Ketjap Manis - Sweet Soy Sauce

Ketjap Manis - Sweet Soy Sauce Review



Ketjap Manis - Sweet Soy Sauce Feature

  • A sweet Indonesian soy sauce
  • May be substituted in any dish for soy sauce
  • Substitute for sweetners like honey or sugar
  • Has a warm, slightly sweet undertone
500 ml Ketjap Manis (pronounced KEH-chup MAH-nees), by ChefShop.com, is a sweet Indonesian soy sauce. Ours is imported from Holland. This dark, syrupy-thick Indonesian sauce may be substituted for soy sauce in any recipe that also calls for a sweetener like sugar or honey (leave out the sweetener, or adjust the amount to taste), or any dish that you feel could benefit from a warm, slightly sweet undertone. The ketjap is usually sweetened with palm sugar. Uses Try mixing equal parts ketjap and melted butter as a marinade for fish (broiled or grilled). For meat, brush with ketjap, and then baste a few times during cooking. For a simple but flavorful stirfry, sauté the veggies and meat or chicken (if using) in olive oil, and then add some chopped garlic, ginger and a few spoonfuls of ketjap as you stirfry - you probably won't need to add additional salt or sweetener.
