I wanted some tentsuyu, but it was just my husband and myself, so I thought I'd just mix together some ingredients to make our own!Add grated daikon radish or ginger if you like. For 1 serving. Recipe by Harapekomomochan

If you’ve ever been to Korean bbq you know that have dipping sauces for your meats and vegetables. My favorite sauce that Korean bbq offers is Ssamjang!Ssamjang is a sauce that is mainly made of fermented korean chili paste (Gochujang) and fermented soybean paste (Doenjang).Here’s a recipe I learned from my mother in law!

I didn't have enough tempura sauce and I didn't feel like going to buy any...The ratio for the soy sauce, mirin and dashi stock (dissolved in water) is 1:1:4. Recipe by EAST_BLUE

My parents-in-law always use this sesame dipping sauce.When you double the amount, adjust the flavour with salt at the end.In our family, even if the amount is doubled, we don't change the amount of salt. Recipe by megumaro

The ingredients for tempura include: squid, shrimp, octopus, horse mackerel, carrots, onions, Japanese leek, sweet potatoes, maitake mushrooms, shimeji mushrooms, fresh shiitake mushrooms, shishito peppers, lotus root, shiso leaves, taranome (a mountain vegetable), fukintou (butterbur sprouts), kabocha squash, eggplant, burdock roots.Tentsuyu sauce is a light sauce made with simmered mirin, kaeshi soy sauce and dashi stock. Ten-don sauce uses the above plus a little sugar to sweeten it. Tempura batter doesn't have to be smooth! In fact, it's better if its texture is a bit rough! To make dashi, use 3 cups (600 ml) water + 1 heaping teaspoon of dashi stock granules. Adjust the flavors to taste. For an easy-to-make amount. Recipe by Kokoacchi

Tentsuyu is the traditional Japanese dipping sauce that accompanies any kind of tempura. With only 4 ingredients: dashi, sugar, soy sauce, and mirin, this tempura dipping sauce can be put together in a matter of minutes. You can premake tentsuyu ahead of time and keep it in the refrigerator for whenever you serve tempura.Since I have gluten allergy, I’m showing you how to make a gluten-free tempura dipping sauce. However, if you don’t have gluten allergy, just use regular soy sauce instead of gluten-free soy sauce. The ratio stays the same.Instruction video: https://youtu.be/rXIiPgge6FE

Not really much back story here. Just my favorite gyoza dipping sauce.

I usually have"Multi purpose mentsuyu concentrate" in stock, but I decided to upload this version too since many people only have dashi stock granules on hand.It is a bit different from the usual recipes, but I experimented many, many times in order to make a tasty mentsuyu sauce even using dashi stock granules.Even if it's a bother, it makes a big difference to the flavor, so please don't skip the "boiling off the mirin" part in Step 1.If you let soy sauce come to a full boil it loses flavor, so please pay attention in step 4.This is a tasty mentsuyu sauce even if it's not an emergency.When you use dashi stock granules, the flavor does tend to be a bit harsh, so I increased the amount of mirin. Please use more or less mirin to taste.I gave a wider range for the water amount, to account for the tastes of people used to the strong concentrated flavor of store-bought mentsuyu concentrate.

I wanted to make unique noodles for hot days.I made the soup strong to go well with the dipping noodles.Make sure to chill the soup, noodles, and ingredients. Recipe by Otometeo

Pepper, salt and soy sauce are also delicious, but for tempura, you just gotta have tentsuyu!I happened to be out of usukuchi light soy sauce, so the picture actually shows it made with dark soy sauce. The real thing should be a bit lighter. Recipe by Tochijimatochiko

For soba or somen noodles.I think I saw this in the newspaper or a magazine about 10 years ago.Or at least that's about how long ago I took down the recipe.For dipping sauce, use this recipe as is. If serving the noodles in the sauce, dilute with 4 times as much dashi stock. Recipe by Pangu-

This is my family's udon noodle broth.Even I, who only ever buys the bare minimum when it comes to ingredients, had what I needed to make the soup broth.The meat and shiitake mushrooms soak up the delicious flavors of the broth.You don't need to measure the ingredients precisely. Adjust the concentration to your liking. You could add aburaage or other ingredients. The ingredients will cook through enough after bringing the saucepan to a boil. It's fine to turn off the heat immediately after bringing it to a boil.I served it with my DIY udon noodles Recipe by Myajima
