Miso Carrot & Sesame Dressing

March 13, 2014

Miso Dressing with Watercress SaladThis quick salad dressing tastes so good I can eat it alone by the spoonful.  The mellow white miso with its savory flavor is lightly sweetened with grated carrot and honey.  Fresh ginger gives the dressing a little kick and roasted sesame seeds add crunch. Serve with peppery, crisp, watercress. Very refreshing!

Grated Carrot & Ginger

Miso Carrot & Sesame DressingThe original recipe mentions the dressing can be made up to two days in advance of serving, however, I’ve kept it for up to four days and it was just fine.
