Ginger Dipping Sauce or Marinade

[Carmella]

This sauce/marinade has become a favorite of ours when we feel like something spicy. We sometimes use it to marinate veggies which we then serve on top of quinoa or rice noodles. We also recently served it as a dipping sauce for Spring Rolls at a catered dinner.
