Gyoza Sauce

DangerBun's Note:

The addictive Gyoza (dumpling) sauce is usually sold premade in bottles at the Asian food store. We love it so much, and go through it so quickly, that I had to find a recipe to make at home. This is a very basic recipe, so feel free to adjust amounts to your taste, or add ingredients like garlic, ginger, wasabi & green onions. If the sauce has too much "bite" from the vinegar, add a pinch of sugar. This is also good with a splash of hot chili oil, if you're so inclined. Enjoy!

This is a great recipe! I didn't have any gyoza sauce, so my son kept asking me for it. So I had to find a recipe to make it from scratch. I finally found it! Love, love, love the flavor and I think it tastes better than the bottle. My son loved it! I just didn't add the hot sauce and still came up nice. Next time I might add a little bit of ground ginger. Thank you for sharing!
