At the end of 2020, she launched a line of retail sauces rooted in Poi Dog’s Hawaii-style cuisine that is available nationwide.

Guava Katsu sauce is a Japanese-style bbq and dipping sauce made with guava, miso, ginger, tomato and dried mushroom. It is meaty, rich and deeply flavorful — but it happens to be vegan!

Tropical, umami-rich, fruity and gingery, it works great as a substitute for ketchup! The usual uses for katsu - dipping panko-fried cutlets in it - will do just fine, but adding a few tablespoons in with the broccoli (or any other veggie) half way through while steaming tastes amazing. It also makes a great, vegan margarita base.
