For salads, simply toss with your favorite greens and toppings. As a marinade, pour it over chicken, pork, or firm tofu, ensuring all surfaces are coated. Let it sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or longer for a more intense flavor. It can also be brushed onto vegetables like bell peppers and zucchini before grilling or roasting, adding a vibrant color and savory depth. A spoonful can even elevate simple pasta dishes or grain bowls.
How it differs from similar foods
