Besides the many meals like shrimp pasta, salad with shrimp or Shrimp Stir-Fry you can also keep it very easy and just prepare some shrimps with a tasty dipping sauce. This following recipe will explain you in 4 easy steps how to do it.
Usually the main components of a shrimp dipping sauce are soy sauce and rice wine vinegar. But as I am trying to eat healthy I came up with a new recipe idea with concentrated flavors and less liquid instead. Therefore the combination of ginger, garlic and honey seems to be perfect and is additionally great for your stomach health, too.
Ginger is a great digestive aid, it settles your stomach and helps to ward off colds.
