wasabi mayo

Green heat spread

Wasabi mayo is a condiment blending mayonnaise with wasabi, the pungent Japanese horseradish.

The combination tempers wasabi's sharp heat while adding creamy richness.

It appears as a dipping sauce for sushi rolls, a spread for sandwiches and burgers, or a drizzle on poke bowls: The spicy tuna roll came with wasabi mayo on top.
