Equipment

  • Blender or Food Processor
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients
  

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup yellow onion, cut into rough chunks About half of a small onion
  • 1/4 cup fresh ginger root, peeled and diced
  • 1/4 cup standard soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
  • 2 tbsp filtered water
  • 1 tbsp white granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice From about half a lemon

Instructions

  • Place the chunked onion, diced ginger, soy sauce, white vinegar, water, sugar, and lemon juice into the pitcher of a high-speed blender or food processor.
  • Process the mixture on high speed until it reaches a completely smooth and uniform consistency. If necessary, pause to scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula.
  • Transfer the blended liquid into a sealable container. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes prior to serving to allow the bold flavors to mellow and harmonize.

Notes

Store any leftover dipping sauce in an airtight jar in the refrigerator for up to a week. If you find the fresh onion and ginger flavors too pungent initially, resting the sauce in the fridge will significantly soften and balance the taste over time.
