SESAME GINGER VINAIGRETTE



Sesame Ginger Vinaigrette image

My decision to devote this week's recipes to salad dressings was partly a reaction to my son's request for a bottled sesame ginger dressing. "We don't buy dressings in this house," I said huffily. The next day I looked at a bottle of sesame soy ginger dressing at a local market and was horrified to see that the second listed ingredient was sugar. I thought: I can make something sort of sweet and do better than that. And so I did. This dressing is great with green salads and cooked vegetables, as well as with noodles and grains.

SESAME GINGER VINAIGRETTE DRESSING



Sesame Ginger Vinaigrette Dressing image

This is almost identical to one of my favorite salad dressing at the resturaunt Bread and Company. There, it is served on a strawberry fields salad, but it makes a delicious dressing on any salad, fruity, oriental, or as a mariande. Just like at the resturaunt it is oily, but thats what makes it so tasty! Shake well before using, and try not to eat it as soup!

Tips:

  • Choose the right sesame oil: Toasted sesame oil has a more robust flavor than regular sesame oil, so it's best for this vinaigrette. However, if you don't have toasted sesame oil, you can use regular sesame oil and add a pinch of smoked paprika to give it a smoky flavor.
  • Use fresh ginger: Fresh ginger has a brighter, more vibrant flavor than ground ginger, so it's best to use it in this vinaigrette. If you don't have fresh ginger, you can use ground ginger, but use half the amount.
  • Add some heat: If you like your vinaigrettes with a little bit of heat, you can add a pinch of red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper to this recipe. Sriracha or sambal oelek would also be great additions.
  • Let the flavors meld: Once you've made the vinaigrette, let it sit for at least 15 minutes before using it. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Use it on salads, grilled meats, or roasted vegetables: This vinaigrette is versatile and can be used on a variety of dishes. It's especially good on salads, grilled meats, or roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

This sesame ginger vinaigrette is a delicious and easy-to-make dressing that can be used on a variety of dishes. It's perfect for adding a bright, Asian-inspired flavor to your meals. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make this vinaigrette in minutes. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty dressing, give this recipe a try.
