Elevate your keto meals with this creamy, flavorful Keto Yum Yum Sauce, a low-carb twist on the classic Japanese steakhouse favorite. Made with simple yet bold ingredients like mayonnaise, unsweetened ketchup, smoked paprika, and a touch of keto-friendly erythritol for sweetness, this versatile sauce strikes the perfect balance between tangy and savory. Quick to prepare in just 5 minutes, itβs ideal as a creamy dip for grilled shrimp, a zesty drizzle over roasted vegetables, or a delectable topping for grilled chicken. Plus, the inclusion of soy sauce (or coconut aminos for strict keto) and rice vinegar adds depth and umami to every bite. Whether you're meal prepping or indulging in a quick snack, this keto-friendly condiment brings restaurant-quality flavor to your kitchen with minimal effort.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise and unsweetened ketchup. Whisk until smooth and thoroughly combined.
Add the granulated erythritol, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir well to evenly distribute the spices throughout the sauce.
Pour in the rice vinegar and soy sauce (or coconut aminos) and whisk to incorporate these liquid ingredients into the mixture.
Slowly add the water, one tablespoon at a time, whisking after each addition. This will thin the sauce slightly to achieve the desired consistency.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasonings if necessary, such as adding a pinch of salt or an extra sprinkle of sweetener for balance.
Transfer the Yum Yum Sauce to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. This step enhances the taste, but you can serve immediately if needed.
Serve cold or at room temperature as a dipping sauce, dressing, or drizzle for keto-friendly dishes such as grilled chicken, shrimp, or roasted vegetables.
