Ingredients
- ¼ cup orange juice (about 2 small oranges)
- ¼ cup rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon mellow miso or white miso
- 1 tablespoon date syrup or maple syrup, or agave
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 2 teaspoons sesame seeds optional
- 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper optional
Instructions
- Combine the orange juice, rice vinegar, miso, date syrup, garlic, and ginger in a medium bowl.
- Whisk well until fully incorporated.
Notes
Fresh Orange Juice: To squeeze an orange by hand, roll it on the counter to loosen the juice. Cut the orange into eight slices instead of just two halves. It is much easier to squeeze the smaller pieces and they will yield more juice than a large piece.
Balance the Flavors: Taste and adjust sweetness, acidity, or saltiness by tweaking the date syrup, vinegar, or miso.
Customize the Heat: Add crushed red pepper for a kick or keep it mild based on your preference.
Substitutes: 1. Use lemon or lime juice to taste instead of orange juice. Adjust the date or maple syrup to taste. 2. Add 1 teaspoon garlic powder or ginger powder instead of fresh garlic or ginger.
