Sushi sauce, often referred to as eel sauce or unagi sauce, is a thick, glossy condiment commonly used in Japanese cuisine. It is made from a blend of soy sauce, sugar, and mirin, a type of sweet rice wine, with occasional additions of sake for extra depth. This sauce delivers a savory, sweet, and slightly smoky flavor, enhancing dishes like sushi rolls, grilled eel, or rice bowls. While sushi sauce is a flavorful addition, its high sugar and sodium content should be consumed in moderation, especially for those watching their salt or caloric intake. Despite this, the natural ingredients, including soy sauce, contain small amounts of protein and essential minerals like potassium. Sushi sauce is versatile and provides a satisfying umami profile in Japanese-inspired dishes, but balancing it with fresh, whole foods can make it a part of a healthier meal.
