2009-07-20 Monday - ginger miso dressing

ginger miso dressing

• ingredients: ginger, miso, rice wine vinegar, garlic, sugar, (optional) korean red pepper flakes
• makes more than enough for one big salad:
  
• mix in bowl:
  
• ~2 tsp ginger, minced as fine as possible
• 1 clove garlic, minced as fine as possible
• ~2 tsp red miso
  
• add enough rice wine vinegar to get the consistency you want (~3 tbs?)
• (optional) add pinch of korean red pepper flakes
• add pinches of sugar, to taste

This tastes just like the dressing we get at Japanese restaurants.
Be careful how much you use, as it tastes quite strong!
Better with chunky lettuce than chopped or baby lettuce
Tastes GREAT on pan-fried tofu.
