Japanese Sauces

Japanese Sauces
The Japanese use a variety of savoury sauces to pep up their food. Several are inspired by Worcester sauce, which was brought to Japan and adapted. As well as the thin, spicy Worcester sauce, there is a thicker, milder and sweeter tonkatsu sauce, often used with the deep fried pork cutlet dish of the same name. In addition, there is a sauce formulated specifically for serving with o-konomiyaki (savoury pancakes), and a chuno sauce that blends both mild and spicy flavours.

Gaban Japanese Pepper
Gaban Co., Ltd.

Made from the seed pods of the sansho tree, this fine pepper is an essential ingredient in authentic Japanese cuisine with its unmistakable tangy flavour and a delicious spiciness. Gaban makes its superb pepper from a unique blend of the powdered seeds of Japanese, Chinese and Korean sansho trees. This pepper is used as an everyday condiment, similar to pepper in Western diets, and goes particularly well with grilled eel, yakitori chicken and saba (mackerel) cooked with miso.
