"This sauce will make you say, "ME-OWWWWWW!" with it's citrus and spice! It's easy to throw together, but beware the wasabi and red pepper flakes! Gato and I like it HOT! Be sure to adjust the "heat" to your family's taste."

Delicious. Made it w/out the wasabi since I had just a little left and wanted to serve it on the side. Easy and tasty with the ahi and also with the gyoza we had with it. Thanks.
