Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, water, sugar, paprika, garlic juice, ketchup, ground ginger, hot pepper sauce, ground mustard, salt, and white pepper. (2 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

Whisk all ingredients together vigorously until the sauce is smooth, creamy, and homogenous. Ensure no lumps of mayonnaise remain. (3 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Taste and adjust the seasonings as needed. Add more hot sauce for extra spice, or a pinch of sugar for added sweetness. (2 minutes)

04

Step
30 mins

Transfer the sauce to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. The sauce will thicken slightly as it chills. (30 minutes)

For an even smoother sauce, use an immersion blender to combine the ingredients.
If you don't have garlic juice, you can substitute with 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, but fresh garlic juice is highly recommended for the best flavor.
This sauce is excellent with grilled shrimp, vegetables, or as a dipping sauce for sushi rolls.
The sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

    I added a little bit of lemon juice for extra tang, and it was amazing!

  • Georgianna Howell

    I've tried other recipes, but this one is the closest to the real deal. The key is using Japanese mayonnaise!
