GINGER SAUCE

QUICK GINGER SAUCE



Quick Ginger Sauce image

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 tablespoons dark hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons pineapple juice
2 teaspoons grated peeled fresh ginger
1 teaspoon soy sauce
Fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, stir together the hoisin sauce, pineapple juice, ginger, and soy sauce; season with pepper.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ginger: Use fresh ginger for the best flavor. Look for ginger that is plump and has smooth, unblemished skin.
  • Peel the ginger properly: Use a spoon to scrape off the skin of the ginger. This will help you avoid wasting any of the ginger's flavorful flesh.
  • Use a microplane grater: A microplane grater is the best tool for grating ginger. It will produce fine, evenly grated ginger that will dissolve easily into the sauce.
  • Toast the sesame seeds: Toasting the sesame seeds will bring out their nutty flavor and make them more aromatic.
  • Use a good quality soy sauce: The soy sauce is one of the main ingredients in the sauce, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a soy sauce that is naturally brewed and has a deep, rich flavor.
  • Taste the sauce as you go: The amount of ginger, soy sauce, and honey that you need will vary depending on your personal preferences. Taste the sauce as you go and adjust the ingredients until you reach the desired flavor.

Conclusion:

This quick ginger sauce is a versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It's perfect for drizzling over grilled chicken or fish, stir-fries, or noodles. It can also be used as a dipping sauce for spring rolls or dumplings. With its sweet, tangy, and spicy flavor, this sauce is sure to become a favorite in your kitchen.
