Matsuya Foods Says the Dish Is Finished With the “Oil-Cooking” of a Tonkatsu Chain

The notice describes the meat used as “carefully selected Aussie Sheepmeat,” and says the “‘oil-cooking’ only a tonkatsu chain can do makes the sheepmeat tender and juicy.” The seasoning is a “soy sauce-based special tare,” and the notice adds that “the vegetables, thoroughly coated in the tare, are finished to a flavor worthy of the main role.”
