Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons tahini
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon mustard
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 2-3 tablespoons water
Instructions:
- Combine Ingredients: In a small bowl or a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the soy sauce, rice vinegar, tahini, sesame oil, olive oil, honey (or maple syrup), minced garlic, grated ginger, and mustard.
- Mix Well: Whisk the ingredients together until well combined and smooth. If using a jar, secure the lid and shake vigorously until the dressing is emulsified and creamy.
- Adjust Consistency: If the dressing is too thick, add water one tablespoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency. Whisk or shake well after each addition.
- Taste and Adjust: Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning as needed. You can add more honey for sweetness, more vinegar for tanginess, or more soy sauce for saltiness.
