- Season the sauce to your liking with Seasoning, and add a drizzle of Chili Oil for some heat until warm and aromatic.
Step 3: Combine and Serve

- If using, gently fold in some fresh Sprouts at the end.
- Serve immediately while hot.
💡 Make-Ahead & Storage: Best served immediately upon preparation; the sauce can be prepared a few minutes ahead and kept warm on low heat.
