YSK Eel Sauce does not contain Eel
Why YSK: As an American who is not very adventurous in my diet I have only been to a Sushi restaurant maybe 12-15 times. I have graduated to raw fish but had avoided so many rolls on menus because I was not ready to try anything called “eel sauce.” Last night I finally bit the bullet only to find out that it’s just a sweet soy based sauce with no eel in it at all. Ended up trying actual eel just so I could take advantage of gastronomical courage, would recommend!
And before folks act like most people know this, not everyone grew up with Sushi. I am \~30 and grew up in a city with over half a million people. I didn’t know anyone who had even had sushi until I was in maybe middle school. And most were getting it from the grocery store counter.
