淡口の個性を実感する7本7 1
素材を引き立てる、淡口醤油の魅力
柔らかな色合いと、控えめながらも奥深い旨味が特徴の淡口は、料理の素材そのものの良さを引き立ててくれる醤油です。
このセットでは、「淡口はただ塩気が強いだけの薄い醤油」と思い込んでいた方にも、新しい発見があるはず。まずはそのまま風味を楽しむかけ醤油として。白身のお刺身や冷奴はもちろん、餃子にもよく合います。
素材の持ち味を大切にしたい方、料理の仕上げに透明感と彩りを求める方にぴったりのセレクションです。淡口醤油の多彩な魅力を、ぜひ7本飲み比べてお楽しみください。
繊細な素材もしっかりと活かす。
自称「食いしん坊」の片上さんが手掛ける個性派。淡口醤油の色と香りのバランスを保ちながら、ぎりぎりまでうま味の強さを追求。見た目は濃いめ。かけ醤油にも使っても。
大豆にこだわりのあるお豆腐屋さんが造ったおいしい絹豆腐にぜひかけてみてください。スッキリとした塩気が豆腐自体の甘みを引き立たせ、豆腐そのもののうま味をしっかりと味わえます。スイカに塩をかけると甘みが引き立つのと同じように、そのままなめるとしょっぱい醤油ですが豆腐の甘みをグッとを引き立ててくれます。
西日本ではお馴染みの存在。かけても使える淡口醤油。
天然醸造の淡口醤油に米麹をプラス。塩分が一般的な濃口醤油よりも控えめで、とてもまろやかな味わい。香りもとても穏やかなので、素材本来の風味やうま味をしっかり引き立てます。
淡紫は、塩やレモンの代わりにかけて素材そのものを味わうかけ専用の淡口でもあります。塩味の角が立っていない淡紫で食べる白身の刺身は絶品です。
若き造り手が挑んだ渾身の淡口
一夏を越したフレッシュな諸味に自家製の甘酒をブレンドして調熟後に圧搾。大豆、小麦、米は福岡県糸島市産で、塩は沖縄産の青い海。開栓したらお湯で割って飲んでみて。
かけにも調理にも使える生成り、うすくちは、スープや炒めものに大活躍。塩ではなく醤油を使うことでほんのり醤油の香りと熟成されたうま味もプラスされます。もちろん淡口特有の素材を活かす力はしっかり発揮してくれるので、旬の野菜を使ったポタージュは特におすすめです。
西日本ではお馴染みの存在。料理に見た目も大切だと実感します。
何に使っても失敗しない淡口醤油です。いわゆる関西の正統派の淡口醤油で、淡いきれいな色合いですっきりとした塩気を感じ、主張せずに素材の引き立て役に徹してくれるので、何に合わせても淡口の役割をそつなくこなしてくれます。
少量で塩味が効いて色もキレイに。だしや素材そのものを活かした上品な料理に仕上がります。淡口醤油の未経験者は一度はお試しを。
高貴な香りと透明感にうっとり
紫大尽は大豆・小麦・塩に甘酒を加えられており、香り豊かに米の甘みをほんのり感じます。澄んだ香りは秀逸で、調理に使っても醤油の存在感を残しつつ素材を活かしてくれます。
「淡口はしょっぱいから使わない…」という方にはぜひ試していただきたい1本。特に色と香りを大切にするお吸い物などに使うと、存在感を残しながらも素材をいかしてくれます。その他にも白いご飯に鰹節と海苔と醤油、お湯で贅沢なお茶漬けに。
茶碗蒸しやお吸物の魅力を倍増
うま味や甘みを巧みに調整していて、淡口醤油の中ではしょっぱさは控えめ。ブランデーのようなキレイな色合いで、調理全般に使いやすい醤油です。
茶碗蒸しを作る時、卵の色とだしの香りやうま味を活かすことができるのがこちらです。都淡口はうま味や甘みを巧みに調整しているので、料理上手と言われたい！という方はぜひお試しください。濃口醤油と比べるとやや塩分が強いので、量を調整してしてくださいね。
和風料理に使っていただきたい
国産の大豆と小麦を木桶で仕込んだ淡口醤油。しかも、火入れ処理をしていない生タイプ。塩味が後からくるので少し優しく感じます。塩辛さとうま味のバランスが抜群！！
まず試していただきたいのがうどんつゆ。めんつゆを薄めれば簡単にうどんつゆが作れますが、だしから作ってみるともっとうどんが好きになるかもしれません。

The end is only the beginning
Format: Kindle
Theo appears in a small fictional Georgia town named Golden. He’s a distinguished old man with a mysterious past. He’s a quiet observer; then he makes friends in a coffee house and there pursues a plan to personally gift every portrait drawing on the wall to the townsfolk simply pictured there.
As an artist, I appreciated the detailed descriptions of each face, and then the invited dialogue with each person behind those drawings. The characters Theo gets to know are varied and storied. Of even more value to me was Theo’s visit to the studio of the originator of all the portraits. Layers start getting unpeeled in this tale. I started to highlight phrases when the motivation for doing the work got uncovered between them.
There were times when I felt the main character was “too good” to be believable. I personally appreciated the subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) references to Theo being a Christ figure. But remember that Jesus was the one who said “woe to you when all men speak well of you”. The Theo who is pictured in this book, and the reactions of most around him is maybe a little too syrupy? A friend who is in my book club felt herself being “manipulated” when reading this book. I ponder that. There was a plethora of reactions to Jesus too, but I don’t think any honest quester ever felt manipulated. He let them walk freely away.
For me the significance of each face was the key theme, and each face held sorrow. There are some beautiful lines in the book around this. The ambitions: true and false in the “art world” also the business world resonated also. The Pastor’s words during a funeral at the end were valuable. And the little girl’s imagination (prompted by Theo) of all the musical notes flying on their wings into the chandeliers so that they can sing again later was a wonderful metaphor. There are some excellent passages in this book if you remain in it. As one grandmother said in this tale: “Baby, they’s justice and they’s mercy. If you not sure what to do and you gotta choose one or the other, I say always go the mercy way. If you make a mistake, make it for mercy. Bad mercy don’t hurt nearly like bad justice and always remember, the eye of God can see.”

⭐️ A Beautifully Written Story That Stays With You ⭐️
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
Theo of Golden by Allen Levi is one of those rare books that quietly settles into your heart and lingers long after the final page. The writing is intelligent, thoughtful, and beautifully crafted, with storytelling that feels both timeless and deeply human.
The characters are wonderfully developed and feel incredibly real, but Theo himself is unforgettable. I found myself learning so much from him along the way about life, people, kindness, and perspective.
Allen Levi has a gift for creating a world that feels warm, meaningful, and genuine. This was a truly lovely read, full of wisdom, heart, and beautiful prose. An easy five stars for me. 📚✨

Savor Theo -A Heart & Soul Dish
*No spoilers in this review
I found this book to be an unexpected banquet for my soul. I don’t read fiction very often, but as I read Theo of Golden, I realized I am hungry for what this story offers. Based on its swift and growing popularity, I believe the world is hungry for the gift of Theo of Golden.
When speaking on his book, Mr. Levi shared a quote from David Brooks, “ To write a book about kindness does not make you kind. To read a book about kindness does not make you kind… but to buy a book about kindness, that makes you kind.” 😄
This humor & humility — a “don’t take yourself too seriously” a welcoming accessibility is in the author and this book.
I love this spirit in the story —so much so, if I could hug this book any tighter— it would be behind me. (borrowing generously from Groucho Marx )
I started to do research on Allen Levi - who wrote this gift. He chose well, hundreds of little choices, keeping him close to beauty, kindness, meaningful relationships and community. His choices of early morning devotionals and prayer and regular visits to schools and coffee houses, to write songs instead of watch tv, all feeding the character of the author. I believe you cannot share beyond where you have traveled. He has traveled to deep places. A definite Ode to Joy prior to offering Theo was to write about the last 365 days of his brother’s life they shared after a cancer diagnosis entered. His brother’s early exit from here and entrance into heaven, I believe, prepared the way for one of the greatest fiction writings of our day.
Allen Levi’s habits to avoid technology and be fully present with the people in his life bleeds beautifully onto the characters of Golden. The environment is one which doesn’t talk about technology or politics. Just people connections. He firsts introduces us, then beautifully befriends us to a better way and a place, accessible to us if we would choose to allow mindful relationships to develop. All this making the community of Golden a place to cherish. Ultimately I believe the gift is to see Golden could be grown in a hometown, a neighborhood, with all people… It’s a heart posture- a posture that Theo bestows on the town.
In my ideal world, the author would meet another great songwriter, poet, storyteller: Ray Hughes. Ray is another gift to humanity, in creativity, intelligence, and accessing heaven on earth through words. I believe there would be a powerful explosion of hope, humor and generosity in their meeting, subsequent friendship & collaboration. I’m dreaming here, and lifting a prayer to the heavens- it would be awesome!!
With a grateful heart, I highly recommend Theo of Golden.
Humbly submitted,

A story of art, music and writing
Format: Kindle
Like the face of heaven. That’s how I see Theo, and I hope this will be a movie.
“Theo of Golden” is the debut novel by Allen Levi. He was writing as a personal challenge and just doing some scenes. He began writing in 2019-2020. He had been a songwriter and lawyer. He has no connection to Portugal, which is mentioned in the book quite a bit and led me to try Port wine. This book will lead me to do a lot of things.
Theo is a supremely interesting man! More on that other familiar interesting man in a later post.
The book will make you want to look at the faces of people. Use a gaze that calms and loves. Be kind and generous. Greet people. Be less fearful and exchange stories. Be attentive. Love people up close. Invest in the art of living. Be beautiful, useful and pleasurable. All which I should be doing, but will now do for Lent.
Theo listened with genuine interest, adoringly, encouraging and with gratitude.
Newborns look for their mother’s face, a particular gaze that calms, loves and welcomes them. Someone they recognize, run to greet and someone to bond with.
Levi signs the books “With thanks for the Theo in you.” He greets kids at a high school three days a week. He reads to second graders. He doesn’t mind being around people not like him.
The coffee shop setting is a real place in Columbus, Ga. It’s called Fountain City Coffee. In picking bestowals of the sketches there, Theo looked for someone lost, weary, worried or troubled that the gift would encourage or help.
I got to hear him in a Zoom. A group of women from Vermont who lost their daughters came to Georgia on a pilgrimage. He was a steward of clean rivers and water and said the river still flows after death. He went through a “walking season” in losing his daughter.
In a book about knowing a person, it is mentioned that a bench is a good way to do this. 7 p.m. was Theo’s meeting time with the strangers for bestowals and ended up being the time of the funeral. He also mentioned “Think Little” by Wendell Berry. Do so and if everyone does, it spreads.
Levi was born in 1956. His dad is 98. His mother passed and he lost his brother, whom he called a clone of Theo, at 55. His dad was a forester, explaining his interest in nature. Springtime is an end with a future, said Theo.
One character named Tony runs the Verbivore book store and has the Penny Loafers out there because they haven’t spent a penny and they majored in loafing. Theo and Tony end up having Port together and he told Theo is Viet Nam stories. The Penny Loafers were better than a room full of Senators. They lie. Tony ends up being more of a believer of Jesus at the end because he wasn’t before Theo.
James Ponder has no degrees hanging in his office. Note the “ponder” mentions throughout. He is a dispenser of advice, secret keeper and agent of calm. Secretary Mrs. Gidley was suspicious of Theo at first but comes around. Ponder was Theo’s landlord and mentioned the 18-inch railing and three flights of stairs before the 86 year old decided to live there.
Kendrick reminds me of the custodian who won “America’s Got Talent,” who has an ill daughter Lamisha, who wants to be a physical therapist or artist in the end. Her education will be paid for by Theo as were some of her medical bills. Maria Menendez is the daughter of the “little man” who killed Theo’s wife and daughter in an accident. Maria had cancer.
I don’t want to give away too much, but Theo decided to love Asher, the sketch artist, with two hearts. And there is much more to that.
Simone wears a wardrobe that honors music on stage and guests who come to listen did the same. Cello intricacies became fascinating to me and I looked up some of the music mentioned. His bow was a gift from Theo. He played Fado for Theo at his concert. It ended up being a requiem with three characters, Kendrick and Basil, the busker. Simone’s parents were there and I wasn’t clear if Theo sprang for their trip. At the end, Basil studies to get a doctorate in American literature.
Katherine is the reporter who respects Theo’s wishes while many people she interviews are praise seekers and applause junkies. He was a friend, not a headline.
Ellen rides a bike and I’ll just call her different. He gave her a foldable handsaw, cordless sander, drill and wood burner to make feather boxes. I have made one because of this book. She had $1,600 to her name from selling them, but gave the money to the cello fund after she and Simone were assaulted and the perpetrator was never caught.
Cleave is the poisonous guy—like a snake, hemlock, black widow or “words with no wisdom guy.”
All but Cleve show community in sitting on the same row or pew. They all have sparks of hope.
I loved this line: We walk all roads, long and winding. Road to ruin. Easy Street. Road less traveled.
I’m so mad that my notes from Chapter 10-28 somehow disappeared. I may reread. This post would be longer. I probably have a dozen favorite books and just added this one.

Recognizing the Hearts that Burn Within Us
Format: Paperback
Yes, Theo of Golden does, at times, border on the melodramatic and the sentimental. It can be repetitive. It can take an awfully long time to make its point. And yet, the novel speaks very significantly of the need for love, compassion, generosity and forgiveness---in a world that is not always kind, in a world where many of us carry secret burdens---where sadness (mixed with intermittent joy) might be viewed as a universal human affliction.
Theo of Golden is, overall, a book of glad tidings. An end with a future. Thoughtfully, warmly and intelligently written. A novel that often addresses the beauty of Art, most notably painting and music. A novel in which I learned what a fado is. In fact, I learned a lot from this novel.
Unlike some readers, I did not see the book as misogynistic or xenophobic. I didn't necessarily see it as "Christian fiction"---unless you mean doing good, striving for strength of spirit and understanding the connection between "the ultimate and the proximate, the wide grace and the narrow way."
Finally, I don't view the novel's conclusion as disappointing, but simply as falling action and resolution. It is, after all, a very traditionally structured work.
Kudos to the author Allen Levi for having written an initially self-published book that was later picked up by a major publishing house. That is, indeed, a rarity.
