Sukiyaki Sauce
Hot pot is taking the world by storm. Sukiyaki sauce is the broth-like base for traditional Japanese hot pot — Sukiyaki. Sukiyaki consists of simple ingredients like meat and vegetables, which are cooked together in one shallow pot. A successful Sukiyaki is more than the proteins — the beef, chicken, pork, or tofu. It is also more than the colorful assortment of vegetables — carrots, mushrooms, onions, and leafy greens. It’s even more than the slurpable noodles. Delicious Sukiyaki begins with a great sauce.

Sukiyaki sauce has a sweet and salty flavor similar to Teriyaki sauce. While they share many of the same ingredients, the main difference is consistency. Sukiyaki has a soup-like consistency, while Teriyaki tends to be thicker. Our Sukiyaki sauce recipe benefits from the superb flavor-enhancing properties of San-J Tamari Soy Sauce, giving it a rich, umami taste.
