Sand lance and soy sauce

Japanese: いかなごしょうゆ
Sand lance and soy sauce

...Originally, the purpose of salting was to eat the salted seafood itself, but over time the flavorful liquid that seeped out of the salt came to be used as well, and nowadays it is produced solely for the liquid. This is called fish soy sauce, and in Japan there is Akita's shottsuru and Kagawa's ikanago soy sauce, while foreign varieties include anchovy sauce and nuoc mam. Shottsuru means salt soup and is made from sandfish and sardines, while ikanago soy sauce is made from sand lance, also known as kounago or kamasugo, and both are used in hot pot dishes.

*Some of the terminology that refers to "ikanago soy sauce" is listed below.
