Cooking tips

  • When grinding the meat in the blender, add a small amount of breadcrumbs along with the meat. This absorbs moisture from the meat dough, giving it a firm, elastic texture that won't fall apart.
  • Sketch directly onto parchment paper to create a template, then place it on the meat dough and cut around it. This allows you to make a perfect and detailed character shape even without a mold.
  • To maximize the sweet and tangy flavor characteristic of old-school snack bars, slightly increase the amounts of ketchup and oligosaccharide (corn syrup) in the sauce blend compared to the standard.

Recommended for

  • Those who miss the spicy-sweet and tangy red sauce tonkatsu from school snack bars during their school days.
  • Those who want to have fun making cute shapes with their children and enjoy a crispy snack time.
  • Those who prefer healthy homemade snacks that are more hygienic and have higher meat content than store-bought products.
