for home cooks, which is your favorite Soy Sauce ? Those cheapest range available really CMI to me. I chanced upon this Taiwan brand which I like --> 

After I finish this, I want to try those premium ones 

Kwong Woh Hing

Nanyang

 

I don't cook often. So I don't use cheap Soya sauce.

I use kct soya sauce best grade. Honestly I don't cook enough to tell the difference between brands. I can say kct has more flavour  than tai hwa. 

Dark sauce I got the kct one also. But my mum recommends tiger brand the top grade one. So i use both.

I like Wai Wai, where you buy from ? I bought once from Redmart (Have stopped buying from them liao), and hardly see them on the shelves outside.

Can't remember 'cos I usually buy months ago.  

Agree with u that it's hardly seen, only sold in certain shops. Even for ntuc, only certain outlets have it.

Yeah. I think it's bit too sweet. Next time less sugar.

Mine from market as well.

I can't remember whether it's fortune or unicurd tau kwa that is better. But it has a reasonable long expiry date. So that can be kept in a fridge for a month. So that's the trade off benefit. 

But yes the wet Market one taste nicer.

Who knows. Maybe one day need to be refugee. Sell food by roadside to earn a living... Ha. 

OK lah. I don't cook often. So need to study a bit more before I cook something new. I usually watch like at least a few different videos to watch different ways of preparing. Steal some tricks here and there.

👍salute. Really a good daddy n hubby. Nothing like home cooked meals especially when they turned out ok.😅🤪😂

Guess Covid-19 made time slowed down in a way to create "more" time for something so "simple" as preparing meals for loved ones.

Its a good way to stay sane and occupied with things other than Covid-19 too.

Keep safe and eat well.

Safe ride

Cheers

I'm still working my usual hours. But going over to our parents less and no swimming lessons for my kids, so have to cook more often. 

Plus since have a larder, better use it.

Hmm I think main issue is moisture content. Very water logged for the packaged ones. U cna probably open them up and dry them in the fridge for half a day before usage. Since tau kwa is usually for pan or deep frying. 

Also I prefer the market one. Firmer. Don't break open so easily when u manipulate them.

Taukwa from SS not bad. Can match some of the wet market ones!
