Tamari vs. Shoyu

I bought Tamari .. is there a big taste difference between Tamari & Shoyu? Meaning can I just substitute tamari for shoyu in Alicia's recipes???
Hi Michelle,
I think the only difference is that Shoyu contains wheat, and Tamari doesn't (which is obviously good if you're on a gluten-free diet).
I have Tamari leftover from a failed attempt at a GF diet, and I use it wherever a recipe calls for Shoyu (or regular soy sauce, for that matter), and they have turned out perfectly fine and scrumptious :-)
Thank you Tara !! Now I don't have to keep both on-hand.
