This sesame soy sauce blends soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, rice vinegar, and a hint of sugar into a glossy, umami-rich condiment. It comes together in minutes with no cooking required, and works equally well as a dipping sauce for dumplings, a drizzle over noodles, or a marinade base for grilled meats and vegetables.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
  • 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 scallion, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Method

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, rice vinegar, and sugar until the sugar dissolves.

  2. Stir in the toasted sesame seeds, minced garlic, grated ginger, sliced scallion, and red pepper flakes.

  3. Let the sauce sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving.

  4. Transfer to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate until ready to use, whisking again before serving.
