1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce

Unwrap and let cool slightly.

3. Squeeze garlic pulp from head into a blender or food processor (discard skins). Add remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil, lime juice, vinegar, ginger, sesame oil and soy sauce; blend or process until smooth. Season with pepper
