi with soy sauce again. I tried it out last night on some brown rice... It was soooooo bad. Like sucking on a penny. Left my mouth tasting dirty. I don't know how else to explain it. :lol: I have to laugh about it. This is the first time I have written on celiac.com about something that I wasn't about to cry over.

Guess I have to wonder if it was a bad bottle or the whole brand.

I like the San J brand but have had bad, almost rancid bottles of others

where do you get San J brand..... aw man. That's the one I tried last night. I guess I should try it on WHITE rice before I write it off. I took it to a friends house because she was serving brown rice. I don't tend to eat a lot of brown rice. I will try again.

Are there any other brands you have liked.... that were not rancid? lol

What other brands did you find that didn't taste bad? did you like any others? The brand you said you like is the one that just doesn't work for me.

Try Bragg Liquid Aminos if you don't like SanJ brand. La Choy soy sauce is gluten free.

It could be you have a Systemic yeast/Candida infection causing the funny taste. Very common with celiacs.

Where do I find that brand?

I find the regular San-J tamari too strong, and use the reduced sodium variety. Tastes great to me. (I do keep it in the fridge, of course.)

I couldn't find gluten free, in low sodium. I wish I could find a way to try them all without buying the entire bottle. It cost so much as it is, to be gluten free. <_< I will have to look some more for that one.

Oh and I am always good about keeping it in the refrigerator. It drives my hubby crazy. :P

your right the stuff is expensive -- I was buying it at the local grocery until I saw it at the health food store for $1. less.

We lao have San J in 2 sizes. I've not had the LaChoy in awhile since its not sold in my part of hawaii. I do have some other 100% soy brands from japan.

I also like the Braggs that was mentioned. The liquid Aminos is good but I love the apple cider vinegar they have and mix that in salad dressings. I've never kept San J in the fridge.

If we go for Sushi without planning ahead I just use a piece if gari ginger instead of shoyu ( soy sauce)

Good luck

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      Bread has about 8 g of protein per 100 g, so a piece of bread weighing 125 mg contains 10 mg of gluten. Bread has a density of about 0.25 g/ml, so 0.5 ml of bread contains 10 mg of gluten - i.e. a bread ball 1 cm in diameter. I think it would be unlikely to ingest this much from throwing bread out for the birds.

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.

      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the...

      Zaalouk moroccan eggplant salad

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped...

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped baby spinach or celery leaves to add a dash of green color to this red dish. Best eaten in first couple days because flavor tends to fade. Leftovers are still good, but not as vibrant. Ingredients 2 medium eggplants, partially peeled and cut into cubes (original recipe says 1 in, but I prefer 1/2 to 3/4 in) 2 tomatoes, peeled and crushed 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or minced 1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons spicy harissa (I use Mina brand) 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon paprika ½ teaspoon black pepper 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice 1 tablespoon tomato paste (optional) Salt to taste Preparation     • Heat olive oil in skillet or pot over medium heat. Add all ingredients and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook on low heat for an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.       • Serve warm or cold as a side or with bread for dipping. Enjoy!
