5 places you can buy eel sauce online
Here are 5 places you can buy eel sauce online. This is what I do when I do not want to make it from scratch.
#1 Amazon
Amazon sells a “Sushi Sauce” which is basically the same thing as Eel Sauce. If you are gluten-free, they also sell a gluten-free Eel Sauce.
#2 Walmart
Walmart sells Kikkoman Unagi sauce — and if you did not know this, Unagi sauce and eel sauce are the same thing.
#3 Target
Target also sells the Kikkoman Unagi sauce brand. If you go to the store, look for it on the aisle with the Asian foods.
#4 MTC Kitchen
MTC Kitchen sells an authentic eel sauce brand that is very inexpensive, and it looks like if you sign up for their email newsletter, you get an extra 10% off your order.
#5 Webstaurant Store
I love being able to buy sauces in bulk, so when I found out the Webstaurant Store sells this in a 5-pound jug, I thought I would share it with you, too.
What is Eel Sauce?
Eel Sauce is also called Natsume, Unagi, or Kabayaki. It is a sweet and salty sauce that goes great over grilled fish or chicken and is a common drizzle over sushi.
Traditionally, it is used on Japanese grilled eel and eel rolls. I also use this sauce over freshly cooked noodles for a quick snack.
