About Miso katsu (Pork cutlet with miso sauce)

Miso katsu is so popular that it’s hard to find a tonkatsu restaurant in Nagoya that doesn’t serve it. Freshly fried cutlet is covered generously with miso sauce, making it tempting to order another bowl of rice. The dish consists of pork cutlet topped with a distinctive sweet sauce based on bean miso, such as Hatcho miso, bonito stock, and sugar. Many versions have a sweet-savory flavor, and each restaurant has its own secret sauce, with its own blend of ingredients and preparation method.
