薄口しょうゆと濃口しょうゆの違い。
しょうゆ買わないなぁ…料理しないからなぁ…。
palate
意味 [U][C][通例単数形で] 味覚; 好み, 鑑賞眼
According to America’s Test Kitchen, the two soy sauces that are most worth noting are light and dark soy sauce. They have a similar flavor palate, but with a few small differences that make them better suited for different dishes. Light soy sauce is a thin, dark amber version of the condiment that is used generally to add savory soy flavors to foods. It usually has a light sweetness and acidity to it, though it is often also saltier than dark soy sauce. This style is more common in Chinese cooking. If a Chinese recipe calls for “soy sauce” without differentiating the two, it’s likely calling for a light soy sauce.

薄口が一般的なのは何となく知ってる。
viscosity
意味 [U][C] [物理] 粘度, 粘性.
Dark soy sauce is darker and often tastes sweeter due to the addition of sugar or caramel. It’s typically used sparingly or as a finishing ingredient because of its ability to overpower other flavors. This style is more commonly used in Japan. Because of its higher viscosity and darker color, it also tends to stain foods with a darker hue.

replicate
意味 (かたく)…の複製品を作る〈研究 (成果) など〉を再現する
If you’re looking for low-sodium soy sauce, then you are looking for a different variety entirely. Low sodium soy sauce is any style of condiment that has had up to 40% of the salt removed from it after the brewing process has finished. It’s often still trying to replicate the flavors of a darker soy sauce, just with much of the sodium removed. Some brands may use the term “light” or “lite” to refer to their low-sodium versions, but these are not the same as light soy sauce.

redundant
意味 〈物· 事が〉余分な, 不必要な.
It might seem redundant to keep two bottles of soy sauce in the pantry, but both of these variants are worth keeping on hand. Not only do they have different uses, but combining the two can help create a perfect balance of flavors to many dishes.

もし買うなら薄口だけでいいなー。
braise
意味 〈(手早く炒めた) 肉· 野菜など〉をとろ火で蒸し煮する
Dark soy sauces are most often used to add color and flavor to dishes. A small splash of dark soy sauce is more than enough to add a dark, caramelized color to lo mein noodles. It’s also added late in cooking dishes like stews and slow braises. Not only does it add a concentrated, wine-like complexity to these foods, but if it’s cooked for too long it can overly darken sauces.
