Ponzu Sauce
Posted On 29 May 2023
After finding a recipe on a completely unusable site — thanks to a million ads and a lot of bullshit — I tried it and didn’t like it. So I tweaked things a bit and made it my own.
Ponzu Sauce
A citrusy, salty, acid — great as a marinade or a dipping sauce.
Ingredients
- 227 grams soy sauce, reduced sodium if you'd like (1 cup)
- 1 large orange zested and juiced (~6 tablespoons orange juice)
- 2 lemons zested, then juiced
- 100 grams Mirin (~6 tablespoons)
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (or more for a bit more kick)
- 40 grams bonito flakes (~1/4 cup)
- 1 piece kombu (dried kelp)
Instructions
- Mix all ingredients together in a bowl with a cover.
- Let sit in the refrigerator overnight.
- Strain out the solid bits and keep the liquid. Keep refrigerated.
