Scallion And Ginger Oil

Directions

1. 1
   Note: Most ingredients are to taste because once the mixture cools down and mixed, you can add more salt, soy sauce or vinegar to your liking.
2. 2
   Heat a pan on the stove over medium heat. Add oil and let it heat up. Nothing smoking hot, but something you know is nice and warm.
3. 3
   When oil is hot, add scallions, ginger, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar to a bowl. Pour in the hot oil, and stir. Let it come to room temperature, then taste a bit and adjust any seasoning if necessary.
4. 4
   Trust me when I say this: this stuff rocks. It's the hidden umami that everyone asks about when I use it, either on potatoes, omelets, or on grilled meat. It's that good, and it lasts for weeks in the refrigerator.
