Ingredients
To make the sesame-ginger vinaigrette:
- ⅓ cup Rice vinegar
- ½ cup Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Toasted sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger minced
- 3 teaspoons Soy sauce
- 3 teaspoons Honey
- 3 Peeled and finely minced Garlic cloves
For the sauce:
- ⅓ cup Sesame-ginger vinaigrette
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Sweet ginger soy sauce
- 1 ½ tablespoons Sriracha chili paste
- 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
- Juice from one lime
- ½ teaspoon Red pepper flakes
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Making the sesame-ginger vinaigrette begins with peeling and finely chopping fresh garlic and ginger. Once all the ingredients for the sesame-ginger vinaigrette are combined, place them all in a blender and blend until smooth.
- Allow the vinaigrette to sit for 1-2 hours in an airtight container.
- After that, make the sauce by chopping the cilantro. Next, add the lime juice, the sesame-ginger vinaigrette, the honey, the sweet ginger soy sauce, the Sriracha chili paste, the sesame oil, the fresh cilantro, and the red pepper flakes to the blender, and blend for two to three minutes until completely emulsified.
- If necessary, adjust any of the ingredients in your sauce.
- Continue blending for another 30 seconds, seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Let the sauce sit in an airtight container in the fridge for four to eight hours so the flavors can blend for that authentic Pokework's Classic sauce taste.
- Before serving, let the sauce warm up to room temperature.
Notes
- Adjust ingredient quantities based on personal taste preferences.
- Add extra honey for a sweeter profile or increase sriracha for a spicier kick.
- Allow the sauce to sit before serving to intensify and meld the flavors.
