If you love sesame then this will be the type of dressing you will crave. I used to have it all the time in Japan and completely took it for granted. I could buy it ready made at the supermarket and it was almost always on salads in restaurants it was just a normal part of my life. But since moving back and not living near an asian food store I've had an empty spot on my salad. So I started to search for the perfect recipe and experiment until I can finally say this is the ONE!
Ingredients
2~3 Tablespoons Sesame seeds
11/2 Tablespoons Kewpie Mayonaise
1 Tablespoon [Sushi] Rice Wine Vinegar
1/2 Tablespoon Soy Sauce
1/2 Teaspoon Sesame oil
1/4 Teaspoon Mirin
pinch to taste of white pepper - (not pictured sorry I forgot)
Step 1
Dry roast sesame seeds in a fry pan with no oil until the seeds start to slightly colour and smell delicious.
Step 2
Crush up the roasted sesame seeds in a mortar - do leave some whole though
Step 3
Mix all ingredients together and serve on your favourite salad or over chicken, rice, tofu the list goes on.
I served my Sesame Dressing over a simple salad and had grilled chicken pieces with a dipping sauce. |
