Sesame-Ginger Salad Dressing

Briny, sweet, and tangy, this homemade sesame-ginger salad dressing is the perfect dressing for salads featuring kale, cabbage, bok choy, and other greens. It gives these raw veggies a lovely Asian-flavored spin.

Honestly, I don’t have a whole lot more to say about this dressing recipe other than that it’s quite useful and I refer to it in a number of recipes on this site. It takes mere minutes to make, and while I’m not sure that doing so is more economical that buying it bottled, I think it tastes better!
