Description
Bragg Liquid Aminos is a natural liquid seasoning obtained from the fermentation of soy and wheat proteins. This ingredient is commonly used as a substitute for soy sauce in various recipes, providing an intense umami flavor and depth to culinary preparations.
Origin: It was created by the American company Bragg Live Food Products, founded in the 1950s, and has become popular in healthy and vegetarian cooking due to its flavor and lower sodium content compared to traditional soy sauce.
Properties: Bragg Liquid Aminos are rich in free amino acids, which aid digestion and improve nutrient absorption. Furthermore, they contain no gluten or artificial ingredients, making them suitable for vegan and gluten-free diets. Their salty and deep flavor adds a special touch to soups, salads, marinades, and stir-fries.
Synonyms in Spanish (Latin America): Although its commercial name is "Aminoácidos Bragg," in different Latin American countries, this ingredient might be referred to as condimento líquido de aminoácidos, salsa de aminoácidos naturales, or extracto de aminoácidos fermentados, always highlighting its use as a healthy alternative to soy sauce.
