How to make Yum Yum Sauce:

Add all of the yum yum sauce ingredients into a bowl and whisk together.

Put the mixture in the fridge, covered, until ready to serve.

What is the best way to store yum yum sauce?

The best part about making this sauce is that it will keep for up to 8 weeks as long as you store it properly. All you need to do is add it to an airtight container and store it in the fridge.

It’s also important to understand that if you want to use the sauce again, use a clean spoon to dip it into the sauce. Don’t use a spoon that has any ingredients on it or one that has been eaten off of.

This will add bacteria to the sauce and can contaminate the whole bowl.

Is yum yum sauce spicy?

It can be, but it doesn’t have to be! Yum yum sauce can be made mild, or you can kick up the heat and make it as spicy as you want.

How do I serve yum yum sauce?

Typically this sauce is added to the top of Asian recipes. It pairs really well with chicken dishes or even sushi, but can also be used to drizzle on top of vegetables.

You can also keep it simple and pair it with simple brown rice or white rice as well.

What does Yum Yum sauce taste like?

This answer will depend on who you ask. Some will say that it’s a bit sweet, and some will say spicy depending on if a lot of spice was added.

The great thing about making your own sauce is that you can change how it tastes each time that you make it. The first time, make it not as spicy as you can always increase the heat from there.

If you’re a heat fan and risk taker, you can then make it as hot as you want.

Can I make yum yum sauce in advance?

You can. Since you can store it in the fridge for up to 8 weeks, there’s no harm in making the sauce in advance. Just be sure that you are storing it properly and covering it so that it lasts in the fridge.

One fun way to store it is to add it to a squeezable condiment bottle. That way, when the time is right to add it to a dish, you can just grab the bottle, squeeze, and enjoy.

You can also store it in a couple of different types of containers so that you can use it in different ways. Just keep it cool and in the fridge, and there shouldn’t be any issues.
