How To Make Vegan Okonomiyaki Sauce (Simple Japanese Sauce Recipe)
Vegan Okonomiyaki Sauce is a plant-based alternative to the traditional Japanese sauce used for topping Okonomiyaki, a popular savory pancake. This vegan version aims to replicate the rich, tangy, and slightly sweet flavor profile of the original without using any animal products.
Key ingredients often include vegan Worcestershire sauce and soy sauce for umami depth, maple syrup or sugar for sweetness, and ketchup or tomato paste for tanginess and color. Apple cider vinegar or rice vinegar can be added for acidity, while a thickener like potato starch or cornstarch might be used to achieve the desired consistency.
This sauce is easy to prepare by whisking together the ingredients in a saucepan and simmering until thickened, making it a delicious and ethical choice for dressing Okonomiyaki or other dishes.
