Dark Soy Sauce

Home cooks reach for dark soy sauce when a stir-fry or braise needs colour as well as flavour. It has a deeper, richer colour than light soy sauce and a slightly thicker consistency, adding a rounded savoury depth to dishes without overpowering other ingredients. Use it in braised dishes such as red-cooked pork or beef, where it gives the sauce its characteristic dark, glossy finish. Stir a little into fried noodles or fried rice for colour and background flavour, or add to marinades for meat and tofu before grilling or pan-frying. A splash also works well in gravies and stewed vegetable dishes that need extra depth. Add dark soy sauce sparingly, as a little goes a long way towards colouring a dish. It's best stirred in during cooking rather than used as a table condiment, letting it cook through so the flavour settles into the sauce or marinade. Once opened, keep the bottle tightly sealed and store in a cool, dark cupboard away from direct sunlight. Give the bottle a shake before use, as the sauce can settle over time. Kept well, it stays a handy store-cupboard staple for everyday Chinese-style cooking, ready whenever a recipe calls for extra colour and savoury depth.
