What ingredients are in the "golden shrimp sauce" they put atop the grilled shrimp in teppan-yaki restaurants

Teppan-yaki restaurants are the ones like Benihana's, Domo77, Japan 77, Ron of Japan, etc. The golden shrimp sauce is put atop the grilling shrimp, then the lid is put on and the sauce puffs up and cooks during the steaming process. (I suspect it is an egg-based type of mayonnaise product) I'd like to know if it can be purchased commercially, or if it's merely concocted--and what a good recipe for it is. Thanks, and have a great day!|||After searching I came up with these two recipes. They are totally different so I will leave it up to you to decide which is closest to what your looking for...





The sauce is called sakura sauce. It is an egg yolk based sauce used for poultry, and seafood. Here is the recipe.





Sakura Sauce


3 egg yolks


1 whole egg


1 quart vegetable oil


1 tablespoon white pepper


1 tablespoon salt


Soy sauce to taste (approximately 5-6 tablespoon)


Cooking wine


Put 3 egg yolks in a tall quart-size cup. Put 1 whole egg in also. Add about 1/2 quart of vegetable oil. Use a hand held blender and begin mixing until it develops a mayonnaise consistency. Add white pepper, salt, desired amount of soy sauce, and another 1/2 quart of oil and continue to mix until well blended.


To use: After seafood or chicken is 75% cooked, cover with sakura sauce, sprinkle water/wine around it, simmer for 3 to 4 minutes and serve. The water is used to create steam so the sauce will cook on top. Enjoy!
