Key Ingredients
Miso Paste – Made from fermented soybeans, miso paste not only tastes delicious but is good for you, too! It’s packed with probiotics for a healthy gut which can strengthen your immune system. Most of the flavor in this dressing comes from the miso paste. It’s deliciously rich and savory. Rice Vinegar – This Asian-inspired recipe tastes best with rice vinegar. Though, if you don’t have any on-hand you could use apple cider vinegar or white vinegar instead. Honey – This sweet touch helps to balance out the flavors of this dressing. It brings down the acidity and compliments the savory components. If you’d like to make this vegan, simply swap maple syrup for the honey.
Chef’s Tips
Don’t be shy when whisking! The miso dressing will appear separated at first, but with a little time and elbow grease it will all come together. You could also pulse everything in a blender or food processor for a couple of seconds, until it comes together.If using fresh ginger, peel the skin off the ginger before grating it. Also, use the finest grater you have! We’re looking for a very finely minced ginger, so avoid any big chunks.Add water if the miso dressing appears too thick. Work with just a tablespoon at a time, as to not water it down too much. Remember – you can always add more water, but you can’t take any away!
