Watch out
Scallions must be thoroughly mashed to release juices so they blend with salt to release flavor, otherwise the dipping sauce will taste too raw.
Peel, wash, and dry 50g of ginger, then grate it into ginger paste. Add the prepared scallions, 1 teaspoon of oil, and 1 teaspoon of light soy sauce, mix well, and let rest for half a minute.
