About Hibachi Mustard Sauce
If you have ever been to Benihana’s Japanese Steakhouse, you know about the Hibachi-Style Mustard Sauce they serve on the side with all their dishes. Also known as Magic Mustard Sauce, Japanese Mustard Sauce, or Cream Sauce, Benihana’s Copycat Hibachi Dipping Sauce is really addictive. Once you have a taste of it, you will want to serve it with everything. After multiple trials, I cracked the recipe to make this classic Hibachi Steakhouse Mustard Sauce at home, and the taste of my homemade sauce was pretty close to the one served at the restaurant. This creamy dipping sauce, made in just 15 minutes using six simple ingredients, is a must-make if you plan a hibachi-style home dinner. This vegetarian recipe can also be made vegan and gluten-free.
Serving Suggestions
This Magic Mustard Sauce is a versatile sauce that tastes good with almost everything. My favorites to serve it with are Hibachi Steak, Hibachi Shrimp, Hibachi Chicken, Hibachi Fried Rice, Hibachi Vegetables, and Hibachi Noodles. Ground Mustard Powder – Ground yellow mustard seeds give this dipping sauce a unique taste. You can make your dry mustard powder by grinding yellow mustard seeds in a grinder. Do not use brown mustard seeds to make the powder, as they are slightly bitter. Soy Sauce – Dark soy sauce adds an umami flavor! Replace it with coconut aminos or tamari to make it gluten-free. Garlic Powder – Just a little adds so much flavor. Do not skip this one. Heavy Cream – It makes the base of the sauce. Replace dairy cream with cashew cream for a vegan sauce. You can add a little fish sauce for a nice umami taste. You can add a little lemon juice to the recipe for a tangy taste. Remove the pan from the heat and set it aside. Do not overcook the cream; otherwise, it may curdle. Please bring it to room temperature before serving. You can try it with your other favorite chicken and steak recipes. This fabulous dipping sauce pairs very well with Teppanyaki-style meats.
Storage Suggestions
Japanese Mustard Sauce will last up to 7 days in an airtight container stored in the fridge, but it is better to consume it within three days. I do not recommend freezing this sauce, as it contains heavy cream. It might curdle when thawed.
