Dressing

Blog categories: 

Wow, what a salad dressing!

A lady I know is a great cook, and she gave me this recipe:

1 part soy sauce (I use Kikkoman)
1 part oil (take a cheap one: it shouldn't give any taste to the dressing)
1 part honey (sugar works, too, but will take a while to dissolve in the soy sauce)
cayenne (or tabasco)
garlic (crushed cloves to taste, or use top-quality dried garlic instead)

More exact measurements, for the sugary dried spices version: about 1 dl oil, 1 dl soy sauce, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 teaspoon dried cayenne, 1 teaspoon dried garlic. Add 3-4 tablespoons of this, well mixed, to your green salad of choice (or to your sashimi). Yum.

I've made a couple batches now, and the lettuce with tomatoes and feta just flies off the table. Like, wow.

I made this dressing and it tastes awsome! I've been using it as a dipping sauce and salad dressing and everything... seems it is also very lasting. Been in the fridge for a week now and no change in taste or anything. Thanks for the recepie

I think a light virgin olive oil or safflower is recommended for that sort of recipe- some thing that will help reduce bad chollestral

Its like chasing down slow moving wild life

Well, no. You don't want to use anything cold-pressed for this dressing. El cheapo cooking oil, no taste whatsoever - that's the ticket. Don't believe me? Try it either way. Cold-pressed oils taste ghastly, here.
