JAPANESE RESTAURANT SHRIMP SAUCE



Japanese Restaurant Shrimp Sauce image

We love the shrimp sauce at our local Japanese restaurant and I've worked from several recipes, adding my own tweaks and changes until I have found the right flavor for us. My husband says mine is better than the restaurant. :o) I hope you enjoy it as much as we do. It's wonderful with shrimp and veggies but also with chicken and steak! Do NOT substitute the Hellman's for some other kind of mayo. It makes a difference in the final product!

JAPANESE STEAKHOUSE WHITE SAUCE - SHRIMP SAUCE - YUM YUM SAUCE - SAKURA SAUCE RECIPE - (4.3/5)



Japanese Steakhouse White Sauce - Shrimp Sauce - Yum Yum Sauce - Sakura Sauce Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by á-4664

Number Of Ingredients 9

Japanese Steakhouse White Sauce - Chuck's Easy Recipe
1-1/4 cup Hellmann's mayonnaise *
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon melted butter
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon paprika
dash cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Using a fork or a whisk, blend all ingredients together thoroughly until well mixed and the sauce is smooth. Refrigerate overnight to allow flavors to blend. Bring to room temperature before serving. The sauce will NOT taste right if you don't let it sit overnight. And please don't try to substitute ketchup for the tomato paste! The water is needed to bring this to the right consistency. I don't know how long this keeps in the refrigerator; I've kept it 7-10 days, but I always wind up eating it all before 10 days so after that - anyone's guess. * Hellmann's is called "Best Foods" west of the Rockie Mountains. Use other mayos at your peril - many cheap brands make the sauce taste too much like mayo.

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp: Fresh shrimp have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen shrimp. If using frozen shrimp, thaw them thoroughly before cooking.
  • Clean the shrimp properly: Be sure to remove the heads, shells, and tails from the shrimp before cooking. You can also devein the shrimp if desired.
  • Cook the shrimp quickly: Shrimp cook very quickly, so don't overcook them. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for broccoli, carrots, and bell peppers, but you can use any vegetables you like. Some other good options include snow peas, snap peas, and zucchini.
  • Make sure the sauce is thick enough: The sauce should be thick enough to coat the shrimp and vegetables. If the sauce is too thin, add a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water) to thicken it.

Conclusion:

This Japanese shrimp sauce is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served over rice, noodles, or vegetables. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables! With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, this recipe is perfect for busy weeknight meals. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner idea, give this Japanese shrimp sauce a try. You won't be disappointed!
