Datu Puti Soy Sauce 1L

Datu Puti Soy Sauce, the Filipino kitchen staple made from premium soybeans

Datu Puti is one of the most recognised soy sauce brands to come out of the Philippines, and the 1L bottle is the practical choice for households that cook Filipino food regularly. Made from soybean extract (35%), water, iodised salt, and caramel colour, it delivers what the brand calls linamnam, a deep, savoury richness that works its way through a dish rather than just sitting on the surface. The flavour is bold and well-rounded, with the characteristic depth of a good soy sauce but a profile that is particularly suited to Filipino recipes. It has a darker colour and slightly thicker body than some East Asian soy sauces, which gives it a good presence in marinades and sauces. Suitable for vegetarians, it is a versatile condiment that earns its place in the kitchen.

How to use Datu Puti Soy Sauce in everyday Filipino cooking and as a dipping condiment

Datu Puti Soy Sauce is ready to use straight from the bottle. It works across a wide range of applications. Use it as a marinade for pork, chicken, or beef before grilling or frying, stir it into stews and braises for a savoury backbone, or add it during stir-frying to build depth quickly. It is also well suited to use as a dipping sauce base. The product page includes a straightforward Filipino dipping sauce method: finely chop chilli, garlic, and onion, then combine with Datu Puti vinegar, ground pepper, and a little sugar to create a hot, tangy, spicy dip. Serve alongside deep-fried prawns or slices of grilled pork for a simple and satisfying Filipino meal. For complementary condiments, take a look at our seasonings and cooking ingredients or browse our Asian pastes and cooking bases for more ways to build flavour into your dishes.
