I am giving this recipe five stars despite a flaw in the sauce. I made the sauce with Worcestershire sauce and it wasn't right for the recipe. I remade the sauce with soy sauce in the same amount and it matched the recipe. The dip is addictive and excellent. It reminded me of lettuce wrap filling made as a dip. Excellent. Thank you for this one. It will become a go-to dip for me.
