Ingredients
  

For the Sauce
  • 1 cup mayonnaise Provides the creamy base.
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup Adds a sweet flavor.
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar Provides tanginess.
  • 1 tablespoon sugar Balances the tanginess.
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder Adds flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon paprika Adds warmth and color.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, rice vinegar, sugar, garlic powder, and paprika.
  2. Using a whisk or fork, blend everything together until smooth and creamy.
  3. Taste the sauce and adjust sweetness or tang by adding more ketchup or sugar if desired.
  4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
  5. Once chilled, serve the Yum Yum Sauce with grilled shrimp, as a dipping sauce for fresh veggies, or drizzled over Asian-inspired dishes.

Notes

Try using Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise for a healthier option. This sauce can be made ahead of time for even more flavor.
