Culinary knowledge of Teriyaki Chicken

Although the seasoning has reduced salt, the taste of this chicken teriyaki is still very good.

Salt enhances the taste of food. But eating too much salt can lead to health problems, such as high blood pressure and heart disease. The World Health Organization (WHO) has recommended that each person consume no more than 5 g of salt a day, which is about 1 teaspoon. But if the salt is reduced, it will make us feel that the food is not delicious anymore. So even though we know that eating bland is good for health, maintaining a bland diet will be very difficult.

In teriyaki fried chicken, although the amount of soy sauce is only half of the usual, the taste of the dish is still delicious thanks to the role of juice, vinegar and ginger. Using stimulant spices is one way we can easily maintain a bland diet.

Another way is to use soy sauce effectively. Although soy sauce has a lot of salt, the salinity in soy sauce is only 1/5 of the salinity of salt. Because of the special flavor of soy sauce, just a small amount makes the dish have an attractive taste. There are many great ways to reduce salt while cooking.

In Japan, there are many cooking classes and websites that teach you how to make low-salt dishes, which are very popular. We hope you all try to reduce your daily salt intake to stay healthy.
