As usual, I’m not giving amounts for the salad cause you can use more or less of whatever you want. The recipe for the dressing is given though. I start with green salad bowl leaf lettuce and radicchio travesio. In Asian style salads, I like to use blanched carrots. (Just julienne the carrots and throw them in boiling water for a few seconds and then rinse them under cool water.) They have a great bright orange color and are just a bit more tender. I also julienne some seedless cucumbers, and then add my baked tofu chunks on top.
The fresh ginger in the dressing ads a nice kick.
Spicy Sesame Dressing
- 2 teaspoons tahini
- 1 teaspoon seasoned rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon honey
- 1/4 teaspoon minced ginger
It’s a great salad as a side or a main dish. I had it for lunch yesterday.
This dressing looks really good. I can’t wait to try it.
Manger la ville, let me know what you think.
tahini sounds familiar… it’s a sauce that’s often used in middle eastern food right??
i like watching horror films .. and the IT written by stephen king is my all time favourite.
Renaye, tahini is sesame paste and it used in Middle Eastern foods.
That sesame dressing looks so delicious!!
Thanks Wonders, it was!
Thank you for an alternate to the ‘balsamic, oil, lemon’ dressing rut that I’ve been in. So easy to branch out. Looks delicious!
Eat it Brooklyn, I hear you, I’m often doing the balsamic/olive oil thing myself.
