This Japanese-inspired steak sauce is typically made with tomato paste, but I’m adding some Korean flair by using gochujang (Korean chili paste) in order to bring some unique flavor to this delicious condiment.

How to Use Yum Yum Sauce

You can use Yum Yum Sauce just like you’d use any condiment, including:

  • On Gochujang Chicken
  • With tacos
  • On sandwiches
  • On burgers
  • To spice up a potato salad

Yum Yum Sauce Ingredients

This is literally so simple and only uses 4 ingredients:

Mayo: As the base.

Gochujang: To bring a unique spicy sweetness.

Ketchup: Can use tomato paste as well here, but I liked how it turned out with ketchup.

Salt: To make it all sing.
