Tauco, Taucu, Taotjo, Tao Jiew or Tauchu (Chinese: 豆醬; pinyin: dòujiàng; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: tāu-chiùⁿ; Thai: เต้าเจี้ยว, RTGS: Tao Jiew) is a paste made from preserved fermented yellow soybeans in Chinese Indonesian, Malaysian and Thai cuisines.
[1] Tauco is made by boiling yellow soybeans, grinding them, mixing them with flour, and fermenting them to make a soy paste.
Taucu is generally used in cooking by Chinese Malaysians, Singaporeans, Bruneians, and Thais.
[3] The sauce is often used as a condiment and flavouring for stir-fried dishes such as tahu tauco (tofu in tauco sauce), kakap tahu tausi (red snapper with tofu in soybean sauce), in soup such as swikee oh (frog legs in tauco soup) and pie oh (softshell turtle in tauco soup), or stir fried with kangkung (water spinach).
