Learn how to make Sesame Ginger Dressing easily with this simple recipe.
I made this sesame ginger dressing for the first time a long time ago, back when I was testing the waters with preparing my own sauces. Since then, it has become one of my favorite go-to salad dressings, marinades or noodle sauces.
It’s basically delicious with everything.
I usually double the recipe and keep a jar in the refrigerator for last minute dinner ideas since, yes, like I said, it is good on everything! Marinate beef, chicken or shrimp, pour over rice with roasted vegetables, mix in with your favorite greens, or use it as a stir-fry sauce. The ingredients are simple, but the flavor is huge. Of course, as the name implies, much of the amazing flavor comes from sesame and fresh ginger. If you don’t care for either of these ingredients, I recommend cutting each in half (sesame oil has an especially strong flavor).
In other news, my camera wouldn’t turn on yesterday. At all. I put on a good face for Octavian, but I was dying inside. My dear husband got it working again, but has no idea how he did it sooooo now I’m terrified to take out the SD card, charge the battery or just try to turn it on. I had THREE recipes ready and set yesterday when nope, my camera decided it would just take the day off.
