Indonesian Sweet Soy Sauce

I have been living in Canada for 9 years now and I am well adjusted (I can say) here in Saskatoon - Saskatchewan, maybe not the winter - other than that I am good. But once in a while I missed my food - Indonesian food. In Indonesia we have lots and lots variety of food. Start from traditional food to foreign food, you name it we have it. Tourist will never get hungry there, they have lots of option of food while they are visiting Indonesia and I can say they all good as long as you know where to go. In this blog I am going to explain about one ingredient I use for my Sate Ayam or Indonesian Chicken Kebab - traditional bbq dish. The ingredient is "Indonesian sweet soy sauce". In indonesia there are few selection of this sauce, so we have option to choose our favorite one and it is very easy to find in any food store in case we run out of it, so we do not have to stock up. They are very common sauce and we use it for any kind of food. Here in Canada there only 1 (one) kind of this type of sauce we can find - the brand name is ABC. You can find this sauce in the Asian food aisle in any Superstore or you can find this at any Asian supermarket.

Sweet soy sauce made from soy bean, has a thick almost like syrup and sweet. We use this multipurpose ingredient as a bbq sauce, for dipping and general cooking.
