It’s such a great base to almost any sauce! You could go with a mayo based sauce or a spicy mayo. Or you can do an asian dipping sauce Dipping Sauce

2 tablespoons Gefen Soy Sauce

4 tablespoons Galilee’s Delicacy Silan (date syrup)

1 teaspoon rice vinegar or mirin

1 teaspoon minced garlic

1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
