ANYWAYYYAH.... back to this quick blog post. And this one is all for my hubby. I promise you that it will relate to only .00062% of the rest of you, and in the time-honored fashion of rounding off numbers, we'll just give it an even zero. I'm merely posting this so I'll remember how I made this recipe a year from now when I run out again.
See that stuff? It is called wasabi sesame drizzling sauce and I found it last year at Trader Joe's. Had I known that it would eventually become hubby's closest and most coveted condiment, I would have bought more than one bottle. But as common sense usually dictates in such incidences, I tend to buy only one of something until I know whether or not I like it. We loved it (of course) and the next time I went back to Trader Joe's and tried to purchase another bottle, I was told that it was discontinued (of course.) Just like when Mary Kay discontinued the jade eye pencil and pink eyecicles that made me look like a cover girl. (Some things a girl just never gets over.)
Hubby puts this stuff on his grilled fish, especially tuna, mahi mahi and salmon. HE LOVES IT!! When I read the list of ingredients, I figured out that I could come pretty close to whipping up something comparable. And I did! Twenty seconds in the blender (not me.... the ingredients) and I was back on the computer licking my "Wars With Friends" wounds. (That's what I call it now.)Wasabi Sesame Drizzling Sauce
1 1/2 ounces prepared wasabi paste (that's the entire tube)
1 1/2 ounces soy sauce (I used reduced-sodium)
2 ounces sesame oil
3 ounces canola oil
Put all ingredients in blender and process for 15-20 seconds. Pour into jar. Cover and store in fridge.

That stuff's gotta pack some heat. Hubby would love it. I have so far stayed far, far away from Words with Friends on facebook. I'd never sleep. Or get work done, or eat. No, I'd eat.
Yum!!! This sounds absolutely delightful....although I waffle between loving wasabi and having to drink a gallon of water to calm my burning mouth. :) Glad to "see" you here again! :)
Yum! Looks so darn tasty I'm gonna' have to try it - do you think it'll give the Sriracha a run for its money?
This sauce sound delish!
Don't you love it when you can do your own version of something?
WWF, not for me. Requires way too much thinking. I am way more an Angry Birds or Fruit Ninja person. Mindless entertainment ;)
Well, I'm thinking love it here but I'm a heat freak anyway...and anything with wasabi is going to grab my attention. Grumpy wouldn't touch it though. Of course, he's a wuss and I AIN'T afraid to tell him. ;)
Thanks for posting this. I just had the same experience myself. I hate it when TJ's discontinues things I love. I will try this recipe tonight.
So glad you made a receipe..my daughter( age 5) and I loved that dressing and had same experience of "been discontinued"....we'll try it!
