Here are several ways you can use gomadare sauce:

As a delicious dipping sauce for meat, vegetables, tofu and dumplings

Mix with a small amount of citrus juice or water to create a wonderful dressing for salad or noodles

Use as a topping to add a rich nuttiness to hot or cold noodle dishes

Marinate proteins like chicken, beef, tofu or fish before grilling. The sauce will infuse the proteins with a nutty flavour and create a delicious caramelized crust when cooked.

Serve alongside dishes like sushi, sashimi or rice bowls to add depth and complexity.

You can also experiment with adding other ingredients such as grated ginger, garlic or chilli flakes to enhance the sauce further.
