Follow The Directions

01

Step
10 mins

In a heat-resistant bowl, combine the sliced scallions, minced garlic, minced ginger, Korean chili flakes (or crushed red pepper flakes), sesame seeds, and sesame oil. Ensure the bowl is large enough to accommodate the hot oil without overflowing. (Prep time: ~10 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

Heat the neutral vegetable oil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until it reaches approximately 350°F (175°C). If you don't have a thermometer, look for a shimmering surface and slight wisps of smoke. This should take about 5 minutes. Carefully pour the hot oil over the scallion mixture. Be cautious as it will bubble vigorously. Pour slowly and in stages to avoid splattering. (Cook time: ~5 minutes)

03

Step
15 mins

Once the bubbling subsides, stir the mixture thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well combined and infused with the hot oil. Allow the mixture to cool slightly for about 10-15 minutes before proceeding to the next step. (Cooling time: ~15 minutes)

04

Step
2 hrs

Stir in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and rice vinegar until fully incorporated. Transfer the Wet Wet Sauce to a clean jar or airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and deepen before using. (Chill time: ~2 hours)

For a spicier kick, increase the amount of Korean chili flakes or add a pinch of cayenne pepper.
If you prefer a vegetarian or vegan version, substitute the oyster sauce with an equal amount of mushroom sauce or a thick soy sauce alternative.
The Wet Wet Sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. The flavor will continue to develop over time.
Experiment with different oils to create variations in flavor. Infused oils, such as garlic or chili oil, can add an extra layer of complexity.
Adjust the amount of rice vinegar to your liking. For a tangier sauce, add a bit more; for a milder flavor, reduce the quantity.
