Great choice! Made with simple ingredients and no ultra-processed additives.
This appears to be a ginger-based sauce made primarily from fresh ginger, water, rapeseed oil, sugar, salt, and basic acids. None of these ingredients are UPF under the specified NOVA guidance. Acetic acid and citric acid are common basic acidifying agents, while rapeseed oil, sugar, and salt are basic culinary ingredients.

Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are industrial formulations made with ingredients and additives you wouldn't find in a home kitchen — such as emulsifiers, artificial flavourings, colourings and modified starches. The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
