Tonkatsu sauce GF

Making:

Gluten free components for dinner

*Modifying various Tonkatsu sauce recipes to make a gluten-free version.

*Turning Glutino pretzels into crumbs for breading

I have a Hello fresh meal that required katsu sauce. Unfortunately I can't use what they sent so I'm going to try and make my own utilizing what I have on hand. I looked at a variety of recipes to come up with this mix.

Here's what I have:

1.5 tsp Worcestershire sauce

2 tbsp Tamari

2 tsp Dry mustard

1 tsp Ginger paste

1 clove Garlic

1/8 tsp Allspice

3 tbsp Apple cider vinegar

1/8 tsp Onion powder

1 tsp Dro Di Parma tomato paste

2 oz Glutino gf pretzel sticks

Tonkatsu preparation:

After running the garlic through the garlic press I put the components in a saucepan and let it heat up until the sugar was dissolved.

Breadcrumb preparation:

To crush these up I used a mortar and pestle normally I would run these through the food processor but it wasn't working. Alternatively you could put these in a bag and beat them with a mallet or rolling pin until you have a consistent crumb.

After preparation I ended up with a little over 1 oz of sauce and 2 oz of crumbs. I'm not sure if the Tonkatsu sauce I made comes close to what was sent but I do like the flavor of it.

Bacon butter!

Making: Today I'll be making bacon butter. Whenever I make bacon I save the grease. Now that I have enough it will be turned into batches of bacon butter. I used about 2.75 sticks of butter total. Cut into jars then I let them sit until the butter was close to room temperature. The bacon fat I have collected (Stored in the refrigerator) was heated in bits over a double boiler until liquified but not too hot. The melted bacon fat was poured over the butter. You can use a strainer to get rid of and chunky bits and then mixed until well incorporated. The smaller jars have just over 3 oz butter. The bigger jar has 4.3 oz butter. Here are the finished jars. These will be stored in the fridge and used to cook veggies and sear meats. You could also put herbs in the jar for different flavors. - Kris
