Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Dragon Sauce
  1. Gather all your ingredients—tahini or nut butter, soy sauce or tamari, maple syrup, minced garlic, grated ginger, and vinegar.
  2. In your blender or food processor, add the tahini (or nut butter), soy sauce (or tamari), and maple syrup. Then toss in the minced garlic, freshly grated ginger, and vinegar. Blend on medium speed for about 30 seconds.
  3. Check the consistency of your sauce. If it’s too thick, gradually add water or lemon juice until you achieve your desired creaminess.
  4. Taste your Dragon Sauce to ensure it hits all the right notes. Adjust sweetness or saltiness as desired.
  5. Transfer it to an airtight glass jar. Seal it tightly and refrigerate for up to 7 days.
  6. Use your Dragon Sauce as a dressing, dip, or drizzle it over your meals.
