  1. I have been making Ginger Scallion sauce for many years but not with miso or sesame seed oil. Both made a huge difference in the flavor profile. I am looking forward to trying it with many different things – raw fish (to make poke), cold chicken, pasta, pizza, dipping sauce for meat in hot pot …
    Next I want to try the Miso Pesto!

  2. The ginger scallion sauce is so good! Not only is it delicious and easy to make, but the color is incredible and vibrant. I think you can put it on anything. Having a food processor was very useful and made the whole process very quick. I think I ended up with more than half a cup, and for that I am very grateful! If you like ginger, you should make this recipe. I’m looking forward to making this again!

  3. This is amazing! It’s so easy to make with a food processor. I used sunflower oil and miso. I don’t have a scale and ended up making a large batch, for which I am very thankful! This is a classic flavor profile – so easy and delicious and you can put it on anything.
