Goma Dressing Recipe | Creamy Sesame Dressing
Description
The recipe begins by toasting white sesame seeds until lightly golden, enhancing their nutty aroma. These are then coarsely ground with a mortar and pestle. Meanwhile, neutral oil is heated until hot and carefully poured over the toasted seeds and other ingredients, including grated garlic and ginger, rice vinegar, soy sauce, low-sodium white miso paste, mirin, honey, roasted sesame oil, and Japanese-style mayonnaise. This causes a sizzle that melds the flavors while emulsifying the mixture into a smooth, creamy dressing.
The dressing combines savory and slightly sweet components, with miso and soy providing umami depth, vinegar adding acidity, and sesame contributing a rich, warm nuttiness. The mayonnaise adds body and creaminess, making it suitable for coating greens or as a sauce for vegetables and proteins.
Leftover dressing should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator and stirred well before each use to maintain consistency and flavor. Using neutral oil is recommended to avoid overpowering the dressing’s delicate balance.
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons white sesame seeds toasted
- 1 - 2 tablespoons neutral oil adjust to how thin you like your dressing
- 1 garlic grated
- 1/4 teaspoon ginger grated
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar

- ½ teaspoon mirin
- 2 teaspoons White miso paste low-sodium
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil roasted
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise Japanese style
Instructions
- Add sesame seeds to a dry pan and heat on medium-high. Toast sesame seeds for a couple of minutes, or until they turn slightly golden, then transfer them to a mortar. Keep the heat on the pan and add neutral oil to heat until it’s hot.
- Meanwhile, grind sesame seeds using the mortar and pestle until it’s coarsely ground.
- Add the remaining ingredients to a mortar except for the honey, sesame oil, & Kewpie Japanese mayo.
- Once the oil is hot, carefully pour oil into the mortar and allow the ingredients to sizzle.
- Mix in honey, sesame oil, & Kewpie Japanese mayo until creamy. Drizzle dressing over salad and enjoy!
Notes
- Use neutral oil such as grapeseed or vegetable to avoid altering dressing flavor.
- Store leftover dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator and stir before use.
- Opt for low-sodium miso paste to better control saltiness; adjust seasoning as needed.
