Preparation method

How do you make this?

Making Wasabi Mayonnaise
Place the egg, peanut oil, wasabi, lime juice, and a pinch of salt in a tall measuring cup or bowl.

Emulsifying
Use an immersion blender from the bottom of the cup and slowly lift it while blending until you achieve a smooth, creamy sauce. You can also use a whisk and beat the ingredients until a thick mayonnaise forms.

Seasoning
Taste the mayonnaise and add extra wasabi or salt to your liking so it has just the right amount of kick.

Chilling
Pour the wasabi mayonnaise into a jar and store in the refrigerator until ready to use.

Tips

Use a tall measuring cup with an immersion blender to avoid splashes and achieve a smooth emulsion.
Let the oil flow in slowly while blending for a stable texture.
Adjust the amount of wasabi according to how spicy you want it: start with less and taste.
Use fresh lime for a brighter, fresher flavor than bottled juice.
Stir before each use, as the sauce may separate slightly after storage.
