Does anybody know what brands/ types of soy sauce are gluten free? I was diagnosed last week, and as a condiment fiend, I would aprecciate suggestions. Are there any gluten-free condiment brands?

I use San J Wheat free Tamari Soy Sauce. It's expensive but wonderful. Because I really missed my soy sauce, before I found it. Shirley :D

I am wondering if we can use Bragg's Amino Acid

If in Canada, No Name soy sauce is gluten-free. Just called them today. No Name is the yellow label one sold in Extra Foods, Superstore, Super valu

Hi All!

I use San-J also, it has the best flavor I think. I have a gal in one of my gluten-free cooking classes that says that the Amino Acid one is gluten-free and really good. But to give you one more option, LaChoy brand is also gluten free, but it's not as good as San-J in my opinion.

Also, San-J has a gluten free and low sodium variety which is great for those of us watching out blood pressure.

LK,

May I suggest Eden Organic Tamari Soy Sauce, it's quite tasty! I've always been pretty particular about soy sauce, Kikkomans my brand (ex). The few unfortunate times I got cheap and tried something such as Kroger brand, I quickly returned it for a refund.

Is the Edens gluten-free? You tell me. Here's the ingredients:

~ water

~ organic soybeans

~ sea salt

~ alcohol (to preserve freshness)

~ Koji

ORGANIC TAMARI

"Eden Tamari is the type of soy sauce that is characterized as Wheat Free. It's fermented more quickly than traditional tamari. Koji inoculated soybeans are aged for six months in this accelerated brewing process. Tamari was originally the by-product of miso making. Today it is mash brewed. Tamari imparts a stronger more pronounced flavor like that of miso. Compare it to some Eden Shoyu, is our request."

"Meticulous tracking and audited records guarantee the purity of this food from the farm to your table."

Eden Foods Inc. Clinton, Michigan.

OK, so there you go. It's more expensive (about $4.50). I think I got it at Central Market or Whole Foods. I have no idea what Koji, miso, or Shoyu are. Nor had I ever even heard of Tamari prior to looking at this bottle. Also to be fair, this is the only gluten-free brand I've tried, so can't comment on San J or La Choy.

I use La Choy Soy Sauce. You can get it in most grocery stores.

I use San-J's low-sodium wheat free tamari, and Bragg's amino acids - depending on the purpose.

Braggs is gluten free and since it is not fermented is good to use on a candida diet as well.

I grew up using Kikkoman and always preferred it over La Choy. If your favorite soy sauce is La Choy, you're in luck because it's gluten-free.

If you prefer Kikkoman, get the San-J that everyone mentions. To me, it tastes almost exactly like Kikkoman. Make sure you get the Wheat Free kind because not all their soy sauce gluten-free.

That Eden's Organic sounds pretty good too. I'll have to try that next time.

IF you live close to a PF Chang's Resturant they have gluten-free Soy Sauce and menu.

hg,

That's strange. I replied to Libbyk 's post this morning. But it was on the normal forum (at least I thought it was). Guess that's what I get for getting up at 4:30 this morning. Sorry all!

best regards, lm

p.s., Boy, ya can't get anything past happygirl. She's one smart gluten-free cookie!

happygirl Collaborator

LM,

Hey, its all still good to know information and I am sure that it has helped someone out there! Who knows how it turned up? :)

If I have my choice, I'll prefer to be a smart gluten free chocolate chip cookie...I'm craving those for some reason! :lol:

Have a great weekend!

Does anyone know if Lachoy is REALLY gluten-free? I grew up loving this stuff and I swear I get a reaction from it. I don't have any problems with soy. I even called their 1 800 number and everything.

I don't know, maybe I just had some CC!

:( I have to add the thought that there might be a chance you have an allergy to Monosodium Glutamate MSG as well... I am lucky enough to not only be diabetic and a Celiac sufferer... but I have the MSG allergy and Lactose intolerance as well.... sucks to be me!! lol! Try and see if avoiding the MSG will help!

I've always used LaChoy (low sodium) and have been using it like water scince gluten free 24 days ago (yay!)... no problems at all.

Sorry to hear your having problems though.... I'd die without my soy sauce!

      I am surprised that your doctor would not diagnose based on sight? I was diagnosed with dermatitis herpetiformis but the biopsy came back negative. The dermatologist said that can happen as the disease was not active at the time, but it was classic dermatitis herpetiformis in his opinion especially since I was already diagnosed with celiac several years prior to the dermatitis herpetiformis flare up. Like many on the dermatitis herpetiformis threads I suffered from itchy burning lesions on my elbows. Very painful when I was in the shower. Dermatologist prescribed dapsone gel 7.5%. There is a pill option but I wanted to first try the topical gel and it eased the burning sensation and after a few...

      I have celiac and I have been gluten free for several years. Very careful and as far as I know I have never consumed gluten. Recently my bowel movements changed dramatically and I have been Bristol 6 for two months and just now moving to Bristol 5. My GI ran all sorts of blood tests and all were good. The celiac panel test for tTG IgA came back at 13.6 (normal <15). My GI said that is normal. Is that normal for someone on a gluten free diet? I am wondering if I did Ingest gluten and the Bristol 6 stools, the abdominal pain, and nausea are all a result of eating gluten. The GI does not think so since I was at 13.6...or in his words "normal". He wants to do endoscopy, biopsy, colonoscopy, because...
