Teraoka Shoyu began in 1928 in Hyogo, Japan, when founder Kichizo Teraoka saw how modern life was making it hard for families to prepare authentic, nourishing meals from scratch. He created this tsuyu to solve that—to give anyone the deep, clean flavor of a Japanese master chef's soup stock in seconds, without the all-day simmering. We source only organic, non-GMO soybeans and kombu seaweed, batch-testing each ingredient for purity in our GMP-certified facility. This specific 360ml formula became Japan's top-selling organic tsuyu because it delivers that 'restaurant-quality' taste customers kept asking for, proving that convenience doesn't have to mean compromise.

Organic Teraoka Tsuyu Sauce - Premium Japanese Soup Stock 360ml by Teraoka Family is crafted with a thoughtfully selected blend of organic ingredients that serve specific culinary and nutritional purposes. The primary components include organic soy sauce, which provides the foundational umami flavor and savory depth essential to Japanese cuisine, along with organic mirin (sweet rice wine) that adds a subtle sweetness and helps balance the saltiness while tenderizing ingredients in dishes. Organic sugar is included to enhance the overall flavor profile and contribute to the glossy finish typical of tsuyu sauces. Additionally, organic kelp (kombu) and organic bonito flakes (katsuobushi) are key for creating the dashi stock base, imparting a rich, oceanic umami and aromatic complexity that elevates soups, noodles, and dipping sauces. These ingredients are carefully sourced to ensure quality and sustainability, offering benefits such as a clean, authentic taste free from artificial additives, making it suitable for health-conscious consumers seeking traditional Japanese flavors. The organic certification further assures users of environmentally friendly farming practices, while the convenience of a ready-to-use stock simplifies meal preparation without compromising on homemade quality.
