One Taste and You’ll Put This Keto Yum Yum Sauce on Everything
Warning, you’ll want to put this sauce on everything…
Keto friends, today I present to you a sweet and spicy Yum Yum sauce that is keto-friendly and a perfect addition to your high protein lifestyle… shrimp, chicken, or beef. This keto sauce goes well with really anything!
This is also my personal favorite go-to yum yum sauce for sushi inspired poke bowls and tofu dishes. This is a wonderfully versatile sauce that takes me right back to my childhood visits to the hibachi restaurant in my hometown – chicken, veggies, and that sauce.
It begins with an avocado oil mayo base, some flavorful oils and hot sauce, and a simple blend of savory spices. It’s honestly great on everything and just so easy to whip up, let me show you how!
Hip tips for making the best keto Yum Yum sauce:
- You can use your favorite keto mayo for this recipe. If you’re looking for recommendations, try Kewpie Japanese mayo for a yolky and savory base, or try Primal Kitchen’s avocado-oil based mayo which is what I used for this recipe, as it is a bit lighter and the perfect canvas for this flavor-packed sauce.
- You can gauge the heat here by adding more or less sriracha. This hot sauce is best for that spicy punch which is balanced out by the addition of some Swerve.
- With sesame oil, just a little goes a long way. It is very savory, rich, and full of heart-healthy antioxidants.
- The best part of this Yum Yum sauce is its shelf life! Pop it in the fridge and it will stay fresh for about 2 weeks and can be used for all your Asian-inspired meals.
