There's a lot to like about Kewpie Mayonnaise from Japan. Lots of people prefer it over American mayonnaise for its distinctive flavor. It goes great on salads, sandwiches, seafood, and plenty more. Cook with it. Dip it. And enjoy how easy it is to get every last drop out of the convenient, soft plastic bottle.
Its memorable taste comes from seasoning with rice wine vinegar and MSG, which provides a rich umami flavor, and the fact that it's made from egg yolks instead of whole eggs.
Spicy Mayo Recipe:
Mix Kewpie Mayo, Sriracha, and Low Sodium Soy Sauce to taste. For more flavor and texture, add a minced shallot. Pairs well with sushi, poke bowls, or as salad dressing.
Takoyaki Dipping Sauce:
Mix 3 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce, 1 tsp mentsuyu, 3/4 tsp sugar, 1/2 tsp ketchup in a bowl to make a delicious Takoyaki Sauce. Add Kewpie Mayo in a second bowl and enjoy the authentic flavors of takoyaki.
