Japanese Sesame Sauce (goma Dare)

1 ½ tablespoons white sesame seeds, or pre-toasted ((notes 1))

2 tablespoons unseasoned rice wine vinegar ((notes 1))

1 ½ tablespoon soy sauce ((notes 1))

1 tablespoon roasted sesame oil ((notes 1))

1 tablespoon neutral flavoured vegetable oil ((notes 1))

3 teaspoons brown sugar

2 teaspoons finely minced ginger

If they aren’t already, toast the sesame seeds until golden in a dry pan over medium heat, shaking the pan often. Once golden they should smell nutty and a bit like popcorn
Using a spice grinder, mini food processor or mortar and pestle, grind the toasted sesame seeds to a fine powder.
Add the sesame seed powder to a jar with the remaining ingredients and shake well to combine. You can also just mix vigorously in a small bowl or jug.
It’s ready to use. You can add more toasted sesame seed powder to make the consistency thicker and it will also make it nuttier and less tangy.
