About House Foods House Foods traces its origins to Urakami Shoten, a herbal-medicine business founded in Osaka in 1913 by Seisuke Urakami; it began selling curry powder in 1926, launched Java Curry in 1968, and its parent company is today the largest manufacturer of curry and stew mixes in Japan. House Foods America Corporation supplies the range for the North American market. What is Japanese curry roux Japanese curry roux is a solid block of seasoned curry base — fat, flour, curry spices and savoury seasonings. You simmer meat and vegetables, then dissolve the roux in to make a thick, glossy Japanese curry sauce. How to use & enjoy Curry roux is a cooking ingredient rather than a ready-to-eat sauce: the solid block is stirred into a pot of sautéed meat and vegetables simmering in stock or water, where it both thickens the liquid and seasons it into a rich, gravy-like Japanese curry sauce. The finished sauce is classically ladled over steamed short-grain rice as karē raisu — a national comfort-food dish in Japan. The same sauce is behind several Japanese favourites: katsu curry, with a crumbed, deep-fried pork or chicken cutlet served over or beside curry rice; and curry udon, where the sauce is loosened with dashi stock into a soup and ladled over thick udon noodles. Curry rice is commonly served with a side of fukujinzuke, a Japanese pickle relish.
