Here’s the other sauce to go with Momofuku’s Bo Ssam, and it’s a heady brew of ginger and scallion.
Momofuku’s Ginger Scallion Sauce
Hardly a sauce at all, at least how I think of a sauce, it’s more of a condiment.
Although it tasted a bit strong and overpowering by itself, paired with the rich pork of the Bo Ssam, it was a thing of beauty. I think it’s best made a little ahead so the flavors have a chance to mellow and mingle.
I did add just a touch of sugar to it. I also knew our family would be slow starters on this one, and cut the recipe back by half when I served the Bo Ssam.
