The flavor of the sauce that comes in the box is superior to this egg roll sauce. It’s a simple dipping sauce that only needs a few ingredients from Asia.

It’s good. But not for egg rolls. More like for potstickers.
This is THE sauce for egg rolls and fried wontons! I made it according to the measurements on the recipe, however, I added about a tablespoon of oyster sauce and a little bit of sugar.. Either way, the BEST sauce I’ve tried for DIY sauce! Thanks so much for the recipe! 🙂
4.25.22 I agree with many other reviewers that this is not a good sauce for egg rolls or spring rolls. I totally could see this with dumplings or pot stickers, but a traditional sweet chili sauce or hot mustard sauce continues to be my preference for egg rolls.
This was disgusting. It was an assault to my nose, tongue and face. I couldn’t eat it. It tastes like straight up vinegar. I followed the instructions exactly. I am legit so angry because I made eggrolls and was excited to eat them with this sauce.
This just tastes like soy sauce. There were no other discernible flavors.
This was amazing!!!
Wife highly approved. And I made it in less than 2 minutes.
This is quick and easy. Have made it several times and haven’t changed a thing. Thanks for the great recipe!
Didn’t have sesame oil so sauted sesame seeds in vegetable oil (Alexa’s advice).
I should have read the reviews before I tried this. The proportion of vinegar is way off in this as written. I’d suggest mixing the other ingredients and then adding a bit of vinegar at a time otherwise the vinegar is just way to overwhelming
Too much vinegar. I tried to fix it, but couldn’t and ended up tossing it out.
I have to agree with other posters on this one: too vinegary. Also, if you’re a fan of the usual plum sauce, this will be quite different from what you are expecting. I would add sugar and cut the vinegar for starters. Maybe play around with fresh garlic. But at that point, you might as well look for another recipe.
Served with what the Ellie egg rolls made from this site…. Out of this world…..
This is ridiculously salty and has way too much vinegar.
This is good but I added Srirachi Chili Sauce to taste.YUM!!
Very good sauce. I love vinegar, but my husband doesn’t so I sweetened it up by adding two tablespoons of brown sugar and he like it much better. We bought sushi and used it for dipping as well as egg rolls. Yum!!
Easy but too salty and too vinegary (even with low sodium soy sauce)
Very good… I didn’t have the onion but it still tasted good! Also for people complaining about the vinegar, Mirin (sweet cooking wine) is a great substitute
I love vinegar so I loved this sauce. No one else used it in my family. They used the bottled sweet & sour instead. I’ll make this again for myself because I LOVE vinegar on almost everything! I love sesame oil too!
Excellent. I added 2 T. of brown sugar and doubled the recipe.
This wasn’t the best sauce it had way too much soy sauce and the porportions were off. I didn’t have any ginger on hand, which may have made a difference. Either way it didn’t set right with the egg rolls I had.
