Burning Question: Does Soymilk Need Refrigeration or Not?
Soy milk, once opened, requires refrigeration and should be consumed within five days. Prior to being opened, however, soy milk actually doesn't require chilling, and has an unrefrigerated shelf life of at least one year. Then why, might you ask, is some soy milk is sold refrigerated in the milk aisle while other brands go unrefrigerated next to rice milk?
Sunday BBQ: Shiraz-Soy Tri-Tip
This week I thought I'd we'd get the grill going with a nice big tri-tip. My mom is a sucker for bbq and I know she especially loves a good tri-tip, so when I saw this recipe I thought it would be nice to try on Mother's Day. The tri-tip is marinated in a nice shiraz (aka syrah) and soy combination, making it the perfect dish to throw onto a smokey bbq.

Is Your Soy Sauce Really Soy Sauce?
Soy sauce is soy sauce, right? Wrong. There's actually a bit of a feud brewing (or should I make that fermenting?) between the Japanese and the US Codex Alimentarius Commission.
What Kind of Soy Sauce Do You Use?
Last time I went out for sushi, I debated over whether to use regular or reduced-sodium soy sauce. Reduced-sodium soy sauce is the condiment of choice for those who are watching sodium intake, as too much sodium can result in high blood pressure. Regular soy sauce, while definitely saltier, has more flavor, in my opinion.
'Wich of the Week: Soy-Ginger Chicken Sandwich
Like grilled cheese or my daily turkey creation, a chicken sandwich is something I never get sick of. When cooked just right and constructed well, a chicken breast on a bun makes for a simple but delicious meal. To make this old standby slightly more exciting, all you need is an interesting marinade, and since I've been wanting to do a chicken 'wich for weeks, I decided to experiment with a soy-ginger glaze.
Perfect For Summer: Sesame Soy Cucumber Salad

Fast & Easy Dinner: Shrimp and Ginger Stir-Fry
As much as I love talking and thinking about Thanksgiving, sometimes it's nice to take a quick break from the all-American feast and enjoy a simple Asian-inspired meal.
In this recipe, shrimp is combined with a gingery soy sauce, chunks of red pepper, and slivers of green onions. Served on a bed of rice, it makes for a light and flavorful alternative to the season's plethora of comfort foods.
Celebrate Chinese New Year With Garlic Soy Shrimp
While much of the festivities are celebrated with friends, the eve of Chinese New Year always involves a dinner at home with family. We enjoy a range of dishes — everything from goat to shrimp — that come from both the land and the sea. Every holiday, my mother makes this dish, which only takes a few minutes to prepare.
Fast & Easy Dinner: Wasabi and Panko-Crusted Pork With Gingered Soy Sauce
Just because it's a weekday doesn't mean that you should cook a boring, lackluster meal. Sophisticated dishes packed with layers of flavor don't have to take forever to make. For example, tonight's meal, with its glamorously long name and chic Japanese ingredients, sounds like it's complicated to prepare.
