How to Make Fresh Ginger Seafood Sauce

  1. Using a fine grater, grate 1/4 cup of fresh ginger.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the grated ginger, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup, 1 teaspoon minced garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or more, to taste).
  3. Refrigerate the sauce for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. The longer it sits, the more intense the ginger flavor will become.
  4. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more ginger for a stronger kick, honey/maple syrup for sweetness, or red pepper flakes for extra heat.
  5. Serve chilled over grilled shrimp, pan-fried fish, steamed vegetables, or use as a marinade for your favorite seafood.
