Kikkoman Launches New Vegetable and Fruit Sauce
Kikkoman has announced the debut of its latest innovation, the "Kikkoman Domestic Vegetable and Fruit Delicious Sauce" in a 290ml bottle, set to hit stores nationwide on August 4. This new product celebrates the vibrant flavors of Japanese produce, offering a delicious medium-thick sauce made entirely from domestic ingredients like tomatoes, onions, carrots, and apples.
A Rich and Versatile Sauce
The new sauce stands out for its smooth texture and depth of flavor, making it an ideal condiment for fried dishes such as tonkatsu (breaded pork cutlet) and korokke (Japanese croquettes). However, its versatility doesn’t stop there; it’s also perfect for enhancing stir-fried noodles and a wide variety of other culinary creations. Whether you are preparing a quick dinner or an elaborate meal, this sauce is designed to elevate your gastronomic experience with its rich taste derived from the freshness of Japanese vegetables and fruits.
Kikkoman's commitment to utilizing 100% locally sourced materials reflects not only the company's dedication to quality but also its support for Japanese agriculture. By opting for home-grown ingredients, they ensure that consumers are receiving top-notch products rich in taste and nutritional value.
The Legacy of Kikkoman’s Chuno Sauce
Kikkoman holds a special place in the history of Japanese sauces, being the pioneer behind the concept of "Chuno Sauce" since its introduction in 1964, coinciding with the Tokyo Olympics. This groundbreaking sauce offered a balance between the existing Worcestershire and tonkatsu sauces, catering to the evolving needs of households at that time. Its introduction helped popularize mid-thickness sauces within Japanese cuisine, providing versatility and enhancing various meals in everyday cooking.
Following its initial success, Kikkoman expanded its Delicious Sauce brand in 1981, launching products that included Chuno, Worcestershire, and Tonkatsu sauces. This strategic diversification contributed to the brand's sustained popularity over the years, allowing Kikkoman to maintain its leading position in the market.
