Asian Recipes With Less Sodium Part 1 - Soy Sauce Alternative
Home of Kyle J. Norton for The Better of Living & Living Health Guested Author: Jim S. Williams
Has your doctor advised you to lower the sodium in your diet?
Have you been diagnosed with above normal blood pressure?
Most of us have exceeded the recommendation to consume less than 2.4 grams (2400 milligrams) of sodium per day. If you have been diagnosed with high blood pressure, your doctor may recommend that you consume no more than 1,500 milligrams of sodium each day.
Your decision to reduce sodium in your diet will be a smart and healthy choice. Research has proven that lower sodium diets had blood pressure lowering benefits, can keep blood pressure from rising, and allow blood pressure medicines to work more effectively.
In this series of articles, we will explore recipes that will enhance many favorite Asian dishes without the addition of sodium.
Much of the sodium content in Asian cuisine is found in the sauces. Soy sauce, which is a major ingredient in many Asian recipes, has a value of 1005 milligrams per tablespoon! There are commercial brands that are labeled reduced sodium, however these may contain a value of 840 milligrams of sodium per tablespoon!
We need an alternative which has little or no sodium content. Perhaps, the following recipe will do just that. It can be used as a substitute when recipes call for the addition of soy sauce. I will call it “Dragon Tears.”
DRAGON TEARS
2 tablespoons Sodium Free Beef Bouillon
2 teaspoons Red Wine Vinegar
1 teaspoon Molasses
1/8 teaspoon Ground Ginger
1 dash Black Pepper
1 dash Garlic Powder
3/4 cup Water
In a small saucepan, combine and boil gently uncovered about 5 minutes or till mixture is reduced to 1/2 cup.
Store in refrigerator (do not store in a metallic container). Stir before using. You can make large batches, it will keep very well refrigerated, and will be used in many of your favorite Asian dishes.
