Good marinade, but the sauce wasn't for me. I just used the tonkatsu sauce I had on hand instead. Oh, and I omitted the salt, the soy sauce is salty enough, 1/4 tsp of salt isn't going to change anything. Also you might try adding some ginger slices to your marinade! I thought it went really well with mine.
Cheers!
