Let’s Breakdown the Ingredients!
This dressing is made with lots of fun and deep flavours. Take a peek at some of the ingredients that make a perfect balance of sweet, savoury and warm salad dressing.
White miso is a fermented paste made from rice, barley, and soybeans. It generally has this nice mild, mellow, nutty sweetness as opposed to red miso. Red miso normally has a stronger pungent flavour from longer fermentation.
Ginger is a wonderful ingredient to use in savoury and sweet dishes. It adds a warm, spicy, and zesty flavour to every dish. The garlic adds a warm flavour that sometimes comes off as spicy. The juice and zest of lime bring a slightly sour, acidic and citrus taste to the dressing.
I use rice wine vinegar to add a sweet acidic taste, the soy sauce has a sweet and salty combination, and the sesame oil adds a beautiful nutty and woody flavour to the dressing. To balance the acidic and savoury flavours, I’ve added maple syrup to add a tinge of sweetness.
To make this dressing smooth, I used canola oil to give it a soft texture and help the other ingredients shine brightly!
Ingredients:
- 1 tbs white miso
- 1 1/2 inches fresh ginger
- 1 clove garlic
- 1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
- 1 tbs toasted sesame seeds
- 1 tbs maple syrup
- 1 Lime, juice and zest
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tsp sesame oil
- 3/4 cup canola oil
Instructions:
- Add all of the ingredients, minus the oil, into the bowl of the blender. Blend on high for 30 seconds or until smooth. With blender still running, slowly stream in oil. Do not rush this process. Once oil is done, dressing is ready!
