I've also seen it at my local grocery story, Raley's, and at our local natural foods store/coop. Good luck in finding it. Maybe one of the low sodium online sources will begin carrying too.shambohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18322116493875692211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4255922734437079511.post-63497536844542851042012-03-12T06:16:37.418-07:002012-03-12T06:16:37.418-07:00Shambo, you are such a font of knowledge!

It contains far more sodium than low sodium soy sauce. I substitute faux soy whenever I can, but if I need a dish to be vegan or vegetarian, the faux stuff is out (b/c of the beef bouillon). <br /><br />This product sounds like the best of both worlds!! Tasty AND lower in sodium - woot! I hadn't heard of coconut aminos and am SO glad you brought it to our attention. Will look at my next trip to Whole Foods.

I understand your ...Desi, thanks for your comments. I understand your concern completely. You might consider trying what I do with low sodium soy sauce. I always look for recipes that only call for 1/4 cup soy sauce or less. Then, I never use more than two tablespoons, no matter what the recipe calls for. <br /><br />If the soy sauce is for a dipping sauce, I dilute it -- 2 parts low sodium soy sauce to 1 part water & 1 part unseasoned rice vinegar. (Example: 2 tsp. soy sauce mixed with one tsp. water & 1 tsp. rice vinegar.) Then I add a couple of drops of hot chili oil and some toasted sesame oil, maybe even some crushed garlic & ginger. By the time I'm done, I've got a pretty tasty dipping sauce with a lot less sodium than straight soy sauce, even low sodium soy sauce.shambohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18322116493875692211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4255922734437079511.post-88060689470930819722012-03-11T10:58:43.861-07:002012-03-11T10:58:43.861-07:00Wow, thanks very much for this post!

Even this coconut amino is probably too high for me, but I think it could be doable. I love reading information like this!! :)<br />DesiDesihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305193030356715707noreply@blogger.com
