About this product
Yama Foods Unagi Kabayaki Sauce is a sweet, savory soy-based sauce traditionally used to glaze grilled eel (unagi). It is similar to teriyaki sauce: both combine soy sauce and mirin (sweet Japanese rice wine), sweetened with sugar. Teriyaki often includes ginger and/or garlic, while kabayaki sauce does not. The taste is sweet, with saltiness from the soy sauce.
Kabayaki refers to the grilling method, which is why the sauce is also called unagi sauce. This style of grilling is mainly used for seafood and fish, such as swordfish and sardines.
Usage and preparation
Use the sauce to glaze grilled eel. It also suits sushi, grilled meat and rice dishes. Unagi kabayaki is usually eaten with white rice. For extra heat, sprinkle the dish with sansho pepper.
