soy sauce

In Italian, 'salsa di soia' refers to the savory, dark liquid condiment made from fermented soybeans, wheat, salt, and a fermenting agent. It is commonly used in various Asian cuisines, especially in Japanese and Chinese dishes, to enhance flavor. Italians might not use it traditionally in their own cooking, but it has become popular for pairing with sushi, stir-fries, and as a seasoning in marinades.
