How to Make Wasabi Cream Sauce

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.

  3. Remove from heat and let the sauce stand for 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  4. Stir in 1-2 teaspoons of wasabi paste (start with 1 teaspoon and add more to taste). Mix thoroughly until well combined.
  5. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more lemon juice for extra zing or tamari for extra savory depth.
  6. Serve immediately over your favorite fish or use as a dipping sauce for spring rolls, dumplings, or other Asian-inspired dishes. Enjoy!
