About the use of soy sauce in Mongolia

Although this may be true of some Mongolian people, many of the Mongolian recipes I discovered in my research call for soy sauce, as well as a significant number of recipes in my Mongolian cookbook. So it's probably inacurate to say that Mongolians never use soy sauce, and that all Mongolians hate the Chinese.

Buuz, pronounced boats is pretty much the only thing found in the freezer section of the food store,
The only package I say in english read: Mutton, Camel Spine, salt, flour, water and other species, I prayed that was a misprint and ment spices.
The Mongolians put cubes of fat in all their food, they love it!
I ate my boats with holsin sauce, very tasty, but the Mongolians thought I was nasty for doing that.

Any questions on Mongolian cuisine email me:

I'm a Chef and spent 4 months in Ulaanbaatar.
They dont use beef only Mutton.
Mutton, flour, salt and water are the basics for any true Mongolian dish
