Tamari comes from fermenting soy beans and is mainly produced in the Chubu (central) region of Japan (Nagoya area). It is rich in protein and contains little or no wheat so wheat-free tamari can be used by anyone who has a gluten intolerance. Tamari is thicker, richer, and darker than soy sauce and has a mellow flavor. It is used mainly for dipping, seasoning, and for marinades.
Substitution: It is almost identical to soy sauce, so you can substitute with soy sauce as long as you do not have a problem digesting wheat.

Our Recommendations for Buying Sashimi Online
When we have a sudden craving for sashimi we usually buy from our local Japanese supermarkets. If you don't have a reliable shop to purchase quality sashimi nearby, we would recommend buying from Catalina Offshore online. They've been in business for over forty years and all the sashimi products we've tried from them are outstanding. The products we love are the saku cut tuna, hamachi loin, and all types of salmon. Disclosure: We earn a small percentage commission from your purchase of products linked to Catalina Offshore.
