There are many kinds of soy sauce, among which soy sauce and soy sauce are the two most common.
Soy sauce can be eaten directly, with light color and delicious taste. Mainly used for cold salad, stir-frying and seasoning. Soy sauce is obtained after further processing and concentration. It is darker and more viscous, and is more suitable for coloring braised pork.
There have been rumors that soy sauce is carcinogenic and cannot be eaten. Is that really the case? Who should eat less soy sauce? Below, "seeking medical treatment" will tell you in detail.
Soy sauce is caramel color and contains caramel pigment. Almost all caramel pigments produced in industry contain 4- methylimidazole, which is a 2B carcinogen.
In other words, the substance has obvious cancer risk through animal tests, but it is not clear whether it will increase the risk of cancer in humans.
However, any behavior that leaves the dose to talk about toxicity is hooliganism. Soy sauce is just a condiment. According to the amount we eat every day, it will basically not cause health problems. Everyone can rest assured to eat.
(1) Choose brewing soy sauce instead of preparing soy sauce.
Brewed soy sauce is a condiment made from soybean or defatted soybean, wheat or bran by microbial fermentation. Brewed soy sauce has no additives after brewing, and its texture is sticky, but its salt content is high.
Soy sauce is made by brewing soy sauce as the main body, adding acid hydrolyzed vegetable protein seasoning liquid, food additives and other ingredients. The prepared soy sauce is prepared by hand, with many additives, but the production time is short and the price is cheap. The products labeled "soy sauce" on the market are mostly brewed soy sauce, while the prepared soy sauce is generally labeled "sauce".
(2) Shake it before buying it
After a good soy sauce is shaken, the foam is delicate and difficult to disappear. This is because the pure brewed additive-free soy sauce is fermented from soybeans, with high protein content, which is easy to foam after shaking and lasts for a long time. If the foam is large and disappears quickly after shaking, this soy sauce is not recommended.
