Ive never heard of GM .
it seems to be in the SoySauce group .
how does it differ from the various SS's in flavor ?
It is in the soy sauce group - but it's very different. I can't really describe the flavor - it's a lot of umami, but it goes well with the Thai trinity of stir fry sauces: oyster sauce/fish sauce/GM sauce. I definitely wouldn't put it in anything I would consume raw - I feel like it gains something when it's been cooked through. I think it's like the liquid equivalent of MSG - you use it when you use salt, but it's different.
Also, you don't use very much - just a few dashes... it can quickly overwhelm and that's just yuck.
