Maggi Seasoning Sauce

I bought this because I had heard good things about it in the foodie community and it was on sale. I'm a sucker for trying new sauces and seasonings. It tastes slightly less salty than soy sauce and adds a depth of roasty, umami flavor. I'm trying to kick my Bachan's Japanese BBQ sauce habit (mostly sugar!) since I'm trying to lose weight. I made grilled teriyaki chicken today with riced cauliflower and used half the amount of Bachan's I usually do and subbed a few teaspoons of Maggi seasoning. Cut out a ton of calories without sacrificing flavor. I love this stuff! Worth noting that this does have a significant amount of sodium in it. Since I don't have high blood pressure, I don't typically pay attention to how much sodium I consume (too many other things to worry about in life), but I know that it may be a concern to some people.

Amazon has the best price I've ever found for Maggi Domestic Seasoning so I only buy it from Amazon; otherwise: Best cooking seasoning you will ever use!!! Once you use this you will never stop. It's one of the three or four seasonings I HAVE to have in my kitchen to cook!! My Mother always used it and to my memory going back to the 1950's and it hasn't changed at all. You won't be disappointed in Maggi! A few drops directly on all meats and fish, in all sauces, all gravies, all vegetables, any grain/noodle dishes and it enhances the flavor 10 fold. If you ever taste a drop on your tongue you'll think "Oh heck no!" But put it on the food you're cooking and it is just magic how it enhances the flavor of all foods!!! Again: You won't be disappointed, use it once and you're stuck! You will love this stuff! Turns any bland dish into a flavorful one with just a few drops!

It's neither soy sauce, tamari, or worcestershire, but man does it have a nice flavor and belong somewhere adjacent to that family. It's bold but not overbearing, it adds a pleasant salty flavor not unlike fish sauce but with significantly less fish. If you like any of the above sauces and you've never give Maggi a try, go for it! Strong chance you'll like it. A little goes a long way.

We bought this item because our local Costco doesn't carry this product anymore. When it came in the mail, it was the size of the palm of my hand!! We should have read the description more but the contents is Maggi soy sauce. It has become my travel condiment now. I take it with me when we head out of town. It does not leak and due to its small size, it definitely helps with portion control when pouring it out.

The bottle receive was slightly different that pictured. I didn't know there were so many varieties. I love using Maggi in cooking and seasoning. Great with pork, hamburgers, even steaks and chicken. lots of uses for this product.

I love this product!! I use this on fish fillets before they go in the oven, that is really all of the seasoning that I need. Very similar to soy sauce only with a much richer flavor. Less tangy, more umami. If I ever meet Chrissy Teigen, I'm going to thank her for introducing me to Maggi.

Amazon seems to think that all Maggi seasoning is the same, it isn't. Maggi Domestic Seasoning, which this product page is for, is a wheat based product with zero calories per bottle, zero carbs and 440mg of sodium(in this 3.38 fl oz. size). Maggi Jugo is soy based, with no wheat, 5 Calories per serving(aka 100 calories per bottle), 20 Carbs per bottle and a ludacris *11,000mg!* of Sodium per bottle. This is not the kind of thing you just substitute, as it's an entirely different product - it just happens to share a similar name. Maggi Jugo is literally overpriced soy sauce. I have given it 3 stars, because it's not the fault of the product that Amazon employees are substituting the wrong one.

We are new comers to this sauce, but have already started using it in a lot of our dishes, especially those on the grill. Really adds dimension to our marinades (we use it a lot on chicken). If you've never had this sauce before, try to imagine a union of soy sauce and a smokey steak sauce. I would have liked if it came in a larger size for the price, but honestly, it has lasted quite a while; It has a very strong flavor.
