New from Kikkoman
Introducing Kikkoman Poke Sauce and Ponzu Citrus Seasoned Dressing & Sauce. Kikkoman Poke Sauce is created from Kikkoman Naturally Brewed Gluten Free Soy Sauce, toasted sesame oil and a dash of spicy chilli. It’s a palate-pleasing blend of spicy, savoury and sweet, can also be used as dressing for salads and noodles and as a flavourful dip sauce for samosas and sausage rolls or any finger food.
Perfect for Poke Bowls, a dish from Hawaii, which can be made in a variety of ways, especially with beautiful New Zealand kai moana; and Kikkoman has made the sauce part easy! To create the perfect Hawaiian poke bowl at home, simply grab fresh shrimp or cubed raw fish and serve with Kikkoman’s Poke Sauce over rice and vegetables.

Kikkoman Ponzu Citrus Seasoned Dressing & Sauce is a Gluten Free Kikkoman Soy Sauce blended with aromatic lime, one of Japan’s favourite condiments.
It has a lovely sweet, sour and salty flavour, full of umami with a citrus twist. Perfect for fish, red and white meat as well as being a fantastic dressing for fresh salads. Jazz up your summer meals with Kikkoman Ponzu Citrus seasoned dressing.
For an unforgettable dipping sauce put garlic, onion, brown sugar, ginger, chilli and Ponzu sauce into a food processor and blend them with olive oil. Or simply mix Kikkoman Ponzu sauce with crushed garlic and marinate chicken breast with it overnight before you fire up the BBQ - you’ll love it.
