This was the dipping sauce my grandmother would make for her pan-fried pot stickers. To this day, the flavors remind me of her cooking. It's one of those sauces that is so simple yet perfect. I've made it many times in my professional career, and it constantly amazes and bewilders all the chefs who have tried it. Now it's yours to pass on and impress with.
Ingredients
Instructions
Place the peppers, garlic, both sugars and salt in a food processor and pulse until roughly chopped. Transfer the mixture to a clean container, cover and let sit at room temperature. A mason jar with a loosely fitting lid or a clean bowl with plastic wrap will work.
Fermentation should begin in about 2 days. When bubbles begin to form, stir your "mash" once or twice a day to combine and help it settle. Continue until the mixture stops bubbling, about 6 to 8 days.
Transfer the mash to a blender, add the vinegar, and puree until very smooth. Strain the sauce
through a fine-mesh sieve. Add the xanthan gum and puree again until smooth and thick. Store your sauce in squeeze bottles in the fridge for up to 3 months!
