Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and lemon juice until pale and slightly frothy. (Approximately 1 minute)

02

Step

Begin adding the vegetable oil, drop by drop, while continuously whisking with a wooden spoon or a sturdy whisk. Ensure each drop is fully incorporated before adding the next, creating a stable emulsion. (Approximately 5-7 minutes)

03

Step

As the sauce begins to thicken and emulsify, gradually increase the stream of oil, maintaining a steady whisking motion. Continue until all the oil has been incorporated and the sauce is thick, glossy, and smooth. (Approximately 3-5 minutes)

04

Step

Gently fold in the white miso paste, grated citrus zest, and white pepper until evenly distributed. (Approximately 1 minute)

05

Step

Season with sea salt to taste, adjusting as needed to achieve the perfect balance of flavors. (Approximately 30 seconds)

06

Step

Transfer the Japanese Egg Yolk Sauce to a squeeze bottle or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. (Approximately 30 minutes cooling time)

For the best results, use high-quality, fresh ingredients.
Ensure the egg yolks are at room temperature for optimal emulsification.
Whisking with patience and persistence is key to achieving a smooth, stable sauce.
Adjust the amount of miso paste and citrus zest to suit your personal preferences.
This sauce is best consumed within 3-5 days, stored in the refrigerator.
