Gyoza Sauce
Description
Gyoza Sauce is made simply by whisking together rice vinegar and soy sauce as a tangy-salty base, then adding sesame oil for nuttiness and honey for gentle sweetness. These ingredients form a harmonious balance that suits a variety of pan-fried or steamed dumplings.
Optionally, adding dried red chili flakes introduces a subtle spicy note to the sauce. The sauce can be prepared in small or larger batches depending on need, and tastes should be adjusted according to preference by increasing sweetness, acidity, saltiness, or heat.
When storing, place the sauce in a clean, sanitized jar with a tight lid to preserve freshness and prevent contamination. Freshly minced ginger or garlic can be added as variations but are not included in the base recipe.

- ¼ cup rice vinegar 60ml
- ¼ cup soy sauce 60ml
- ½ teaspoon sesame oil
