Kikkoman Says “OLA!” to Latin Flavor

Sure, Kikkoman is your “go to” brand when it comes to Asian flavor. But don’t limit your creativity to one continent next time you pick up a bottle of Kikkoman Soy Sauce or your other favorite Kikkoman sauces. For example, a little soy sauce in the marinade for fajitas goes a long way towards creating mouth-watering flavor.

And just as a splash of soy sauce can spark great flavor in everything from salsa fresca to slow-cooked carnitas, a squeeze of lemon or lime lifts Latin dishes to new culinary heights. Kikkoman Ponzu makes it easy to add both in one simple step, with two delicious flavors of ponzu sauce — tangy lime and zesty lemon. Each is a carefully balanced blend of naturally brewed soy sauce, lemon or lime juice, vinegar and other seasonings. Ponzu is a “natural” for all kinds of Latin dishes, from warm weather favorites like ceviche and guacamole to hearty soups and stews.

Ponzu also makes a perfect salad dressing either on its own or with a touch of oil — try it on a crispy cabbage slaw with a sprinkling of pepitas (a crunchy combo of toasted pumpkin, sesame and cumin seeds), or to blend and lift the flavors of salsa fresca, For a sure-fire crowd pleaser at your next barbecue, add a splash of ponzu to mayonnaise and slather it on grilled corn on the cob, then dust with a pinch of chipotle powder.

Don’t forget to add a little ponzu to tortilla soup to brighten and round out the chicken flavor of the broth. And if you’re looking for a versatile table sauce, let ponzu work its magic on grilled meat, fish, poultry and vegetables. So don’t wait until manana — get cooking today with the great recipes in Kikkoman’s new downloadable bilingual brochure, Kikkoman Family Favorites with a Ponzu Twist. The “ponzu”-bilities are endless!
