How to Make Ginger Scallion Oil

1. Heat Oil

Start by heating 7 tablespoons of neutral oil in a small saucepan until it just begins to shimmer.

2. Cook Scallions

Once the oil is ready, stir in the finely chopped scallions. Let them cook for about 20 seconds, just enough to release their aroma without browning.

3. Add Ginger

Next, add the ½ cup of roughly grated fresh ginger to the pan. Cook the ginger for 7 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the ginger turns a duller yellow color.

4. Add Seasonings

Clear a small space in the center of the pan and add ⅛ teaspoon each of sand ginger powder, fish sauce (if using), and clear rice wine. Let these ingredients sizzle for a few seconds to release their flavors into the oil.

5. Add Salt

Finally, stir in ¾ teaspoon of fine sea salt, adjusting to taste. Mix everything thoroughly to ensure the salt is evenly distributed.
