How to Make Apricot Dipping Sauce

  1. Combine apricot preserves, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, and ginger in a small saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently.
  3. Reduce heat to low and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has slightly thickened and the flavors have melded.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in sesame oil.
  5. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more honey for sweetness or rice vinegar for tanginess.
  6. Let the sauce cool slightly before serving with your favorite appetizers.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
