All-Purpose Ginger Sauce

This sauce is good for dipping, marinating, sasting and even as a salad dressing. It was one of Moo's staples. Try it...you'll like it. More importantly, you find dozens of ways to use it and give a little distinction to an ordinary dish. I have friends who use it and literally come up with new uses for it every day. This palate pleaser is becoming a staple in their kitchen too.

2 inch piece of ginger, remove skin and chop coarsely
½ cup oil, your choice (I prefer a good olive oil)
¾ cup soy sauce
1 small wedge of orange, seeded
½ small onion, sliced
¼ cup rice vinegar
1 small wedge lemon, seeded

Blend all ingredients in blender or food processor until smooth. Serve as a dipping sauce for steak, chicken, seafood or salad dressing.
