    Red Onions – Red onions add a nice pungent flavor to the dressing. If they’re not available, then use any onion (yellow or white) available in your pantry.

    Ginger – Fresh ginger is the star ingredient and adds a great flavor. Use freshly grated ginger for the best taste.

    Extra Virgin Olive Oil – Use good quality extra virgin olive oil. You can replace extra virgin olive oil with avocado oil, grapeseed oil, avocado oil, light olive oil, or peanut oil.

    Rice Vinegar – It gives the dressing a mild sweet flavor. You can replace it with white wine vinegar, white vinegar, or lime juice.

    Dark Soy Sauce and Ketchup – A staple in hibachi cooking, dark soy sauce add an umami taste to the dressing. On the other hand, ketchup adds a sweet tangy flavor.

    Sugar – Balances the salty and tangy flavor of the dressing.

    Lime Juice – Use only freshly squeezed lime juice for the refreshing tangy flavor.

    Others – You will also need celery, salt, black pepper, and water.
