Origin Story: Let’s be honest, the British approach to “Teriyaki” usually involves a bottle of syrup-adjacent sauce from a supermarket shelf and a hopeful prayer to the gods of umami. The Flavor Department at Walkers decided to skip the guesswork and just distill the essence of a high-heat wok sear directly into a crisp. It’s an ambitious attempt to transport a rainy Tuesday in the Midlands straight to a neon-lit alley in Shinjuku, all without the need for a passport or an actual plane ticket.
