directions

  • In a medium bowl, add the 3 egg yolks, whole egg, and a little vegetable oil.
  • Note: Be careful to add the oil very slowly. If too much is added at once, the mixture will separate and be wasted. You can tell the mixture has separated when it does not look smooth and creamy like mayonnaise.
  • Using a hand-held blender, begin mixing until of mayonnaise consistency, slowly adding the rest of the oil.
  • Add white pepper, salt, soy sauce, and remaining oil.
  • Mix until well blended.
  • Use with seafood or chicken, covering with sakura sauce when almost completely cooked.
  • Sprinkle wine around food, simmering for 3 to 4 minutes, and serve.
  • *The wine creates steam so sauce will cook on top.

  1. I would definitely make this in a food processor, not by hand. It should thicken then.
     
  2. I want to apologize for posting this recipe without actually trying it first. So, please be warned that a few people have tried this, and it isn't turning out right. If anyone knows a better or correct way to make it, please let me know. This was requested by me in the discussion group, and someone else passed it along to me. But, people are having problems with it being too thin. Would love suggestions, or correct way to make it! Sorry again, and thanks!
     
  3. I used 6 egg yolks and 2 whole eggs and beat by themselves for 10 minutes. They thickened on their own. Then I added 2/3 cup of vegetable oil at a time slowly until it was the right consistency 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and left the salt and pepper the same.... Turned out perfect :)
     
  4. I got better results using 1 Cup of oil instead of 1 Qrt. You can also use Crisco.
     
  5. OK guys ive played with a recipe simular to this in the past and have devolped the answer you are all looking for... Instead of using 3 egg yokes use the 3 egg whites and the 1 whole egg then follow the recipe blending with the 1/2qt of oil then adding the rest of the recipe after you get the mayonaise consistency. Be very easy with the soy sauce its potent! You will have an amazing sauce if its done right!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Hello! I am a thirty-nine year old mom with two children. I am originally from Xenia, Ohio where I have lived longer than anywhere, but have lived in many different places. Ohio is one of my favorite states...I love the different seasons here! I love to remodel and decorate homes, when I have the time, and of course, I'm very passionate about cooking!! There is a long line of great cooks in my family and I am trying to put together a cookbook for them, from recipes they've shared with me. I have no favorite cookbook...I love picking up new (even better...very old) ones from yard sales, Ebay, Amazon, or wherever I find a good book with a good deal! Love the Food Network and my favs to watch, when I have the time, are Giada De Lorentis & Tyler Florence.
