Otafuku sauce never disappoints. I bought it in May and the expiration date is October of the following year, so I bought it while it was cheap and kept it in stock.
Thanks Weee
Hope it’s good

Make Okonomiyaki, so delicious~ This ingredient has the least sugar, and the ingredients are very similar to Okonomiyaki sauce. It's totally OK to put it in Okonomiyaki
I bought it because I want to make okonomiyaki.

The Korean tonkatsu sauce was sold out, so I bought it instead.
호롤룰르후루
I thought Otafuku Sauce was an okonomiyaki sauce, so I didn't know they also made tonkatsu sauce, so this was my first purchase. It's a relatively light sauce, but has a fruity and mild flavor. I thought it was helpful that there were instructions on how to make tonkatsu on the back of the package.

This bag on the inside makes it convenient and makes me cook it into soup by just using water and it’s super simple and easy to make and this makes this taste more gold and so enjoyable to drink it with noodles like ramen and that does the better thing for us.
