My mum is a great cook, she can single handedly prepare a spread like the picture above for a party of 10 within a short period of time.
I learnt to cook from my mother, who holds a plethora of recipes as a result of hosting dinner parties and an obsession with cooking. She has influenced my cooking style and eating habit quite a lot too!
One of those things that she always tell me is “You must use Angel Soy Sauce”. #truestory
As they say, mum knows best, and she is right about Angel Soy Sauce!
Angel Soy Sauce is being manufactured in Bidor Kwong Heng Sdn Bhd. I feel really proud because I’m from Ipoh, Perak and it is good to know that this condiment brand from Perak is being enjoyed not only in Malaysia but across Asia to Europe and from Australia to the U.S.
Soy sauce is one of those things that you’ve got to have in your kitchen arsenal so food safety is really important. Angel Soy Sauce is 100% naturally-brewed for 3 – 6 months and only non-GMO ingredients used. Angel Soy Sauce is also made without added HVP (hydrolysed vegetable protein), thus free of the cancer causing 3 – MCPD.
Apart from food safety, what about the taste of soy sauce? Not all soy sauces are made equal unfortunately, or fortunately. Bidor Kwong Heng specialises in naturally brewed soy sauce and bean paste. Naturally brewed soy sauce has an aroma and complexity of flavor. Industrial soy sauce however, is flat tasting and super salty. A good soy sauce can give a great umami flavour to your cooking and enhance the taste of your natural ingredients.
I love the Angel Sriracha Hot Chilli Sauce too. It’s like a new essential in any Asian or Western kitchen. It is a type of chili sauce made from a paste of chili peppers, distilled vinegar, garlic, sugar, and salt. Bidor Kwong Heng’s version was slightly tangy, mildly spicy with a nice little smokiness to it. I can see myself using this very often in the near future.
Here’s a sriracha soy sauce chicken recipe that I tried making last weekend. The ingredients and instructions are pretty straightforward.
Serve it on lettuce leave to transform it into a refreshing starter.
Here’s another video recipe on Thai style basil minced chicken, using Angel Soy Sauce.
I hope you will enjoy replicating the recipes. You’ll be amazed at how soy sauce can be the secret weapon that gives dishes greater depth and complexity.
