MISO-SESAME VINAIGRETTE THAT'S GOOD ON ANYTHING



Miso-Sesame Vinaigrette That's Good on Anything image

This all-purpose miso-sesame vinaigrette is great on a simple salad with lettuces and fresh vegetables, such as cucumbers, tomatoes, sliced onions, radishes, jicama or grated carrots, or in this Chicken and Cabbage Salad. Try it drizzled on an iceberg wedge, over sliced leftover steak, chicken or tofu, or on grilled seafood, served hot or cold. It's especially good with grilled salmon and spicy greens like watercress, mizuna or arugula.

Time 5m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 medium garlic cloves, smashed with the side of a knife
1 small shallot, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons shoyu or tamari
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons red or white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon light miso paste
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
1/2 cup grapeseed, vegetable or canola oil
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons toasted white or black sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Combine garlic, shallot, shoyu, vinegars, miso and sugar in a blender and blend on high speed until homogenous. (Alternatively, mash garlic and shallots in the bowl of a large granite or marble mortar and pestle into a fine paste using the pestle, then stir in the shoyu, vinegars, miso and sugar.)
  • With the blender running on medium speed (the liquid should form a vortex but not jump up and splatter on the walls of the blender), slowly drizzle in the grapeseed oil. (If using a mortar and pestle, slowly drizzle in the oil as you stir vigorously with the pestle.)
  • Transfer to a lidded jar. Stir in the sesame oil and sesame seeds with a spoon. Dressing can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks. Shake well before using.

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.

Categories     Condiment/Spread     Sauce     No-Cook     Quick & Easy     Vinegar     Sesame     Gourmet

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon Asian (toasted) sesame oil
2 tablespoons black or white sesame seeds, toasted lightly
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/3 cup water
coriander leaves for garnish

Steps:

  • In a small bowl whisk together ingredients.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for sesame oil and tamari that are made with organic, non-GMO soybeans.
  • If you don't have any sesame oil, you can substitute another type of oil, such as olive oil or grapeseed oil.
  • If you don't have any tamari, you can substitute soy sauce. However, tamari has a richer flavor and will give the vinaigrette a more authentic taste.
  • Feel free to adjust the proportions of the ingredients to suit your own taste. If you like a sweeter vinaigrette, add more maple syrup or honey. If you like a more tangy vinaigrette, add more rice vinegar or lemon juice.
  • Store the vinaigrette in a tightly sealed jar or container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Sesame tamari vinaigrette is a versatile dressing that can be used on salads, vegetables, tofu, and even fish. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With its delicious umami flavor, this vinaigrette is sure to become a favorite in your kitchen.
