The Key Flavors You Need For Homemade Tonkatsu Sauce - Tasting Table

Tonkatsu sauce is a rich, complex Japanese condiment for pork tonkatsu, commonly compared to barbecue sauce, but more savory and flavorful.

Chef Koj shares, 'It's pretty hard replicating Bull Dog Tonkatsu Sauce with raw ingredients... But if you want to synthesize tonkatsu sauce, you can achieve it with mustard, tomato ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and honey.'

Making homemade tonkatsu sauce is similar to replicating popular sauces. You can get close to the flavors, but additives are key to the exact mouthfeel.

For an easy homemade tonkatsu sauce, mix together ginger, ketchup, soy sauce, brown sugar, and mirin for a fresh and delicious alternative.
