I also found this recipe on Epicurious--but it differs a bit in that there is no ginger added in that recipe. I did add the ginger to mine, but as I am not so fond of it, I think I would omit it next time. I made the wasabi mayo with all mayo and some extra wasabi. -
YUM! The wasabi-mayo goes great with tuna steaks! This recipe got rave reviews from my fiance. We love wasabi so I added another 2 tsp to the mayo then garnished with extra green onions when it was served. I made homemade mashed potatoes and next time I'm going to use this wasabi mayo to blend into them because we both discovered that tasted great! This recipe is a definite keeper. -
This recipe was so easy, and tastes amazing. I had to use seasoned rice vinegar, because I did not have unseasoned, but the marinade was great. I also had to substitute horseradish for the wasabi paste, but the mayo dressing had just enough bite to it, and I was very pleased with the results. I have added this to my saved recipes, and will be making this again in the future! -
This wasabi mayo is AMAZING!!!!! I used a little less mayo and little more sour cream as we're not huge fans of mayo. But again it was superb!!!!!! I cant wait to make it again!!!!!! -
too easy...came out perfect! make sure when you sear the lid to the grill is open or it will cool through

This recipe was awesome! The marinade was fantastic. I didn't have all the ingredients so did a bunch of substitutions:<br/>- no teriaky so I used some brown sugar and a bit extra soy sauce<br/>- didn't have ginger so I omitted it<br/>- used seasoned rice vinegar instead of unseasoned<br/>- had no sour cream so just skipped it<br/><br/>Regardless it was awesome. My husband loved it. We used Ahi sushi-grade tuna and it was melt-in-your-mouth! I thought the wasabi mayo was a pretty cool touch but the recipe was great even without it. <br/><br/>Thanks!<br/>Elissa -
