this condiment-style sauce, adapted from bruce cost's asian ingredients, brings the flavor of toasted sesame seeds to batter-fried foods or steamed dumplings.
2 tablespoons sesame paste from a jar
(or creamy peanut butter in a pinch)
2 tablespoons mirin (japanese rice wine) or dry sherry
1 tablespoon white rice vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 to 1/3 cup chicken broth
2 teaspoons finely chopped scallions
in a saucepan, combine the sesame paste, mirin, vinegar, salt, pepper and broth. mix vigorously. bring to a boil, reduce heat and stir 1 to 2 minutes until thickened. stir in scallions.
good with grilled meats or tofu and rice.
