Way too sweet, couldn't taste the wasabi at all, nobody liked it. My guests actually told me how much they disliked it! I will not make again. As is, it tastes like extra sweet ketchup. If I were Rachel I'd be a little upset about this recipe being named after me.

My brother and I asked my Mom to find a different recipe than this one. Thank you.

With a change in technique, this recipe is actually a pretty good one. Knowing that it would be gritty, I microwaved this mixture for 30 seconds. It smoothed the sauce out entirely. Also, remember that sauces like this are 'to taste' so tweaking the wasabi and lemon juice a bit helps. For my family, I doubled the wasabi and lemon, and decreased the ketchup by half. Perfect in a pinch as I forgot to buy cocktail sauce at the grocery store today! Thanks, Rachel!

Okay. Am I allowed to say that this was not my favorite cocktail sauce recipe?

Being a fan of using brown sugar in many things I hoped this would be better than it turned out. As written, this recipe just didn't work for me.

I hate giving bad reviews. I have tried to make this (twice now) And I DO like wasabi. However, this recipe is terrible. I couldn't stand it at all, and a couple of my friends cooking with me did not like it either. So, it COULD be me, but I did try it twice. (With a friend along the way the second time!)

I've tried a few cocktail sauces on this site and didn't find what I was looking for and have to agree with boonesdaddy. I made two seperate recipes this original and yours and yours took the cake. Everyone gobbled it up, I printed it but you should post it on AR.
