Chile Vinegar Dipping Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• finely chop the chili's and garlic.
• Add the sugar, chili's and vinegar to a pan and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Add the garlic and simmer for a further fifteen minutes until the mixture becomes thickened and syrupy.
• Transfer to a sterilised jar and allow to cool. This can be kept in the fridge for up to a month. (Only lasts a week in our house though!).

Steps:

• Season oysters with salt and pepper on both sides. Place cornmeal in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Dredge each oyster into the cornmeal and tap off any excess.
• Heat 1 inch of oil in a large cast iron skillet until smoking. Fry oysters in batches until golden brown on both sides, about 1 minutes on each side.
• Serve with the Red Chile Vinegar-Black Pepper Dipping Sauce on the side.
• Bring the vinegar to a boil in medium non-reactive saucepan. Add the chilies, turn off the heat and let steep for 1 hour. Strain into a clean saucepan and bring to a simmer. Remove from the heat and whisk in the honey and pepper and season with salt, to taste. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Sterilize jar and lid:
• Wash jar, lid, and screw band in hot soapy water, then rinse well. Dry screw band. Put empty jar on a rack in a boiling-water canner or a deep 5- to 6-quart pot and add enough hot water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil, covered, then boil 10 minutes. Remove canner from heat, leaving jar in water. Heat lid in water to cover by 2 inches in a small saucepan until thermometer registers 180°F (do not let boil). Remove from heat. Keep jar and lid submerged in hot water, covered, until ready to use.
• Make chile vinegar:
• Carefully remove jar and lid with tongs, then drain jar upside down on a clean kitchen towel and dry lid.
• Pack chiles into jar. Bring vinegar to a boil in small saucepan, then remove from heat and pour over chiles. Cool to room temperature. Wipe off rim of jar with a dampened clean kitchen towel, then top with lid and firmly screw on screw band. Chill sealed jar 2 weeks.
• Make dipping sauce:
• Bring water and sugar to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring until sugar is dissolved, then stir in red-pepper flakes (if using), 2 tablespoons chile vinegar, and salt to taste. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.

Steps:

• Whisk together ingredients. Sauce can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days; before serving, bring to room temperature and pour into individual dipping bowls.

Steps:

• Place garlic, ginger and chile flakes in a medium bowl. Add vinegar, and stir to combine. Set aside for 5 minutes to allow flavors to come together.
• Add soy sauce, water, oil, yuzu or lemon juice and scallions. Whisk thoroughly to combine.
