ASIAN SESAME DRESSING

Asian Sesame Dressing image

A fantastic standby dressing to have on hand because it keeps for 3 weeks! Use this Asian dressing for leafy green salads, Asian slaws, noodle salads and chopped salads. It's also a terrific dressing to make steamed vegetables so much tastier. Finish with a sprinkle of fresh sesame seeds and sliced greens onions!

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tbsp toasted sesame oil
1/4 cup white vinegar ((adjust to taste for sharpness))
1/4 cup olive oil ((Note 1))
1 tbsp sugar ((any type) or 1 1/2 tbsp honey)
1 tbsp soy sauce
2 tsp toasted sesame oil
1 tbsp white vinegar
1 tbsp olive oil ((Note 1))
1 tsp sugar ((any type) or 1 1/2 tsp honey)

Steps:

Place ingredients in a jar and shake well until sugar is dissolved. Adjust saltiness with salt and sweetness with sugar to taste.
Keep for up to 3 weeks, in the fridge (to be safe). Bring to room temp and shake well before use.
Single serving batch is enough for 3 - 4 cups of shredded cabbage / leafy greens i.e. a side salad for 4 people.
Big batch - my rule of thumb for how much dressing to use is generally 1 tbsp of dressing per 1 packed cup of shredded vegetables and 2 tsp per handful of leafy greens.
