11 Servings
Ingredients
- 1 small onion chopped
- 2 tablespoons freshly grated ginger
- 2 –3 cloves of garlic chopped
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon dark soy sauce or substitute regular soy sauce
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
Prepare the Ingredients
- Begin by chopping the onion and garlic and grating the fresh ginger. Measure all remaining ingredients to streamline the process.
Combine Ingredients in a Blender
- Place the chopped onion, grated ginger, garlic, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, lemon juice, honey, dark soy sauce, and ground black pepper into a blender or food processor.
Blend to Desired Consistency
- Pulse the ingredients until the mixture reaches your preferred consistency. For a smoother sauce, blend longer; for a chunkier texture, pulse briefly.
Adjust Seasoning
- Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning if necessary. For additional saltiness, add a small amount of soy sauce. If the sauce is too tangy, balance it with an extra drizzle of honey.
Let the Sauce Rest
- Transfer the blended sauce to a container with a tight-fitting lid. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. For best results, let the sauce chill overnight.
