Ketjap Manis is an Indonesian sauce that’s similar to soy sauce but sweeter in taste with a more syrupy, molasses-like texture than its Chinese cousin. This taste and texture is achieved by adding palm sugar and loads of tasty spices. Make homemade kecap manis with tamari instead of soy sauce – see the sweet soy sauce recipe. Or mix tamari with a sweetener such as palm sugar, coconut sugar, brown sugar, maple syrup or honey – as outlined in substitutes 2 to 5. 7. Coconut aminos Ketjap Manis is a totally slept on condiment that’ll change your fried rice, dip and marinade game for the better. Also spelt “Kecap Manis” (it’s the same product, this is just the original spelling rather than the Dutch one), and it’s a salty, sweet, umami-filled sauce that’s commonly used in Indonesian cooking. However, to get better flavor and texture in your dish add some brown sugar in the soy sauce and use instead of the sweet soy sauce in your recipes. You will need one cup of soy sauce, one cup of water, and one cup of brown or palm sugar. Spices: I like to add a single star-shaped pod of star anise. It adds spice and depth to the sauce without overpowering the sweet, salty soy taste. You can also add a small piece of cinnamon.

Summary

Sweet soy sauce is widely available in Indonesian marketplaces, warungs, minimarkets, supermarkets, toko, and Asian grocery stores worldwide. However, it is quite hard to find in most parts of Europe (except for the Netherlands, UK, and Germany) and also quite scarce in the Americas. Sweet soy sauce can be made from regular soy sauce. Regular soy sauce mixed with brown sugar, added with a trace of molasses, can serve as a substitute for sweet soy sauce.

Coconut aminos is the fermented sap from coconut blossoms blended with salt. It contains significantly less sodium than soy sauce and has a slightly sweet flavour with a much lighter hue. It’s also different from soy sauce because it’s got a load of lovely spices, including star anise, cinnamon, coriander and cloves. Use these sweet soy sauce alternatives as a 1:1 substitute for shop-bought sweet soy sauce. 1. Homemade kecap manis (the best sweet soy sauce substitute)

Hoisin can also include starches such as sweet potato, wheat and rice. And other ingredients like sugar, soybeans, sesame seeds, vinegar, salt, garlic, chilli peppers and spices. Commercially sold hoisin sauce can also include preservatives and colouring agents. This sauce is a common ingredient in marinades, stir-fries, stews, soups, dressings, as a dipping sauce, or as a condiment for dumplings, noodles, tofu, and fish. While some people might confuse it for soy sauce or tamari, it’s definitely not the same thing, and comes with loads of complexity, spice notes and a sweetness that really sets it apart from its salty relatives. What is Ketjap Manis? Traditionally it's used to flavor various hot and cold Indonesian dishes and is used as a condiment and marinade. We like it in this recipe: Kacang Panjang Kecap, Long Beans in Sweet Soy. The star anise is optional. But I love the addition. It adds a depth of flavour similar to the caramel, almost smoky, Indonesian kecap manis.
