Tasty Hayashi Rice Sauce Mix, 5.6-Ounce

Not like a beef stew flavor but more like a demi glace sauce flavor. I sometimes use it for the sauce over the hamburger as gravy, too. It’s a nice change from the beef stew.

Having made Japanese curry for a while, got this beef sauce roux to expand the range of recipes available to make up when the need arises. Works very similar to other S&B products with easy to follow instructions. Is very tasty and flavorful, especially when it gets cold out and you need something hot to help warm a person up. Similar to a mixture of gravy and certain sauces in many ways is the best way to describe it. Served with beef and vegetables works wonders and definitely recommend, especially when there isn't an Asian market nearby to get such items. Will definitely look about getting more in the future.

If you ever made japanese curry with the curry flavored roux, this works basically the same way, except you end up with quick roux thickened beef stew, with a sauce similar to demi-glace. All you need is some thinly sliced quick cooking beef and sliced onions. Serve over rice, preferably a japanese style of shirt grain rice. I like the Tamanishiki brand, of which I have bought about a dozen 15 pond bags over the last few years, but I haven’t tried too many other brands. Do not recommend Calrose rice, but I only trie it once. That was enough, and Tamanishiki is infinitely better in my opinion, though there are several other brands that, based on what I have read or heard, I wouldn’t hesitate to try if my regular brand was unavailable. Sorry for the tangent. In conclusion, S&B Tasty Hayashi Rice Sauce mix makes for a quick and great comfort food. The word hayashi comes from the French word hacker, like the word hash, as in hash browns, or corned beef hash, and related to the English hack, meaning finely chopped or cut up.

Has a very very mild flavor but still good

Bought this item could not find in local stores. Shipped all way from Japan. And you know what they did not charge a phenomenal amount like they do here in the U.S. for shipping etc. I paid I think like 8.00 a package got two very reasonable for item I could not locate here. Phenomenal Gravy!!! The best I have ever had and used in my stews and soups! Just takes a few weeks which is not a bother for something I want to keep in my pantry.

Amazingly tasty!!! Highly recommend, in flavor it reminds me a bit of Au Jus gravy, but with a more full and robust flavor. Will purchase again!

Rich and wonderful flavor. Its really easy to use since its a matter of just putting the roux blocks in.

It super tasty, one of the best things I have had in a while. My sister, who is not a fan of S&B curry, agreed it was delicious. I did cook the onions for a bit longer and carmelize them with cooking sherry before adding the beef. 5 stars cant wait see what else i can do with it.

Excelente 😁

Tastes great.

Great taste. Just love it

Mi novia ama la comida japonesa y quería probar una receta de spaghetti hayashi que vio en internet, por lo cual decidí probar este producto. Es un sabor totalmente distinto al curry de esta marca (que igual es delicioso y compro con frecuencia); es un demi-glace con intenso umami y sabor a res. Medio paquete (vienen 2 bloques) rinden lo suficiente para medio kilo de carne y ya preparado son fácil 6 a 8 porciones. Comimos muy rico casi toda la semana. Recomendado.
