Absolutely essential for Chinese Stir Fry
This soy sauce has a wonderful, deep flavor and dark color when added to stir fried cuisine and fried rice. It's what my home-made stir fried dishes had always been missing! Together with its companions, chicken stock, regular soy sauce, and dry sherry (anyone know where I can order unsalted xaoxing wine online legally?), it is used to deglaze the pan in the final minute or two of cooking. Now that I have discovered this ingredient, I will always try to keep some in my kitchen. To me, this flavor is as essential as garlic, onion, and fresh grated ginger to my Chinese style cooking (and would be excellent in savory European style red meat dishes as well). It's a shame it's not available in most American grocery stores.Regular Japanese style soy sauce, widely available in even the most remote American grocery stores, is also important to stir fried dishes (usually the two are mixed together in small quantities), but it is critical to note that this dark soy sauce is NOT the same stuff! It is NOT a table condiment to put on your tempura, sushi, or asian gyoza dumplings. Several other reviewers bought this product without understanding this distinction, and their reviews should therefore be discounted heavily by the prospective buyer.I was pleased by the packaging. The bottles were individually boxed and heavily padded with brown paper inside the box, which was inside another box containing other unrelated items, which itself was well padded inside.The price for both bottles was a bit steep, but one must consider that very little is used (just a small dash or two) for each cooking occasion, so each bottle should last a long time (unless you are running a restaurant).For even more color, I like finding a way to mix a little turmeric into most of my stir fried dishes as well -- although not traditionally Chinese to my knowledge, the combination of turmeric and dark soy sauce together makes the veggies pop with loud, delicious color on my plate.UPDATE:It should be noted that this soy sauce does not have any added MSG, so does not have that specific flavor found in most Chinese take-out. If you're really missing that umami taste, just add glutamate from some other source.

Nice dark soy sauce
I have been using Peal River Bridge dark soy sauce for many years. It is in good quality. The product was well packed and came to me in good shape. The only draw back for it from Amazon is that I have to buy two bottles.

Pearl River Bridge Superior Dark Soy Sauce
I am happy to find this product. Dark Soy Sauce can't be found in the supermarket anymore. This product is very very good better than the other one I was using when I was able to find it. Much more superior in flavor. This gives a beautiful dark color and a rich flavor to food. I found this to be a great value for the price and the fact that they ship 2 large bottles.Shipping was fast and the product was packaged very well. I will definitly order this product again. Highly recommend this brand of Dark Soy Sauce.

Best soy sauce I have ever tasted
I had this brand of soy sauce at a streetside Bistro in London last summer. It was so good I had to ask what brand they used! As soon as I got home, I ordered some and have not been disappointed. I especially like the glass bottle option, as I am trying to purge plastic bottles and the micro plastics they put into the contents from our diet!

Great Soy Sauce
I love dark soy - it is so much better than your standard store soy sauce - it is thicker and much richer in flavor. This is the best soy for making sir-fry; especially pepper steak and beef with broc. It makes your standard store sauce look and taste like colored salty water. If you love stir-fry (beef & broc; pepper steak even chicken in peanut sauce) this is a must have in your kitchen. Once you try dark soy sauce, you will never go back to standard grocery store soy!

Great Product
I lived in Taiwan in my childhood and young adulthood, growing up eating the great diversity of Chinese food. This is a delicious find even 50 years after leaving the Orient. P. S. Ignore the Kikoman at your local grocery store. Get the real stuff!
