Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes. Stir well to mix all the ingredients.

  2. Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to blend together.

  3. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water until smooth. This will act as a thickening agent for the sauce.

  4. Slowly pour the cornstarch mixture into the saucepan while stirring continuously. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.

  5. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in sesame oil for that final touch of flavor.

  6. Your Chinese Red Sauce is now ready to be used! Pour it over your favorite stir-fry or noodles, or use it as a dipping sauce for dumplings. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
