In a small bowl, whisk together the arrowroot powder (or cornstarch) and water until it forms a smooth slurry. Set aside.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the coconut aminos, rice vinegar, honey (or maple syrup), minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, and black pepper.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to ensure the ingredients are well combined.
Slowly whisk in the arrowroot slurry, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
Continue cooking and stirring for 1-2 minutes, or until the dressing thickens to your desired consistency.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the dressing cool to room temperature before using.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Shake well before use.
