I serve this with cut fresh veggies for a light appetizer
2 inch piece of ginger root, peeled and grated with a microplane
½ medium carrot, peeled and grated with a microplane
1 inch piece of onion, grated with a microplane
¼ cup avocado or other oil
1 tbsp honey
1 tsp sesame seed oil
2 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
Optional:
Salt to taste
White pepper to taste
1/2 shallot peeled, chopped
1/2 garlic clove
Add all ingredients in a bowl and stir.
Store in a jar. Will last 1-2 weeks in the refrigerator.
I grate the ginger, carrot and onion with a microplane because I like the thick consistency but it is not too coarse. But you can you chop the vegetables coarsely and then whirl all ingredients in a blender or food processor until smooth.
The original recipe only called for ½ piece of ginger to make salad dressing. I quadrupled it for dipping raw vegetables, but you can add less for a less thick consistency for salads.
