This bold, savory sauce comes together in minutes with fresh ginger and garlic simmered alongside rice vinegar, a touch of maple syrup, and toasted sesame oil for that deep, nutty aroma. A quick cornstarch slurry gives it a glossy, spoon-coating thickness that clings beautifully to noodles, rice, or a hot pan of vegetables. Add red pepper flakes if you want a little heat, or leave them out for a milder, sweeter finish. It's the kind of versatile sauce you'll want to keep a jar of in the fridge for busy weeknights. This one is a great fit for a gluten free kitchen, so you can drizzle it over your favorite stir fry without a second thought.
