Soy-Ginger Salad Dressing

Because of the fresh ginger and often oil content, refrigeration is recommended for optimal freshness and safety. Ensure it's in an airtight container.

Shake well before each use, as ingredients can separate.

Use as a marinade for chicken, tofu, or fish before grilling or baking.

Drizzle over steamed or roasted vegetables for an extra flavor boost.

Incorporate into a stir-fry sauce for added depth.

Leafy greens (spinach, kale, romaine)

Crunchy vegetables (carrots, bell peppers, snow peas)

Cooked grains (rice, quinoa)

Proteins (chicken, tofu, shrimp, salmon)

Sesame seeds, chopped peanuts, or cashews for garnish

Not tasting and adjusting seasoning: Some store-bought versions can be very salty; taste and add a touch of sweetness or acid if needed.

Over-marinating delicate ingredients: The soy sauce can start to 'cook' or toughen things like fish if left too long.
