Ginger scallion sauce

• servings: 16 servings
• active time: 5 minutes
• total time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

6 bulb scallion (diced, a little over 2 cups diced scallion)

1 oz ginger root (grated, about 1.5 tbsp grated ginger)

2 tbsp toasted sesame oil

1 tsp coarse sea salt (or to taste)

½ tsp ground white pepper

½ tsp Sichuan peppercorn powder (optional)

½ cup avocado oil (or any neutral-flavored oil)

Directions

Prepare scallions and ginger

Prep the aromatics: Dice the scallions into small rounds and grate the peeled ginger. Place both into a medium heat-proof bowl, such as a ceramic or oven-safe bowl.

Add seasonings to the bowl

Add seasonings: Add the sesame oil, salt, white pepper, and Sichuan peppercorn powder (if using) to the bowl with the aromatics.

Heat up the oil

Heat the oil: In a small, heavy-bottomed saucepan, add the avocado oil. Heat it over medium-low heat, uncovered, for about 7–8 minutes, until the oil simmers. To check if the oil is ready, insert a dry chopstick into the oil—if small bubbles form around it, the oil is hot enough.

Pour hot oil over

Activate the sauce: Slowly and carefully pour the hot oil over the scallions and ginger in the bowl. The mixture will sizzle immediately. Stir with a spoon to combine, and let the scallions soften for a few minutes.

How to store the sauce

Storage: Once the sauce has cooled to room temperature, transfer it to an airtight glass container. Store in the fridge for up to 1 month, but for the freshest flavor, use it within the first 2 weeks.
