Why This Recipe Works

For a quick, flavorful sauce that dresses up anything from grilled meats to roasted vegetables, we finely chopped kimchi and then stirred in savory soy sauce and sliced scallions. We brightened the sauce with rice vinegar and gave the flavors 15 minutes to meld before serving.
