Springy Sauces From San-J

The warm weather is here and that means barbecues and sauces. San-J, creators of gluten free soy sauce has come out with two zingy sauces perfect for the grilling season. They will liven up any cook out and give that special oomph to any meat or fish.

San Jirushi or San-J is one of Japan's oldest soy sauce manufacturers. The company was started in 1802 by the Sato family. Their sauces derive from ancient recipes for miso and tamari or soy sauce. Unlike American brands that dilute theirs with wheat which means there's also gluten in it as well. San J has always made the purest sauces using only one hundred per cent soy. This creates a richer sauce with a smoother flavor and texture. Now they're expanding into sauces - perfect for the upcoming barbecue season. Like the other sauces they are gluten free, perfect for those who suffer from celiac disease.The flavors are varied, from Thai Peanut to Mongolian to Szechuan. I like their sauces tremendously, especially for turning boring chicken and soy nuggets into exciting eats.The Sweet and Tangy has a tropical fruit taste , ripe with pineapple and the tang of garlic. The Orange sauce starts out with a burst of sweet orange followed by a nutty aftertaste. This is due to the addition of the fermented tamari sauce . Another reason to like both sauces is that they're made with organic ingredients like apple and pineapple juices for the Sweet and Tangy and orange juice and organic honey for the Orange Sauce.

Home chefs are going to go crazy over the many different dishes they can create with these two sauces.The Sweet and Tangy is perfect for any chicken recipe.Think kebobs marinaded in it
along  with extra pineapple juice for a sweet South Pacific treat.Marinate diced chicken, green pepper strips and pineapple chunks in the sauce foe two hours. Layer on six inch skewers and grill. Have a bowl of the Sweet and Tangy on the table too for dipping. You can also make Polynesian shrimp this way too.Another fun idea is having the sauce as a dip for  barbecued  jerk veggies, chicken and shrimp . can get a sweet spike from the sauce too. Pork is a great medium for  this sauce and the Orange Sauce. The pineapple juice or orange juice enzymes will be perfect in tenderizing the meat. Marinate a one pound  roast with half a cup of the Sweet and Tangy  before roasting. Orange sauce and duck go together and home chefs can make an exotic outdoor cooked  version of duck l'orange.Instead of making an involved  sauce use San-J's Orange. It can also be used on Cornish hens along with chicken breasts to create tasty, crisp and sweet barbecue.The sauce would also be good slathered on chicken wings and also as a dipping sauce for them.

The barbecue season is fast upon us . Try San-J's Sweet and Tangy and Orange sauce to liven up those kebobs and wings along with outdoor roasts.It's a tasty and exotic spin on American cook outs.

Exciting Sauces From San-J

Sauces are the best way to liven up any meal. The centuries old San -J realizes this and has some exciting and different sauces such as Sweet And Tangy, Teriyaki  and Thai Peanut that can be used for almost everything, from salads to barbecue , from salads to egg rolls. They're perfect for adding zest to any summer meal.

What is unusual about any San-J product is that they are gluten free and have been made that way for  two centuries.San-J  or San Jirushi is one of Japan's oldest companies, having been founded in 1804 by the Sato family. They started with miso and Tamari, a thick sauce  and  now have expanded to gluten free Asian cooking sauces,.This allows those with celiac disease to enjoy dishes and sauces without any worries about bad side effects or reactions..There is a wide range to choose from, such as Szechuan with the zing of ginger, traditional teriyaki along with the fiery Thai Peanut and fruity Sweet and Tangy.Rounding then out is zingy Asian BBQ along with the zesty  Orange Sauce and the smoky tasting Mongolian Sauce. All have natural ingredients such as apple cider vinegar, soy beans along with plum juice concentrate and ginger. Another good thing about them is that they don't have to be refrigerated once they're opened )although to be honest  you won't have them around long}.

I recently tried the Teriyaki, Thai Peanut and Sweet And Tangy sauces and marinades. The Teriyaki is perfect right now for marinating chicken and beef for the grill. It has a lovely mellow taste that only adds to the meats. I would definitely recommend it for grilled wings and legs, perfect for a Saturday night party. The Thai Peanut has a  flavor that 's tempered by peanuts and red pepper. You could use it  to vary a Pad Thai dish to zing it up . It can also be used in making an easy Thai noodle dish. Just use angel hair pasta along with chicken breasts, julienned carrots and diced onion to create a tasty and exotic dinner.Thai Peanut can also be used  as a dressing for a yummy and refreshing Thai salad. Pour it over shredded cabbage and  vegetables of your choosing. You can add grilled chicken or shrimp for more weight. San-J 's Sweet And Tangy sauce  proved an excellent dipping sauce for veggie egg rolls. It had a nice bright flavor that didn't over power the wraps. It also makes an excellent sauce for Chinese style fried chicken too along with dumplings and spring rolls.
