Truthfully, my mother-in-law (born in Tokyo) makes the dip, and my husband does sometimes. A little soy sauce never hurts, but I really like the addition of a sharp green leafy herb. I don't know what might be available in your neck of the woods that would be good (a basil, maybe), since we only get shiso here because we grow it. So, I'd recommend a little soy sauce, a little herb, and maybe some ginger (again). It's hard to go wrong with grated ginger.
We've always used Kikkoman, which my allergy-prone inlaws can tolerate. Can you get it there, or do you find it difficult to tolerate?
