Typical sesame dressing is high in sodium from the soy sauce (even the low-salt varieties are high in salt). This dressing is well balanced, low in sodium, and adds flair to just about any dish. Toasted sesame oil is aromatically pleasing and adds a meaty flavor that is balanced by tangy rice vinegar, zesty ginger, and crunchy sesame seeds.
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
2 teaspoons rice vinegar
2 teaspoons fresh grated ginger
2 teaspoons unsalted sesame seeds
In a small bowl, mix the sesame oil, rice vinegar, ginger, and sesame seeds until well combined. Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
FLAVOR TIP:
For added heat, add ½ teaspoon of hot sauce and 1 teaspoon of lime juice to balance it out.
