Cyn, Highly recommend Oyster Sauce by Food Editor Food and Wine Magazine

I've found this site to be helpful. If you click on the How To link, they have a
glossary of ingredients, sometimes recommendations or pictures of the package to help identify it.

Curious, the pics of the product are so helpful! Thank you!
Interesting talk about the different sauces. I recently came across Rachael Ray
cooking show, and while I am not really a fan of hers, she was stirring up something that caught my eye. A Lo Mein dish with lots of veggies I love. I printed out the recipe and discovered she recommended Pearl River Bridge Superior Dark Soy Sauce. I am a Kikkoman girl, and had never heard of this brand, so I ordered it from Amazon and it arrived in two days. I took one taste and WOW, so strong and not at all what I expected. It is thicker than Kikkoman and so different. Anyone else using this and what do you think? Is it an acquired taste? Cant say I liked it much and am wondering if when mixed with food and the other ingredients it will overwhelm.

I used to keep it on hand as well as their light and mushroom. That
was when I could buy them for a couple bucks each at an Asian store in Austin. The dark soy is very strong and I don’t remember recipes calling for more than a very small amount sometimes along with the light. I didn’t use enough of it to keep buying it and like you, use Kikkoman now. There is an article on The Woks of Life mentioned above that explains the differences. I linked it here.
Last week I decided to do a deep clean on the fridge in the garage and found a bottle of PRB mushroom soy sauce that’s been there six years. I wonder if it’s still good. Probably not, lol.

Not surprised by this. I once gave someone a recipe using Tarragon Vinegar which I buy from Sparrow
Lane, This person had someone do research among chefs in Sacramento area as to their favorite tarragon vinegar. Most said a french vinegar which I Googled and found online. Once it arrived I did a taste test and for me, the Sparrow Lane had a fresher tarragon taste, and I preferred it. All a matter of opinion.
