Japanese Steakhouse Yum Yum Sauce

Have you ever been to a Japanese steakhouse and devoured copious amounts of that delectable sauce they serve with pretty much everything?  I've often commented it's so tasty I could drink it with a straw. Don't judge me. This easy sauce is literally good on anything. We use it as a french fry dipping sauce or on grilled steak, chicken, pork, fried or grilled shrimp or fish.  It's also might tasty served on hamburgers or with vegetables as a dip.  Seriously good. I hesitate to call this "copycat" because as with all of my recipes, this is my personal take on yum yum sauce.

You can adjust the calories using lower fat mayonnaise and if you have a favorite sugar substitute, adapt it that way, too. Make it several hours in advance, or let it chill overnight for the best flavor balance.  It's scrumptious, and I hope you find as many uses for it as we have.
