How to make Asian Ginger Salad Dressing
While at a Japanese Teppanyaki restaurant a few years ago we were waiting for our chef to prepare the grill and we were brought out little bowls of miso soup and individual little salads. The salads weren’t fancy, just some lettuce and shredded carrot, but the salad dressing on them was delicious!
In my search for this dressing I have tried a lot of premade ones but there’s just not anything comparable to making this recipe at home. The fresh ginger is a game changer. Fresh & delicious!
Making Asian Ginger Salad Dressing is crazy easy to make. The prep work takes the most time in my opinion but once everything is ready, it takes about one minute and it’s ready.
I use a small food processor with a chopping blade. You can use a blender if you prefer. This makes about 1 1/2 cups.
Combine all ingredients in a small food processor or blender. I start with the liquid contents then add the rest but the order is not important.
Cover and process for 30 seconds to 1 minute until well blended.
Use immediately or store in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. This can be used as a dressing, a quick marinade, or brushed over vegetables before grilling. Enjoy!
