I want to say that japan is the superior country in everyway. I want to tell you the country that eats bats, snakes, rats and insects has no taste. However my heart cannot lie. Chinese soy sauce tastes better to me. It saltier and funk more pleasant.

The japanese soy sauce aroma is quite strong and so i am forced to use less of it. it tastes so strong of fermentation that i just like the chinese stuff better. That's my opinion anyway.

Once again, you’re taking a product with countless regional variations, and trying to simplify it in terms of entire countries.
There is no “general” Chinese/Japanese flavor profile for soy sauce.

They have different strengths and uses, so I stock both. I just don't buy anything from mainland China. My "Chinese" soy sauces are made in Taiwan/Hong Kong/Singapore.

Depends on what you are cooking you faggot. Chink soy sauce (there are many grades and types of soy sauce. Lee kum kee is one of the worst. Get tiger brand or even kwong cheong thye if you can find it) for chink food. Jap soy sauce (yamasa is pretty good) for jap food.

This is the stuff. Naturally fermented for 4 years in giant koji inoculated wooden barrels/vats. It's how soy sauce was made before the industrialization push toward stainless steel after the war. There are very few people left who even know how to repair the old school vats (the last one was sold about 70 years ago) so the company sent their team to go learn from the old masters before the techniques were lost to history. Fucking glorious stuff. The absolute best by a wide margin, no hyperbole.

There are major problems with such genuine soy sauce
Deterioration after opening.
It's a pity that even the best soy sauce oxidises and turns sour.

>boiled dog meat
>one time, monkey brains

Americans have no idea how bad it really is. No one in china knows what the fuck beef and broccoli is or sweet and sour pork. Chinese food is disgusting. Literally the worst parts to eat of any animal. Makes sense because chinks are the race of humans closest to animals. They make disgusting noises when they eat, slurp everything, men in the streets lift their fucking wife beaters over their sweaty stomachs while laughing and chewing with their mouths full of food. Like what kind of idiot decided 2 sticks is the most practical way to eat grains of fucking rice. Starving Nigerians who eat grass have a better diet than the average chinese.
