The world's first cacao soy sauce "CACAO JANG" is born!
Newly released in January 2021, cacao jang which is "chocolate flavored soy sauce jang" has emerged as a new seasoning in the cooking world.
Born from the idea that "if the same fermented foods are used, can they be fused to make soy sauce?"


Revolutionize the world of soy sauce and chocolate!
3 people -soy sauce master Mr. Toshio Shinko of "Yuasa Soy Sauce Limited", chocolate master Ms. Kanako Satsutani of "Tomoe Savour",
and a French chocolatier Mr. Arnaud Stengel of " Eritage",
have collaborated to produce a revolutionary new seasoning, the world's first cacao soy sauce.

It was in 2017 that Toshiro Shinko of Yuasa Soy Sauce participated in a tour of Mr. Arnaud Stangel's own fermentation
facility organized by Kanako Satsutani of Tomoe Savour. During his one-week stay in Vietnam, he tried to fuse cacao and soy sauce
with the experimental fungus that he had brought in advance, based on the idea of ​​"what would happen if he added fungus to cacao?"
This was a failure.
But he tried again when he took the cocoa production tour again in 2018. He wasn't happy with the results in the second time, too.
and despite trying a number of experiments after that, he was far from the cocoa sauce and
chocolate-like flavors he envisioned, and made many prototypes.

The most difficult thing was the compatibility with soy sauce, and he realized that "Kuyo Murasaki" made from the requid of
Kinzanji-miso was the best, not all soy sauce.
As a result of trial and error for 4 years, we finally made it!  We succeeded in creating a new type of miracle seasoning,
cacao jang with a taste that no one has ever tasted.

Enjoy the rich umami harmony of fragrant chocolate parfum and soy sauce.

 

How to use cacao jang
The best match is with icecream! Please try it!
Then sashimi is recommended to enjoy cacao sauce directly. It is especially suitable for white fish such as sea bream,
and if you put it on top of it, you can enjoy a different taste from conventional soy sauce.
Furthermore, it goes very well with meat dishes and is suitable for a wide range of dishes, from wild game meat dish to chicken.
Various dishes can be upgraded with this soy sauce in various scenes.
Please enjoy a luxurious dish with the miracle seasoning.  We believe it has a infinite potential.

 

Chocolate is made from cacao mass, which is fermented and roasted cacao seeds, and is kneaded with sugar, cacao butter, milk powder, etc.,
but cacao jang has no sweetness and the flavor of cacao is elegant.
Cacao jang has succeeded in producing soy sauce with a cacao flavor by soaking roasted cacao in soy sauce, letting it lie down, and aging it in a bottle.
