Ingredients

Scale

Dressing Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1/4 cup white vinegar (adjust to taste for sharpness)
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 tbsp sugar (any type) or 1 1/2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp white vinegar
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp sugar (any type) or 1 1/2 tsp honey

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Place all the dressing ingredients into a jar. Make sure the jar has a tight-fitting lid to prevent spills when shaking.
  2. Shake Well: Close the jar and shake vigorously until the sugar has fully dissolved and the dressing appears smooth and well-emulsified.
  3. Adjust to Taste: Taste the dressing and add salt if needed for saltiness, or more sugar or honey if you prefer it sweeter.
  4. Store the Dressing: Keep the dressing refrigerated for up to 3 weeks. Before each use, bring to room temperature and shake well to remix any ingredients that may have separated.
  5. Serving Suggestion: Use about 1 tablespoon of dressing for every packed cup of shredded vegetables or 2 teaspoons per handful of leafy greens. One batch dresses approximately 3-4 cups of vegetables, serving about 3-4 people as a side salad.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of vinegar to achieve your preferred level of tanginess.
  • Use honey for a natural sweetness or sugar for a neutral sweetness depending on dietary preference.
  • Shake well before each use as the ingredients may separate over time.
  • Store the dressing in a sealed jar in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
  • Perfect for cabbage salads, leafy greens, or as a dip for fresh vegetables.
