Unagi Kabayaki Eel Sauce 1.8L – The Authentic, Glossy Glaze for Japanese Cuisine

Unagi Kabayaki Sauce, also known as kabayaki tare or unagi no tare, is the thick, sweet-savory glaze that defines the iconic Japanese dish of grilled eel. This 1.8L bottle delivers the authentic flavor of a traditional Japanese kitchen, making it an indispensable sauce for professional chefs and passionate home cooks alike.


More than just an eel sauce, this rich, dark, and glossy condiment is a versatile umami powerhouse. Crafted from a base of soy sauce, sweet mirin, and sugar, it is simmered to a syrupy consistency that clings beautifully to food. The result is a perfectly balanced flavor profile: a deep, savory soy backbone rounded by a pronounced, caramelized sweetness that is never cloying.


This 1.8L bulk size is the ideal choice for high-volume professional kitchens, ensuring you never run out of this essential sauce during service. It's also perfect for dedicated home cooks and small caterers who want a generous supply to elevate everyday meals. Whether you are preparing traditional unadon or experimenting with new recipes, this sauce guarantees a restaurant-quality finish every time.
