Black Soybean Soysauce

And I spread it?
Yes.
Cedric, you��ve had soy sauce before, right?
Uh huh.
Regular soy sauce is made with soybeans.
That��s why it��s called ��soy sauce.��
Right, but this special soy sauce is not made with regular soybeans but with black soybeans.
Black beans? Doesn��t it make a darker sauce?
Possibly, but in any case, it��s supposed to taste better and we��re here in Douliu, Yunlin today to see how this very special sauce is made.
Black beans contain more proteins. The sauce tastes better and the flavor is better, the smell is better.
It also takes longer to make black bean soy sauce.
Yes, 180 days.
Compared to regular soy sauce?
One to two months.
Why do we use that salt?
Salt contains lots of minerals which help bacteria to process proteins from beans and another function of salt is preservation.
So now they��re going into the ceramic pot. Why do you use ceramic pots?
It can keep heat within the pots. Heat is one of the elements that helps bacteria process the proteins.
The black beans have been steamed, infused with a special blend of yeast, they��ve been dried, mixed with salt, so what happens next?
After that, we will put the cover on top of it and say goodbye and wait for 180 days.
Your family has been in this for about five generations, making and selling soy sauce. Over 100 years! How did they get started?
We started as a meatball vendor. Meatballs go with soy sauce. Eventually our soy sauce became more famous than our meatballs, then we changed our career to the soy sauce.
But now you make more than soy sauce. We saw soap made out of black soybeans.
Hand cream, facial cream, facial mask�K When you press the black beans, you used to sell the protein (byproducts) to pig farms but then you discovered that you can do something else with those, and they are all the products we saw in the store.
Including�K
Including what we are eating now. Black bean ice-cream, and it is delicious.
