Ginger Scallion Sauce Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large scallions green onions, thinly sliced (including white parts)
  • 1/2 cup fresh ginger peeled and finely minced
  • 3/4 cup neutral oil e.g., grapeseed, canola, or vegetable oil
  • 3/4 to 1 teaspoon salt adjust to taste
  • 1 teaspoon light soy sauce or tamari for a gluten-free option
  • 1/2 teaspoon sherry vinegar optional for tanginess

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Ingredients:
  • Finely mince the ginger. Use a chef’s knife for bold flavor or a grater for a milder taste.
  • Thinly slice the scallions.
  • Combine Ingredients:
  • Place the ginger and scallions in a heatproof bowl.
  • Add salt, soy sauce, and sherry vinegar. Mix well.
  • Heat the Oil:
  • In a small saucepan, heat the oil over medium-high heat for about 3-4 minutes. Test by adding a piece of scallion to see if it sizzles.
  • Pour Hot Oil Over Mixture:
  • Carefully pour the sizzling hot oil over the ginger and scallion mixture. Stir immediately to combine and release the aroma.
  • Cool and Store:
  • Let the mixture cool completely before transferring it to a jar. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
