From the Test Kitchen

The word “ponzu” can be broken down simply: the element “pon” comes from the English word “punch,” while “su” is Japanese for “vinegar.” A “vinegar punch” is what you’ll get in the dipping sauce for juicy steaks. Ponzu itself is traditionally made with rice vinegar and mirin, but we’re taking it even further by combining ponzu with ginger, scallions and one of our signature spice blends. You can imagine how delicious and deeply complex the result is—better yet, you can taste it!
