How To Make Katsu Sando (Pork Cutlet Sandwich) At Home
Tonkatsu sando is a sandwich that takes tonkatsu (deep-fried pork cutlet) to a whole new level. If you’re a lover of sandwiches and tonkatsu, then why not combine them together and enjoy them at the same time? This delectable sandwich consists of pork cutlet dressed in savory tonkatsu sauce, topped with shredded cabbage, and wrapped in two pieces of fluffy shokupan.
If you’re unfamiliar with shokupan, it is the most standard type of bread in Japan and is usually the go-to bread for sandwiches. It has a light and fluffy texture but becomes chewy when you toast it. Its texture truly matches perfectly with tonkatsu.
The other ingredients in tonkatsu sandwich also play important roles in the sandwich. The shredded cabbage not only adds extra crunch to the sandwich, but it also gives the sandwich a bit of a fresh taste and makes it less heavy. The use of tonkatsu sauce makes the sandwich taste more savory, and it truly brings the whole sandwich together.
