Still, it is somewhat surprising to see where soy sauce has been used of late. One such example is a new salad dressing flavor under the Wish-Bone brand from Unilever Bestfoods (Englewood Cliffs, N.J.). The use of soy sauce in a dressing, sauce or marinade is nothing new, but Wish-Bone has included it in a Honey Dijon Vinaigrette flavor and claims the product will work well on salads or as a marinade for chicken or steak. The soy sauce used is composed of wheat flour, water, soybeans and salt.
Taking the ingredient in a French direction, Nestle USA's (Solon, Ohio) Stouffer's brand added a dry version of soy sauce to its Family Style Recipes version of Chicken Cordon Bleu Pasta. Described on the packaging as “pasta with chunks of chicken and ham in a creamy sauce with Swiss & Parmesan cheese,” a dry version of soy sauce is used in the product's bacon base, which requires the use of maltodextrin in its preparation.
