What it is
Yummi Spicy Mayo is a creamy condiment with a spicy kick, often found in sushi and other Asian-inspired dishes. It's typically made from mayonnaise as a base, blended with chili sauce or paste, and sometimes other seasonings like garlic or sugar.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use Yummi Spicy Mayo to add a rich, creamy texture and a savory, spicy flavor to foods. It's a popular topping for sushi rolls, rice bowls, and as a dipping sauce for appetizers.
Health notes
Yummi Spicy Mayo is a food product and does not have a specific regulatory status as an ingredient itself. Its components, such as mayonnaise (egg, oil, vinegar) and chili sauce (peppers, vinegar, salt, spices), are generally recognized as safe by the FDA when used as intended. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated many individual ingredients commonly found in spicy mayo, such as vinegar and various spices. Evidence regarding the health effects of consuming spicy foods or mayonnaise at typical levels is mixed, with some studies suggesting potential benefits and others indicating possible drawbacks related to sodium or fat intake.
Allergen info
Yummi Spicy Mayo may contain egg, which is one of the FDA's major allergens, if made with traditional mayonnaise. It is not a source of gluten.
