Ginger Lime Salad Dressing


Is it odd that I'm just posting a recipe for a salad dressing and not a salad? This stuff is dynamite! Ever since I made this dressing weeks ago, I have been eating it like crazy! The dressing was actually part of a steak salad with it's own separate marinade for the meat, but I wasn't crazy about the rest of it, only this dressing. I decided to use it with this Asian Slaw, minus the peppers, instead and was absolutely blown away with how good it was. I've been getting a lot of cabbage in my produce co-op basket and this was a great way to use it up.

Ginger Lime Dressing
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup sugar
2 Tbsp. lime juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 Tbsp. fresh ginger, minced (or grated using a microplane)
1 jalapeno, seeded and finely diced (or 1/2 jalapeno, depending on how spicy you like it)

Combine everything but the jalapeno in a blender and blend until emulsified. Add the jalapeno and pour into a serving container.

  2. Well, I think everything but the jalapenos would keep several weeks or more. If longevity was your goal, I would add the jalapeno as needed. If not, I think it would keep at least 2 weeks.
