Ingredients

  • 3 strawberries fresh, washed and stems removed, halved
  • ¾ cup rice vinegar
  • 2 teaspoon mirin
  • 2 teaspoon sugar
  • ½ teaspoon mustard powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ cup sesame oil
  • ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a blender or food processor, add the strawberries, rice vinegar, mirin, sugar, mustard powder, and salt.
  2. Puree on high until smooth...about 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  3. With the blender still running, slowly add the oil in a steady stream until well blended.
  4. Transfer to a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Serve at once or refrigerate for up to 2 days.

Notes

  • Rice vinegar and mirin can be found in the Asian section of most well-stocked supermarkets.  Substitutes: White wine vinegar for the rice vinegar and dry sherry or sweet marsala for the mirin.  NOTE: Mirin has very low alcohol content, whereas sherry and marsala will have higher levels.
  • Frozen strawberries can be used if fresh are not available. 
  • The vinaigrette can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, but is at its freshest when served immediately, or within 2 days.  
  • We recommend that if not serving immediately, let the dressing come to room temperature before serving.
