Notes

  • Use freshly minced ginger for the brightest and most pronounced flavor.
  • Let the dressing rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to enhance the flavor development.
  • Adjust sweetness, acidity, and salt to taste before serving.
  • Blend the ingredients with a slow oil drizzle to create a creamier, emulsified dressing if desired.
