Ingredients
  

  • Soy sauce: Readily available and inexpensive but is usually not gluten free and is definitely not soy-free.
  • Tamari sauce: Not that easy to find in a neighborhood grocery.
  • Worcestershire sauce: Easy to find and inexpensive. More vinegary less depth of flavor. That umami flavor comes from fermented anchovy (fish), and traditionally contains wheat too. Check the labels and look for vegan options.
  • Liquid aminos: Super salty and a bit pricey but gluten free and vegan (usually – check the labels).
  • Fish sauce: Not vegan or vegetarian but lots of flavor for cooking.
  • Better Than Bouillon: Our favorite all-around versatile pick as a substitute for coconut aminos. Can adjust depth of flavor to taste.
