FAQ

Can this go in a shake jar?

Yes. Its liquids pour to printed fill-lines, so it can be one of the sauces on a PantryFlex jar.

What do the quantities mean?

Amounts in the ingredient list are from the published source, converted to ml and grams where the ingredient allows. On a jar, every sauce scales to the same fill height.

Where did this recipe come from?

Adapted from NHK Kyou no Ryouri (kyounoryouri.jp, warm cabbage salad) (published as “Wafu Dressing (Umamiso-zu + Olive Oil)”). Full citation lives in Provenance.
