Just the right amount of soy sauce

Tim Bunting AKA Kiwi Yamabushi on Zao-san

The trick to good Japanese cooking

Japanese cuisine, or at least a lot of it, is very simple. If there’s not enough flavour, you add a bit of soy sauce. Too much, and it becomes too salty. When it’s too salty, you just add water. And so on, and so on, until you get it just right. The trick is to only add slight amounts each time.
