Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
- 0.25 cup Pineapple juice
- 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon Water
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the tamari, pineapple juice, rice vinegar, honey (or maple syrup), sesame oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic over medium heat.
Stir the mixture constantly until it begins to heat through and the honey (if used) dissolves completely.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water until smooth to create a slurry.
Gradually add the slurry to the saucepan while stirring to avoid lumps. Continue stirring until the mixture thickens slightly, about 2-3 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the dressing cool to room temperature.
Transfer the dressing to a jar or bottle for storage. Use immediately or refrigerate for up to one week.
Shake or stir before using if the dressing separates during storage.
