-Japanese Steakhouse White Sauce

One of our favorite restaurants is Kobi Japanese Steak House in Orlando, FL.
Anytime we are in the area, we make sure we eat there.

I have been trying for a long time to make the "white sauce" that they serve.
Dave usually asks them to leave the whole container with him, and he pours it on everything.
I think I finally have found a recipe on www.food.com that's pretty close.

** Before you start this recipe, please know that you MUST refrigerate it overnight for it to taste right. **

For the fried rice, I use a package of KIKKOMAN seasoning mix, following the directions on the package.
With the fried rice, you MUST cook the rice and let it cool before you fry it.

For the shrimp and vegetables, I use a package of KIKKOMAN stir-fry seasoning mix,
following the directions on the package.
I get already cooked shrimp, fresh mushrooms, fresh broccoli, and zucchini squash.
For the oil, I use Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

Hope you enjoy!!!
