Scallion Dipping Sauce
A bright, umami-rich accompaniment for dumplings or noodles
Why This Recipe Works
This balanced dipping sauce relies on the sweetness of mirin and the sharpness of rice vinegar. It comes together in minutes and is best used within a few hours of mixing while the scallions are still crisp.
Instructions
Whisk the soy sauce, rice vinegar, mirin, water, scallion, chili oil, and sesame oil together in a small bowl until the oils are well distributed and the liquid is unified.
Serve immediately, or store in the refrigerator to let the flavors meld slightly.
