Tamari sauce is probably the sauce you'll see most used with sushi. Best known as the Japanese version of soy sauce, but is vastly different from its Chinese analog.

EEL SAUCE (NITSUME) If your friends have been eating sushi for a while now and have fallen in love with the black sushi sauce, then surprise them by telling them you’ve made a homemade version of it! TONKATSU SAUCE Much like the 2 previous sauces, this too is a tastier and thicker version of soy sauce which can also serve as a marinade or be drizzled over the fish toppings on your nigiri or uramaki rolls. PONZU SAUCE NIKIRI SAUCE (SWEET SOY SAUCE) The nikiri soy-based sauce may not be everyone’s favorite sushi sauce, but it certainly deserves a mention here. It is almost exclusively used for nigiri toppings and although made from soybeans, this sushi sauce has a rather light brown color and sweet taste.
