Combine Ingredients: Begin by placing all the measured ingredients into a mixing bowl. Using a whisk or a fork, blend them thoroughly until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency. The mayonnaise serves as the base, while the garlic adds a punch of flavor, the soy sauce contributes depth, and the wasabi introduces a delightful kick.

Chill for Flavor Development: Although this sauce can be enjoyed immediately, for the best results, transfer it to an airtight container and allow it to chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour, or ideally overnight. This resting period lets the flavors meld beautifully, enhancing the overall taste.

Storage: Your homemade fish tip sauce can be stored in the refrigerator and is best consumed within a week. Ensure it’s kept in an airtight container to maintain its freshness.

Serving Suggestions: This sauce pairs wonderfully with grilled white fish, such as tilapia, or salmon, bringing out their natural flavors. Simply spoon a dollop onto your plate or serve it in a small container for dipping. It’s a versatile condiment that also works well with light seafood dishes or as a unique spread on sandwiches.

Enjoy the Extra Flavor: Drizzle, dip, or spread this sauce as you like; its balance of savory, sweet, and slightly spicy notes will elevate your meals, adding that extra layer of flavor to your dining experience.
