Ginger Dressing
This delicious Ginger Dressing tastes just like the kind served on the salad at your favorite Japanese restaurant.
Ingredients
1 cup sweet onion, such as Vidalia, chopped
6 tablespoons grated fresh ginger *see tip in Notes below
1/4 cup celery, chopped
1/2 cup carrots, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh garlic minced
2/3 cup rice vinegar
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 cup agave nectar
1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1 tablespoon white miso paste, optional but recommended
1 cup good quality peanut oil
Instructions
- In a food processor place the onion, grated ginger, celery, carrots and garlic and puree until the vegetables are fine and grainy but not pureed.
- Add the vinegar, water, ketchup, soy sauce, agave, lemon juice, salt, pepper and optional miso paste. Pulse a few times to mix the ingredients.
- With the processor running, add the oil in a steady stream then stop. The mixture should be loose but be a bit grainy.
- Enjoy over a simple iceberg and tomato salad.

Notes
- Honey can be substituted for the agave in this dressing recipe. But we like using the agave because it is sweet with a mild flavor. Honey has a unique taste and may alter the finished flavor.
- Grate the ginger before adding to the food processor to get the exact measurement of six packed tablespoons.
- The miso paste cuts the acid a bit and rounds out the flavor. The dressing is good without it, but it helps smooth out the flavors.
