Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh ginger root, peeled
  • 1/3 cup tamari
  • 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • zest and juice of one lemon
  • 2 teaspoons brown sugar

Method
 

  1. Place yellow onion, fresh ginger root, tamari, rice vinegar, lemon zest, and brown sugar into a blender.
  2. Blend until the sauce is completely smooth and uniform.
  3. Pour the sauce into a sealed jar for storage.
  4. Refrigerate for up to 5 days. This recipe yields approximately 3/4 cup of ginger sauce.

Notes

- For the most authentic flavor, use tamari instead of regular soy sauce; it offers a richer, less salty depth. - Adjust the ginger amount to your preference – I love a strong ginger kick, so I often add a little extra. - If the sauce seems too thick, add a tiny splash of water or more lemon juice to reach your desired consistency. - Storage tip: Keep this ginger sauce refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 5 days for optimal freshness.
