Kikkoman Vegetarian Naturally Brewed Oyster Flavored Sauce (726 Gram) Sauce  (726 ml)

Oyster sauce is made from oyster extract, but despite the name, it doesn't taste like fish at all. Instead, the oyster sauce has an earthy, slightly sweet, and salty taste. It is a mixture of boiled-down oyster juices (which have caramelized), along with salt and sugar; some versions include soy sauce thickened with cornstarch. Oyster sauce is dark brown, almost black, and has a thick consistency. It is used in both meat and vegetable dishes, mainly in Cantonese, Thai, and Vietnamese cuisines. Oyster sauce adds a savory flavor to many meat and vegetable dishes. The sauce is a staple for much Chinese family-style cooking. It is commonly used in noodle stir-fries, such as chow mein. It is also found in popular Chinese-American dishes such as stir-fried vegetables. Oyster sauce can also be used as a topping for some dishes.
