Since washing soy sauce without ruining your clothes, we will share some tricks with you.

How to remove a fresh soy sauce stain?

The difficulty in removing contaminants lies primarily in the color of the product. Brown marks stand out strongly on all fabric colors. But not everything is so sad, you can remove the soy sauce stain from clothes, just, if possible, start processing the fabric immediately after the formation of contamination.

1. The first thing to do is rinse the stained area with water. This manipulation will not relieve the stain, but it will prevent the deep ingestion of the pigment into the fibers of the fabric, which in turn will facilitate the main wash. Ideally, you can also sprinkle the area with table salt.
2. If there is no access to running water (nature, a walk along the evening streets of the city, etc.), absorb excess moisture from the refueling using any available method. Dry napkins, starch, bread crumb or ordinary salt do an excellent job with this task.
3. Then proceed to the main removal of contamination using: brown laundry soap, anti-stain, laundry detergent, etc. It depends on what exactly you have at your fingertips, and what exactly can be applied to a particular fabric structure.

Important: These tips are only effective if the stains are fresh. Pigment can be absorbed from old ones only after preliminary soaking. However, pay special attention to the temperature of the water, it should be warm, but not hot. Otherwise, the color will penetrate deeply into the structure of the fabric and, unfortunately, it will be impossible to get rid of dirt.

How to remove old soy sauce stain?

Old sauce stains can only be removed by pre-treatment. Processing is carried out by different means, based on the type of fabric.

• If the thing is not bright colors and dense structure, use any chlorinated product. A small amount of the drug is treated with the affected area, and then all clothes are washed.
• To wash soy sauce from white clothes of more delicate structures, you can use oxygen bleach, it is less aggressive than chlorinated agents.
• Silk, chiffon, satin and other delicate fabrics will wash away unwanted yellow traces of sauce with laundry soap or anti-stain soap. Lather the stained area and leave it on for a while, then wash the clothes as usual.
• A spoonful of oxalic acid diluted in a glass of water will help remove very old, stubborn dirt. An hour after soaking a painted area of ​​clothing in a solution, the contamination will become less noticeable, and it will be completely removed by ordinary washing in a washing machine. Clothes should be washed immediately after staining.
• Complex contaminants are often treated with liquid glycerin. Apply the product to a sponge or cloth and scrub the stain. After 15 minutes, rinse off the remaining product and wash your clothes.
• It will not be superfluous to mention table vinegar, which, moreover, is in every kitchen. Dilute 9% vinegar in water and scrub the area with a sponge or small brush.
• If starch or potato pieces are applied to the contaminated area moistened with water from the front and back sides, the pigment is absorbed and it will be much easier to wash clothes. Keep potatoes on your clothes for no more than 15 minutes.
• Ammonia diluted with a glass of water perfectly removes even the most stubborn stains. But the procedure should be carried out in a well-ventilated area.
• Is soy sauce washed off clothes with household chemicals? Of course! If the composition of the fabric allows the use of stain removers, use Vanish, Amway, or any other product. Treat the affected area with a small amount of liquid, and then add it to the machine during the main wash.

Do not soak in pure vinegar, as it will eat away the color.

If you are unsure how to remove a small stain, glycerin will help you. It can be rubbed into the problem area and left for twenty minutes. The effect can be enhanced by adding ammonia: one teaspoon to four tablespoons of glycerin. After twenty minutes, wash off, use powder if necessary.

Today, soy sauce is allowed to be found in the kitchen of any housewife: it is in harmony with virtually any dish. And the pivotal snag remains the question: how to positively preserve soy sauce, so that it does not deteriorate prematurely and does not lose its taste?

Instructions

1. Make it a rule to never leave your soy sauce bottle open. Vacuum is the most trusted protector of the palatability of many foods, and soy sauce is no exception. Consequently, avoid leaving a bottle of soy sauce without a lid - even while you are using it for cooking or eating. Covering the sauce with a lid, without twisting it to the end, you more closely protect the product from weathering and untimely spoilage. Alternatively, during dinner, it is allowed to pour a little sauce into a special bowl, and close and remove the bottle itself.

2. Keep in mind that clear rays contribute to untimely food spoilage, as does air. Consequently, do not save the bottle of soy sauce on the windowsill, even if the window is closed with blackout curtains or blinds. For the same reason, you should not leave soy sauce on the table, because it can deteriorate due to the warm air in the kitchen from the gas stove during cooking.

3. One of the most suitable options for storing soy sauce without spoilage and loss of taste would be a cabinet, inside which clear rays, as well as warm air and dampness, do not penetrate. A dark, cool place is what is needed for the product to be preserved for a long time in the best quality.

4. A good alternative to a kitchen cabinet is a refrigerator. The temperature in the refrigerator, as is well known, is much lower, therefore, it is better than anyone else for storing soy sauce: the product will live much longer and will not change its taste at all even after a long time.

Note!
Even if you save soy sauce in a tightly closed cabinet, where heat and light do not penetrate, or, even better, in the refrigerator, make sure that the bottle of sauce is always coolly closed. Otherwise, the taste and quality of the sauce may deteriorate due to the smell of other foods stored together with the sauce in the cabinet or refrigerator.

Helpful advice
Soy sauce is kept in a glass bottle with a tight-fitting lid or stopper, therefore, initially choose soy sauce in such a package. Thus, you will avoid many inconveniences during storage of the sauce and provide it with a long service life.

Occasionally, each one ingredient completely changes the taste of the dish. Fascinating and strange sauces allow you to again highlight the accents, to reveal the taste of the dish from an unexpected side. Worcestershire or Worcestershire sauce is one such "magic" ingredient.

History of appearance

This sauce is generally considered to be Indian, but Worcester sauce was actually made by accident in the first half of the nineteenth century in the town of Worcester. One British lord returned to his homeland from Bengal and after a short time yearned for spicy Indian spices. Consequently, he suggested that the owners of a neighboring pharmacy make for him something resembling an ordinary sauce. They produced a certain mixture, which they sold in their pharmacy without special furore, but it possessed such a powerful smell that they decided to send it to the warehouse. As a result, the keg with the fruits of the experiments of British pharmacists lay in the warehouse for two whole years until they remembered about it. During this time, the mixture miraculously turned into a charming sauce, one that was bottled and sold. Since then, Worcestershire or Worcestershire sauce has become an integral part of many dishes. The basis of Worcestershire sauce consists of vinegar, fish and sugar. This is a rather strange combination. But these components are a small part of the composition of this sauce. The characteristic sour-sugary taste and intense smell of the sauce is achieved due to a difficult mixture of tamarind, onions, meat extract, chili peppers, curry, allspice, ginger, lemon, celery, horseradish, garlic, black pepper, bay leaf, nutmeg, asafoetida , shallots, corn syrup and molasses. This mixture makes Worcestershire sauce unique, so you shouldn't try to replace it with ordinary soy sauce on the advice of "experts", because the result will not be the same.

Where is Worcestershire sauce added?

Worcester sauce is essential for a huge part of traditional English dishes. English stew, roast beef, scrambled eggs and bacon, even trivial sandwiches - the British fanatically add Worcester sauce to all these dishes, believing that it gives them a unique and intense flavor. It is extremely cool to use this sauce as a marinade for meat. A piece of pork marinated in Worcester becomes tender and melts in your mouth. Worcestershire sauce is used to make a lot of salad dressings, for example, it was added to an authentic Caesar dressing. Worcester perfectly shows itself in the composition of stews, the main thing is not to add too much of it, because the taste and smell of this sauce is hefty rich. It should be noted that it is with the addition of Worcester that the usual Crimson Mary long drink is made. This sauce gives the combination of vodka, tomato juice and tobasco hot sauce a finishing touch.

Soy sauce is not only a hefty appetizing, but also a healthy product. True, this statement refers to soy sauce prepared by the conventional fermentation method, which requires a long aging (from several months to several years). Some modern manufacturers, in order to speed up this process, resort to chemical methods. Is there any way to distinguish between genuine soy sauce and diluted soy concentrate?

It is permissible to distinguish genuine soy sauce from a chemical one if you devote a fair amount of time to this process. If you catch a glimpse of a supermarket window displaying liquid seasoning from various manufacturers, you will hardly be able to immediately identify a suitable and appetizing product among them. The first thing to look out for is the packaging. Authentic soy sauce will never be sold in plastic bottles because it loses the inimitable and unique flavor of this product.

Pay attention to the composition, it must contain only real ingredients (wheat, soybeans, water, salt). If the list of ingredients includes flavors, unnatural additives, colors, flavor enhancers, and other chemicals, then you should not expect great taste and any useful properties from this sauce. Good quality soy sauce should contain approximately 8% protein.

Another sign, one that can tell a lot about the quality of a product, is its price tag. Genuine soy sauce cannot be too cheap, while a product made by unnatural hydrolysis will be in the low price range.

It is also allowed to find information on the packaging about what type of preparation the soy sauce belongs to - whether it is obtained by unnatural fermentation or is it a diluted soy concentrate (in this case, the word “unnatural” is added to the name of the sauce).

Even if a disregarding manufacturer has hidden information about the chemical origin of his product, then it is allowed to determine this fact with the support of tasting. The unnatural soy sauce tastes too good - too salty, too tough, and too sad. When unnatural soy sauce is added to meals, it will overshadow the flavor of staple foods. Later on using such a surrogate, you will be overcome with thirst, and an unpleasant chemical taste will remain in your mouth.

Natural soy sauce tastes completely different. He has a soft, slightly sweet, sophisticated, multifaceted taste. Despite its intense flavor, the naturally sourced sauce does not interfere with the natural collations of dishes.

The color of the liquid seasoning also matters. Natural soy sauce has a translucent reddish-chestnut hue, whereas a product with added chemicals has an obscure, dark (roughly black) color. If the product has a sweet, pungent taste and delicious aroma, then you can be sure that this is a good sauce. An unnatural product will have a tough chemical smell.
