Yakitori Dip?
Wednesday April 18, 2007
Have you had diping sauce at a yakitori restaurant? A Japanese Cuisine forum user asks: "At the yakitori restaurants, they have a thick brownish dip which they serve, it is really yummy with the raw cabbage they serve, does anyone have a recipe for that? Do you use the dip for all the other yakitori dishes as well?" Post your suggestions in the forum!

Tonkatsu sauce, I’ll bet.

It is not tonkatsu sauce. It is served with Yakitori in the better restaurants in Roppogi but I too can never find the recipe. Please someone help us.
after years of trying, I figured out a combination of ingredients that taste just like the Yakitori I had as a kid.
Japanese soy sauce, white sugar and fine garlic powder, make a super saturated solution of soy and sugar, add some garlic and stir, then heat to boil and reduce solution, takes several minutes and must be stirred constantly, once it has been reduced to a syrup, put into a container to cool and wash everything quickly cause it sticks. that is it, you have to experiment with the amounts to get what you think is right. I usually start with 2 C soy, 1.5 C Sugar and .33 C garlic.
