Method

  1. Peel and finely grate the fresh ginger, then mince the garlic as finely as possible.

  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, and water until well combined.

  3. Stir in the grated ginger and minced garlic.

  4. Let the sauce rest for 5 minutes so the flavors can infuse.

  5. Taste and adjust the balance by adding a splash of water if you prefer a milder flavor.

  6. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with thinly sliced green onions.

  7. Serve as a dipping sauce, salad dressing, or marinade for tuna, salmon, chicken, shrimp, tofu, or stir-fried vegetables.

Chef's Tip

For extra depth, add a teaspoon of rice vinegar and a squeeze of fresh lime juice. If you're using the sauce as a marinade, allow seafood or chicken to marinate for 15–30 minutes to absorb the fresh ginger and garlic flavors without becoming overly salty.
