what is tamarri & where can i find it?

Answer 1

Tamari is a soy sauce with a rich, deep flavour and a distinctive aroma. Almost no wheat is used in its production, and it is fermented longer than other types of soy sauce.

If you can't find it at your regular grocery, which should carry it, try an asian supermarket or a health food store.

Answer 2

Soy sauce (tamari)

The salty fermented paste derived from soy beans, called miso, actually served as the basis for development of tamari. This development occurred during the Edo period (1603-1867) in Asia, when extra water was added to the miso paste to create a thick, dark sauce. The flavor of this sauce was called tamari. Later, changes in the process added wheat to the paste's ingredients, and today, tamari can be purchased as either wheat-containing or wheat-free.

Tamari is dark brown in color and usually slightly thicker than regular soy sauce. It has a well-balanced smooth flavor that is rich and salty.

The soybean that serves as the basis for tamari has the scientific name Glycine max.

History

Soy sauce was invented in China, where it has been used as a condiment for close to 2,500 years. In the 7th century, Buddhist monks introduced soy sauce into Japan where it is known as shoyu. The Japanese word "tamari" is derived from the verb "tamaru" that signifies "to accumulate," referring to the fact that tamari was traditionally produced as the liquid byproduct that was produced during the fermentation of miso. Japan is the leading producer of tamari.
