too salty

even using the specified reduced-sodium soy sauce, this was way too salty.  Perhaps adding some orange segments to the leftovers will balance it out a bit.  next time I make it I will start with 2 Tablespoons of soy sauce.

Too much soy sauce

Wish I had read reviews first! Way too salty and soy sauce dominated, almost inedible . I am glad I only made half the recipe. I rescued it by adding two cups of thinly sliced cabbage to absorb some of that salt, but we are some and as much as I hate to throw away food, we just were not going to eat it. Could be a good recipe with much less soy sauce.

i couldn't stop tasting it
