Mincemeat Katsu is a dish made by Sōma Yukihira during his cooking duel against Akira Hayama.
Description[]
The dish utilizes meat closest to the bear's bones, which was considered to be a risky gamble since it increased the chances of the bear's natural stink carrying over with the increased flavor. The dish is accompanied by a sauce made from caramelized Amur Cork honey, which accelerates the natural flavors of the bear meat.
