Yum Yum Sauce is a creamy, tangy, and slightly spicy Japanese-inspired dipping sauce that perfectly complements grilled meats, seafood, and vegetables. This versatile sauce blends mayonnaise with ketchup, sriracha, and a mix of seasonings and vinegars to create a rich flavor that is both sweet and savory, making it a popular accompaniment for hibachi-style dishes and more.
Ingredients
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup of mayonnaise and 3 tablespoons of ketchup until smooth and fully blended.
Mix in 1 tablespoon of sriracha sauce, 1 teaspoon of paprika, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon onion powder to the bowl, stirring thoroughly to distribute the flavors evenly.
Pour in 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar and 1 tablespoon of mirin into the mixture. These add a subtle tanginess and sweetness that balance the sauce.
Continue mixing all ingredients briskly until the sauce is creamy and uniform in texture.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. This resting time allows the flavors to meld together for a richer taste.
After chilling, give the sauce a final stir and serve as a dip or drizzle over your favorite grilled dishes, vegetables, or sushi.
