Trader Joe’s Dynamite Sauce was inspired by show-stopping condiments that become the stars of meals due to the way they enhance the dish as a whole. In particular, the sauce is said to take cues from the "[spicy, creamy condiments of sushi bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cooking-dipping-sauce) and izakaya [shops]" and [Trader Joe's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trader-joes-ponzu-sauce) describes it as a "one-sauce-fits-all solution" that can be added to everything from tofu fries and veggie burgers to fish tacos.

The versatile condiment is made with a base of [tangy, seasoned mayonnaise](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miso-mayo) that's enhanced with spicy sriracha, sesame oil, soy sauce, brown sugar and sesame seeds, which is said to create a flavor experience that's simultaneously rich, sweet, creamy, umami and even a little bit zesty.
