Notes

  • Olive Oil: This is when you break out the good stuff. Or, you can use sesame oil instead to add even more sesame flavor!
  • Garlic Powder:  You can use fresh garlic minced (1 - 2 teaspoons) in place of garlic powder, but just be sure to ensure that it does not burn, which it can do quickly. 
  • Seasoned Rice Wine Vinegar: The acidity and sweetness adds to this side. You can also use Mirin.
