Filipina ghost mom never steers me wrong.

Whenever I need to spruce up some blah japanese takeout, I make this:

Tiny spoonlet garlic salt
Tiny spoonlet furukake (i love seaweed and sesame seeds)
A few grinds of black pepper (mom used ground white pepper)
A few shakes rice vinegar (the sharpness of the vinegar should slightly outweigh the soy sauce)
A few heavy shakes soy sauce
A few shakes of Tapatío (or anything that brings the heat -- you want a little bite -- I have also used a couple jalapeño slices)

Mix it and then dump it (or sprinkle if you're civilized) over the blah dish. You *will* turn feral.

My mom's original was better but she used this as dipping sauce for everything.

In grad school I'd make a small jar and use it for lumpia, egg rolls, any kind of dumpling or picket full of meat.
