Sesame Ginger Dressing
Description
The Sesame Ginger Dressing combines equal parts neutral and sesame oil with rice wine vinegar, honey, soy sauce, and freshly grated ginger and garlic for a harmonious flavor with saltiness, sweetness, acidity, and warmth from the ginger and garlic. Toasted sesame seeds add crunchy nutty accents throughout.
Whisked together until well blended, this dressing is versatile as a salad dressing or a finishing sauce for stir-fries. It can also marinate chicken, fish, or shrimp while imparting its distinctive flavor.
Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks to maintain freshness, as it uses fresh garlic and ginger which can lose potency over time.
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons neutral oil
- 6 tablespoons sesame oil
- 6 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
- 6 tablespoons honey
- 6 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons ginger grated
- 6 garlic grated cloves
- 3 teaspoon sesame seeds toasted
Instructions
- Combine all dressing ingredients into a liquid measuring cup.
- Whisk together until completely combined.
Notes
- Keep the dressing refrigerated in an airtight container for up to two weeks for optimal freshness.
- This dressing can marinate chicken, fish, or shrimp within recommended time frames to infuse flavor.
- Use it as a sauce by drizzling over stir-fried proteins and vegetables for a tangy finish.
