Okonomiyaki Sauce

½ Tbsp Worcestershire sauce

Tbsp oyster sauce ((If you're allergic to

½ Tbsp sugar ((Add more sugar, if needed))

Japanese Condiment: Ponzu Sauce. Enjoy making this all-purpose Japanese citrus sauce at home!

Ponzu Sauce

soy sauce

lemon lemon

mirin ((2 Tbsp sake

katsuobushi (dried bonito flakes) ((packed; 6 g; skip

kombu (dried kelp) ((2" x 3" strip; 6 g))

Gather all the ingredients.

Combine all the ingredients in a sterilized mason jar and mix well.

Steep in the refrigerator overnight (minimum), for several days, or for up to a week. Some restaurants steep for a month, especially if you make a big batch.

After steeping, drain over a sieve to get rid of katsuobushi and kombu. You can use leftover kombu and katsuobushi to make homemade furikake (Japanese rice seasoning).

You can keep homemade ponzu in the mason jar for up to 1 month (to be safe); however, if you substitute mirin with water and sugar, please use it within a week. When you use ponzu, make sure not to cross-contaminate. The sauce can last for 6-12 months if you sanitize and keep everything clean during making the ponzu.

With all of this going on you’d think Ponzu would be all kinds of crazy! But we’re here to say that everything works together in perfect Japanese harmony.

Ponzu isn’t just a delicious Japanese dipping sauce with Shabu Shabu or Gyoza, it’s  also the perfect salad dressing, steak sauce or meat glaze. Find out more below!

Keto Teriyaki Sauce - EASY Sugar-Free Japanese Recipe

Water

Tamari Sauce

Xylitol

Sesame Oil

Garlic Powder

½ teaspoon Ginger (ground)

Xanthan Gum

Sesame Seeds (optional)

Place all the ingredients, except the xanthan gum, in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk together.

Bring to the boil and reduce by about ¼ of a cup (keep a close eye on the sauce as it is prone to boiling over).

Sprinkle the xanthan gum over and whisk in.

Continue to boil until the sauce has thickened, then remove from the heat.

Stir through the sesame seeds, if using.

Serve the hot sauce over chicken, fish, steak or vegetables or allow to cool to room temperature before storing in an airtight container in the fridge.

Here's a quick &amp; easy recipe on how to make Yakisoba Sauce to season the popular Japanese fried noodles! The taste is as similar as the Otafuku's sauce.&nbsp;

Homemade Yakisoba Sauce

Worcestershire sauce

sauce

tsp sugar ((Add more sugar, if needed))

Whisk all the ingredients for Yakisoba sauce. It&#039;s important to taste the sauce and see if you need to add more sugar (For example, some ketchup is sweeter than others while some Worcestershire sauce is less sour than others.). Set aside.

You can store in a mason jar or airtight container for up to a month.

Creamy &amp; tangy with a consistent bite of texture, Tartar Sauce is a beloved condiment often enjoyed with Japanese seafood dishes. Here's an easy tartar sauce recipe you can make at home.

Tartar Sauce

eggs (50 g each w/o shell)

onion

pickle ((7 cornichons or 4 sweet gherkins))

¼ tsp kosher salt

black pepper

lemon ((more or less according to your taste))

mayonnaise

parsley ((optional))

mustard

Put water in a saucepan, and gently put eggs. Make sure the eggs are completely covered by water. Bring the water to boil on medium heat. Meanwhile you rotate the eggs with a spoon once in a while (this is a tip to make sure the egg yolk will be in center). Once the water boils, lower heat but keep the water boiling (but don’t let the eggs jumping around) for the next 12 minutes. Discard the water and run under cold water. When eggs are almost cool, they are ready to peel.

Meanwhile you dice the onion finely and soak the onion in cold water for 10 minutes to get rid of bitter flavor.

Finely chop the pickles.

Drain the onion after 10 minutes. Put it the center of paper towel and squeeze the excess water out.

In a bowl, break the eggs into small pieces with a fork.

Add the pickles, the onion, salt, and pe,pper and squeeze some lemon juice. Then add the mayonnaise (also parsley and karashi mustard) and mix all together. Cover and keep it in the fridge until used.

You can keep the leftovers in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Heat

Heat in microwave for 30 seconds or on low in small saucepan on the stove for a minute to help dissolve the sugar.

Serve

To serve, squeeze straight over the top of your okonomiyaki pancake in zig zag lines. Or pour in a huge dollop in the middle of each pancake, using a basting brush to spread evenly across the top. For best flavour, pair with kewpie mayonnaise, seaweed flakes (aonori) and bonito flakes (katsuobushi). Also goes well on Japanese Hamburgers.If using later, pour into a squeeze bottle or jar to store in the fridge.

You’ve just made Japanese pancakes and realised you’re out of sauce! Never fear – this 4 ingredient Okonomiyaki sauce recipe is here! With easy pantry ingredients, you’ll have it ready in minutes.

A Japanese Pancake’s best friend, this is the sauce that brings it altogether. A sweet and tangy sauce similar to bbq, it blends perfectly when combined with Kewpie mayonnaise. We love smothering the two on our Osaka style okonomiyaki!

You’ll usually see this lining the shelves in Japan, but it can be harder to find or expensive in Asian supermarkets in other countries. That’s why we love the independence of being able to recreate this at home. 

This is one versatile sauce! We love using this on our Japanese Hamburgers, or to shake things up as the sauce for Oysters Kilpatrick. With this sauce as the base, you could add ginger and turn it into yakisoba sauce or add ginger, garlic and oyster sauce to make takoyaki sauce!

No need for a trip to the Asian supermarket, you should have these ingredients already in your pantry – that’s a huge win for us!

Yakisoba Sauce Recipe

tbsp rice vinegar

tsp raw sugar

hoisin sauce

tsp minced ginger

Japanese 7 Spice (to taste, or chilli powder)

Add the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, tomato sauce (or ketchup), raw sugar, hoisin sauce, ginger and Japanese 7 Spice powder into a small bowl and mix well.

This amazingly easy and versatile recipe makes the most sweet, savory, and delicious eel sauce in only 20 minutes with 3 simple ingredients. (And no, it&#039;s not made with actual eels!)

Easy Eel Sauce Recipe (3 Ingredients!)

Mirin (or sake)

white sugar

Set a small sauce pot over medium heat. Measure and pour in the Mirin, soy sauce, and sugar. Stir to combine. Allow the mixture to come to a boil. Then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

The eel sauce is done when it has reduced by about half, and is thick enough to set up a little bit on a sushi roll. Remember, it will continue to thicken as it cools so remove it from the heat when it&#39;s just a bit runnier than desired.

Cool completely, then move the eel sauce to an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to a month.

Teriyaki Chicken Thighs Recipe

chicken thighs

cider vinegar

garlic clove,

pepper

cornstarch

rice,

Prepare the sauce

In a small bowl, combine sugar, reduced-sodium soy sauce, cider vinegar, minced garlic, ground ginger, and pepper, stirring until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is well blended.

Place the chicken in slow cooker

Arrange the boneless skinless chicken thighs in a 4- or 5-quart slow cooker and pour the prepared teriyaki sauce evenly over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are coated.

Slow-cook the chicken

Cover the slow cooker and cook the chicken on low heat for four to five hours, or until the chicken is tender and cooked through.

Remove the chicken and keep warm

Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a serving platter and cover to keep warm; reserve the cooking juices left in the slow cooker.

Prepare the sauce for thickening

Pour the reserved cooking juices into a small saucepan and skim off any fat from the surface before placing it over medium heat to bring to a boil.

Make the cornstarch slurry

In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with cold water until smooth, then gradually stir this mixture into the boiling cooking juices.

Thicken the sauce

Continue boiling and stirring the sauce for one to two minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to a glossy consistency suitable for drizzling.

Pour the thickened teriyaki sauce over the chicken thighs and serve immediately, preferably alongside hot cooked rice for a complete meal.
