DIY Sushi

Mr. Wonderful and I are crazy about sushi, you can typically find us at either XO on a Tuesday night (half off), or Tokyo Grill on a Friday night (best selection in town, plus crack ginger dressing for salad).  We are sushi-at-home amateurs, but that doesn’t stop us from trying to do this every now and again.  The end results taste a lot better than they look.

Here is a top secret recipe from the waitress from XO:

Spicy Dynamite Mayo

• ½ C Japanese mayo
• ¼ tsp roasted sesame oil
• 2 T Sriracha sauce

Japanese mayo differs from regular mayo in that it’s made with rice wine vinegar.  You can just as easily use regular or low fat mayo here but I wouldn’t mess with fat free.  Get serious.  You are basically eating negative cals with sushi, so do it up with a delish sauce.

Mix together the above ingredients.  Serve with rolls, on rolls, inside the rolls…basically you might consider this for a mask at some point too.  It’s pretty delicious.
