Description Ketjap Manis
Ketjap Manis (also spelled "Kicap Manis" or "Kecap Manis") is a sweet soy sauce that originally comes from Indonesia. It is a popular seasoning in Indonesian cuisine and is also used in other Southeast Asian dishes. The name "Ketjap Manis" means "sweet sauce" in Indonesian.
Ketjap Manis has a thick consistency and a dark brown color. The flavor profile is sweet, with a rich and slightly savory taste. The sweetness comes from palm sugar or molasses and is balanced by the umami of fermented soybeans. Additional ingredients such as garlic and star anise are often added to the sauce, contributing to its complex and aromatic flavor.
Ketjap Manis differs from regular soy sauce, which tends to be saltier and does not have the pronounced sweetness.
