    This Asian Sesame Dressing is a healthy salad dressing made from scratch, with just a few simple ingredients, like fresh ginger and garlic, toasted sesame oil and soy sauce.

    I use it with my Asian Slaw and serve it over Korean Beef Tacos or Thai Peanut Noodles, for a delicious takeout dinner made at home.

      Made this tonight with an Asian salad... I didn’t like the dressing that came with it... Delicious! And my boyfriend loved it! Added a little more ginger (used powder, all I had) garlic and honey- just a tad. Thank you for an awesome recipe I will keep in my recipe book!
