Spicy Mayonnaise (Yum-Yum Sauce)
To achieve the rich, savory flavor of the spicy mayonnaise served in Japanese steakhouses, we added a tablespoon each of melted butter and umami-rich red miso. A bit of tomato paste added even more savory-sweet depth while paprika and cayenne amped up the spice, creating the perfect sauce to accompany our Japanese Steakhouse Steak and Vegetables.
