What’s in Gyoza Sauce?

Close up on gyoza sauce in a Japanese ramekin.

I like to make my gyoza dipping sauce with soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, sriracha sauce, and garlic powder. If you don’t like spicy food, you can leave out the sriracha sauce but I think it adds a nice kick.

Many people use fresh minced garlic instead of garlic powder and also add diced green onions. While I do enjoy this variation of sauce in dumpling bowls, I prefer my version as a dipping sauce for gyozas as I don’t like getting a bite with too many chunks of garlic or green onions.

How to Make Gyoza Sauce

An individual serving of gyoza sauce contains 1 Tbsp. of soy sauce, 1 tsp. of rice vinegar, 1 tsp. of sesame oil, 1/4 tsp. of sriracha sauce, and 1/4 tsp. of garlic powder.

1. Combine all ingredients to a mixing bowl and stir until combined.

Mix ingredients into gyoza sauce and stir to combine.

2. Serve at room temperature and enjoy!
