[Sca-cooks] Re: OOP -- need recipe for dipping sauce

[Louise Smithson]

I lived with a chinese lady a while back and her dipping sauce was
soy sauce
Shaoxing vinegar (a dark chinese/sweet vinegar)
A dash or so of dark sesame oil
shredded ginger
finely chopped scallions.
Mix to taste and serve (sorry I can't be more accurate than that, but I make it by add some taste, adjust, taste, adjust)
Of course if you like it hot you can add chilli oil as well as sesame oil, or some dried chillies

I just got a low-fat recipe for "fried dumplings" like those served at
Chinese restaurants.  But my favorite part of the dumpling experience is the
dipping sauce, and I don't know how to make that.  And since I'm confident
that, on this list, there is somebody with the answer to almost any
question... help?
