Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons Tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
- 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)
- 2 teaspoons Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Ginger (freshly grated)
- 1 clove Garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 teaspoon Toasted sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, combine the tamari, rice vinegar, and honey (or maple syrup if making the recipe vegan). Stir well until the honey or syrup fully dissolves.
Add the sesame oil, freshly grated ginger, and minced garlic to the bowl. Whisk together to combine evenly.
Stir in the water to adjust the consistency of the sauce. Add more water if needed to achieve your desired thickness.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. If you prefer a sweeter sauce, add a little more honey or maple syrup. For extra tang, add a splash of rice vinegar.
Transfer the sauce to a serving dish or drizzle over sushi, poke bowls, or use as a dip for rolls.
Optionally, sprinkle toasted sesame seeds over the sauce for added texture and presentation.
