Ginger Scallion Sauce Recipe

This ginger scallion sauce recipe makes the much-copied Momofuku homage to a New York restaurant's take on the Chinese classic. Currently making a comeback, chef David Chang and food writer Francis Lam popularised ginger scallion sauce and ginger scallion noodles over a decade ago. I've been making these ever since with tweaks. Try this and you'll understand why. They're addictive.
Original recipe by David Chang (Momofuku).

Equipment

Ingredients

  • 150 g scallions white and green parts mixed
  • 60 g fresh ginger finely chopped or minced
  • ¼ cup grapeseed oil or any neutral oil
  • 1 ½ tsp Light Soy Sauce
  • ¾ tsp Sherry Vinegar
  • ¾ tsp salt

Instructions

  • Mix together the scallions, ginger, oil, soy, vinegar, and salt in a bowl.
  • Taste and check for seasoning, adding more if needed.
  • Though it’s best after 15 or 20 minutes of sitting, ginger scallion sauce is good from the minute it’s stirred together up to a day or two in the fridge.
  • Add to noodles and add your protein of choice, we like this with seafood, pork or duck.
  • Add your favourite condiments.
