Study On The Production of Fermented Soybean
Sauce by Using Aspergillus Oryzae.
The word "soy sauce" is allegedly taken from Chinese "koechiap" or ke-tsiap.
The origin of soy sauce is from the plains of China around 3000 years ago or
around 1000 SM.
Then along with the development of Buddhism in Japan, soy sauce was
introduced, namely in the years 600-500 SM
In China and Japan fermentation in making soy sauce is done for 1-3 years. This
is needed to obtain a distinctive flavor.
In Indonesia, this fermentation is only carried out for 1-3 months.
Soy sauce is identical to soy sauce, so soy sauce has various names including
shoyu, soja, japanese tamari, tao-yu, toyo, and soy sauce
The preparation of soy sauce is known to
involve the action of molds, yeasts, and
S bacteria such as Aspergillus oryzae,
O Zygosaccharomyces soya, and
Y Lactobacillus species. Yokosuka and
Sasaki2 stated that Aspergillus oryzae and
S A. soyae are used by manufacturer. These
fungal Aspergilli species are widely found
A
in various sources. Some species are food
U grade species and others are pathogenic
C for human beings. Aspergillus oryzae has
E been used in soybean fermentation for
several years and it was known as koji
mold.
