I found a recipe by a chef who bought the sauce, read the label for ingredients, and kept making it until he got it right. He said that the type of mayo used will affect how it tastes...I haven't had a chance to make it yet but the website is justtherecipe.com

I'm confused because I have been cooking for a long time... sure do know how to follow a recipe and I followed this to the letter. I know yum yum sauce and this wasn't it. Not sure why this is rating so well. Sorry. :(

You have to let it sit overnight and I'd use Hellmans Mayo. It's the best for this recipe. Don't use any other kind.

This is THE sauce! I've tried making it with other recipes that call for sriracha sauce, but it never came out right. The last time we went to our favorite Japanese restaurant the chef gave us the basic ingredient list -- identical to this. Everyone in our family loves it. Didn't have tomato paste so we substituted with ketchup and it was still great.

this recipe tastes nothing like the yum yum sauce at our local steakhouse. it tastes like straight mayo, and only straight mayo.

This was pretty close to what we get at our local Japanese restaurant. I added some pomegranate balsmic vinegar and it added the zip it needed.

Fantastic! I added a little more tomato paste and sugar to taste and this was GREAT! Letting it sit for a while lets the ingredients blend together, this is just like what they serve at our local japanese steak house! Thanks for adding this recipe!

I made this for the first time to go with my japanese chicken fried rice and it was awesome! Something easy to whip up and the final touch to an awesome meal.
