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.

Cheese tortilla party

Making:  Cheese tortilla! 6 servings prepared. Here's what I have: 284 Grams of king Arthur masa harina 60 Grams cheese powder  30 Grams butter powder  419 grams hot water  Preparation: The dry ingredients were combined in the mixing bowl. With the stand mixer set to stir I slowly added the hot water until the dough ball formed. Once everything was well Incorporated the adult wall was divided into six portions. A damp paper towel was placed over the dough so it didn't try out as the tortillas were cooked.  Using a parchment lined tortilla press each dough ball was pressed just before cooking on the Comal. Each side was allowed to cook for 30-45 seconds before flipping. This allowed each side to dry out just enough. The second cook was done until the tortilla puffed up and Browning was beginning to form.  The plate! - Kris
