Ingredients

½ cup yellow onion cut into large chunks
⅓ cup fresh ginger peeled and cut into large chunks
½ cup avocado oil or vegetable, canola oil, or grapeseed oil
¼ cup soy sauce or coconut aminos for a gluten-free option
¼ cup rice vinegar
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon granulated white sugar
1 teaspoon hot sauce optional, adjust to taste
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons water

Instructions

Add all ingredients to a blender or food processor. Pulse in short bursts until finely chopped but still slightly chunky. For a smoother texture, blend continuously.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.

Notes

If the dressing is too thick, add water one tablespoon at a time, pulsing until the desired consistency is reached.
