Kecap Manis is a name every lover of authentic Asian cuisine, especially Indonesian, should know. It is a sweet soy sauce with a thick, syrupy consistency and a deep, almost molasses-like color, which constitutes the essence of Indonesia's flavor. This sauce is responsible for the characteristic sweet and savory balance found in many iconic Indonesian dishes.

In contrast to Chinese or Japanese soy sauces, which are primarily salty, Kecap Manis contains a significant amount of sugar (traditionally palm sugar), giving it a unique, rich, caramel, and slightly bittersweet profile. This makes it incredibly versatile and an essential component of every Indonesian pantry. It is a product from Indonesia.

The ABC brand, with its roots in Jakarta, Indonesia, is one of the leading producers of Kecap Manis and other Asian condiments. Since its founding in 1975 and subsequent acquisition by Kraft Heinz, the brand has solidified its position as a global leader.

ABC's Kecap Manis is perfect for versatile use. It is a crucial ingredient for glazing meats, marinades, and barbecue sauces. Simply add it to fried rice (Nasi Goreng), noodles (Mie Goreng), or braised beef (Semur) to achieve that authentic Indonesian taste. It is also excellent as a simple table sauce or dip, especially for satay (skewers). Its thick consistency adheres perfectly to ingredients, enriching them with sweetness, umami, and a unique aroma.
