Honey Ginger Soy Dressing

Author: Flavelo
Sauces and Gravies Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Dishes
The 'Holy Trinity' of Asian flavor profiles: ginger, garlic, soy sauce. Complemented by honey's sweetness and vinegar's tang. This sauce isn't an emulsion but a dressing where ingredients mingle freely. Sesame oil acts as a spice here, not a cooking fat, so add it at the end to preserve its aroma.

Instructions

1 ✓

Peel and finely grate the ginger and garlic.

Tip: Grating cuts through the ginger fibers so you don't get stringy bits in the sauce.
2 ✓

In a bowl, mix the honey with soy sauce and rice vinegar until the honey dissolves.

Tip: Cold honey dissolves slowly; be patient or microwave gently for a few seconds.
3 ✓

Stir in the grated ginger, garlic, and red pepper flakes.

Tip: These provide the body and texture of the sauce.
4 ✓

Finally, stir in the sesame oil.

Tip: Toasted sesame oil is intense but volatile. Don't heat it unnecessarily.
5 ✓

Always stir before using as the honey tends to settle at the bottom.

Tip: Excellent as a marinade too!

Recipe FAQ

I don't have rice vinegar.
Use apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar; they are the closest substitutes.

Weeks in the fridge! Both honey and soy sauce act as preservatives.
