Ginger Sauce (Japanese Steakhouse Copycat)
Report
Japanese Steakhouse copycat ginger sauce is so quick and easy to make, you’ll need 6 ingredients and under 5 minutes to make it. This popular sauce that you eat at Benihana’s Japanese restaurants is a great dipping sauce for hibachi shrimp, steaks, chicken, veggies, and rice too. You can it as dipping sauce or as a marinade for grilling meat and veggies.

Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons ginger peeled and chopped roughly
- 1 medium yellow onion roughly chopped
- ½ big lemon zest and juice
- ¼ cup rice vinegar
- ¾ cup soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
Instructions
- Using a spoon peel the thin brown skin off the ginger root and roughly chop it. Cut onion into quarters.
- Add ginger and onion to a food processor and pulse it for a few seconds. This step is optional. Though you can pulse all ingredients together at once, I prefer to pulse onion and ginger first before I add in the liquids.
- Add rice vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, zest of lemon, and freshly squeezed lemon juice to the processor. Pulse until desired consistency is reached. This sauce can be chunky as you like. Do not make it very smooth. It’s best with a chunky texture.
- Taste the sauce and adjust it to your preference. If it’s too salty for your palate, squeeze a little more fresh lemon juice into it. If you prefer it a tad sweeter, add ½ teaspoon more brown sugar.
