Question 1

What is Japanese curry roux and how do you use it?

Accepted Answer

Japanese curry roux is a solid block of concentrated curry base made from fat, flour, and a blend of spices. It acts as both a flavoring and a thickening agent, allowing you to create a rich, velvety curry sauce simply by dissolving the bricks in boiling water with your choice of meat and vegetables.

Question 2

Which brand of Japanese curry roux is the best?

Accepted Answer

The 'best' roux depends on your taste. S&B Golden Curry is famous for its traditional, well-balanced spice. House Vermont Curry is loved for its mild, sweet profile featuring apple and honey, while Java Curry offers a more robust and spicy kick. You can find all these top-rated brands right here on Yami.

Question 3

Is Japanese curry roux gluten-free?

Accepted Answer

Most commercial Japanese curry roux bricks contain wheat flour as a thickener, meaning they are not gluten-free. However, there are specific gluten-free Japanese curry options and powders available. Always check the ingredient list on the product page at Yami for the most accurate information.

Question 4

How spicy are the different levels of Japanese curry roux?

Accepted Answer

Japanese curry roux is typically categorized into Mild, Medium-Hot, and Hot. Unlike Thai or Indian curries, even the 'Hot' version of Japanese curry is relatively mild and focuses more on rich umami flavors than intense chili heat. S&B Golden Curry Medium-Hot is a popular middle-ground choice for most families.

Question 5

How should I store leftover curry roux blocks?

Accepted Answer

Once the inner foil packaging is opened, it is best to store the remaining curry roux blocks in an airtight container in the refrigerator. This helps maintain the freshness of the spices and prevents the fats in the roux from going rancid. It can typically be stored this way for several months.
