Kecap manis (Indonesian sweet soy sauce)kecap manis
Kecap manis is Indonesia's thick, sweet soy sauce, the most popular kind of kecap. Cooked black soybeans go mouldy on bamboo trays, are sun-dried and left in strong salt brine in the sun for weeks to months. The filtered liquid is boiled with palm sugar and spices for 4–5 hours.

Amounts from a sourceSoybeans, water and salt are one traditional factory batch at Zebra Bogor Co., Bogor, spread on 10 bamboo trays (Sulistyo and Nikkuni 2006). The paper gives no amounts for palm sugar or spices.

Kecap manis is Indonesia's thick, sweet soy sauce, the most popular kind of kecap. Cooked black soybeans go mouldy on bamboo trays, are sun-dried and left in strong salt brine in the sun for weeks to months. The filtered liquid is boiled with palm sugar and spices for 4–5 hours. Made in 5 steps over 19 days – 4.3 months. The longest step, ferment in salt brine in the sun, takes 14 days – 3.9 months (Sulistyo J 2006) and runs at 58 °C (Sulistyo J 2006). Salt is 20 % (Sulistyo J 2006). Aspergillus moulds and Rhizopus and Mucor moulds do most of the fermenting.
In the traditional factory method the koji is black soybeans only, with no wheat, and the moulds come from the air and the trays rather than a starter. After brining the liquid is boiled with palm sugar and spices, so it ends up thick and sweet, with 26–65 % carbohydrate and only 3–9 % salt.
Kecap MajalengkaWest Javanese family-factory kecap; a 2018 detik.com report on the Maja Menjangan factory gives a 7–10 day brine soak and a reduction of up to 12 hours before the palm sugar goes in (see kecap-majalengka).
Starter-culture kecap kojiCooked beans inoculated with a white-spored, aflatoxin-free Aspergillus starter mould in 3 days instead of 9.
Safety
Without a pure starter, aflatoxin-forming moulds can grow on the koji; one survey found aflatoxin B1 above 5 μg/kg in about 47 % of 32 kecap samples. An aflatoxin-free starter culture cut the outside aspergilli in koji to a tenth. WHO says most mycotoxins survive food processing, so the final boil cannot be counted on to remove aflatoxin.
Hazards the sources name: Aflatoxin-producing Aspergillus from the surroundings (aflatoxin B1 above 5 μg/kg in about 47 % of 32 kecap samples in one survey).
Kecap is Indonesia's soy sauce; the sweetened kecap manis is the most popular kind (Sulistyo and Nikkuni 2006). Shurtleff and Aoyagi think Chinese from south China brought soy sauce to Indonesia, and say the earliest known descriptions are Dutch, with Isaac Titsing in 1787 noting the name ketjap in Batavia. A 1976 survey they cite counted 588 Indonesian kecap makers and estimated that kecap manis, which can hold up to 50 % palm sugar, was about 90 % of national output, with more than half of all kecap made in West Java.
