Alternative to Soy Sauce

Chinese night at home can be hard when the soy sauce in your pantry is made with wheat.  Even if your soy sauce doesn't have wheat it most likely has caramel color, which may or may not have a gluten derivative.  What is a mom or dad to do?

The solution for our household is Liquid Aminos.  Liquid Aminos is derived from soy protein.  The Bragg brand of liquid aminos is gluten free.  I find this amazing product at my local Fred Meyer.  Most health food stores should carry one brand or another.  I don't only use this for my stir fry but for marinades as well.  In fact marinading chicken in just the liquid aminos is a delicious way to break up the monotony of another chicken meal. 

Now it is time to bring stir fry night back!
