Ponzu Sauce
Balanced with sweet, salty, and citrusy flavor and tons of umami, this Homemade Ponzu Sauce recipe is a winner on so many dishes!
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1/2 cup mirin
- 1/2 cup light soy sauce
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons white Chinese cooking wine or sake
- 2 large dried shiitake mushrooms
Instructions
- Combine the vinegar, mirin, soy sauce, lime juice, lemon juice, wine or sake and dried mushrooms in a small saucepan.
- Bring to a simmer over low heat. Continue to simmer for 15 minutes, making sure the mushrooms are submerged so they can steep.
- Turn off heat and allow the sauce to sit for an additional 15 minutes.
- Pour the sauce through a fine mesh sieve, discarding solids. You can just pluck out the mushrooms, but sometimes little bits fall off and you'll likely not want to bite into a little flavor bomb of steeped dried mushroom.
- Use in a recipe or as a dipping sauce.
