I cringe to think <a href=\"https:\/\/wellnessmama.com\/health\/msg-bad\/\">how much MSG<\/a>, high fructose corn syrup, and other terrible ingredients I ate back then. Asian salad dressing was one of the foods on that list.<\/p>\n<p>When I <a href=\"https:\/\/wellnessmama.com\/health\/wellness-lifestyle\/\">switched to real food<\/a>, I stopped eating the processed versions and decided to look for healthier alternatives.<\/p>\n<p>One of my favorites was a delicious Asian salad that had an amazing dressing I\u2019d eaten at a little restaurant on a trip one time. Of course, I had to recreate it. This Asian salad dressing recipe is the result. I love whipping it up for a quick side salad topping or a marinade for meats or fish.<\/p>\n<p>This dressing is delicious drizzled on cauliflower rice or as an overnight marinade to make sesame chicken. It takes minutes to make and is full of flavor.

Dried ginger is milder but still delivers a warm spiciness.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Herb Options<\/strong>: Adding fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley brings a fresh, herbal layer to the dressing. Leave them out for a simpler vinaigrette.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sweetness<\/strong>: Adjust the sweetness to your liking with honey or maple syrup.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lemon Juice<\/strong>: Use fresh lemon or lime juice instead of apple cider vinegar for a bright, citrusy twist. Rice wine vinegar or rice vinegar also works and fits the Asian flavor theme.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Coconut Aminos<\/strong>: Not everyone has coconut aminos on hand. If you still want some yummy umami flavor low sodium soy sauce will also work if you\u2019re not avoiding soy. Tamari (a traditional Japanese sauce) has a similar taste but is gluten-free.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Olive Oil: <\/strong>Olive oil can have a very robust flavor not everyone likes in salad dressing. Use extra virgin olive oil for full flavor, or regular olive oil for a milder version. Many store-bought versions use canola oil or even grapeseed oil, but these aren\u2019t the best options (for several reasons!).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ways-to-use-the-asian-salad-dressing\">Ways to Use the Asian Salad Dressing<\/h3>\n<p>I use this dressing for so many different dishes. I\u2019ve already mentioned it makes a good marinade (and of course salad dressing). Here are some more serving ideas.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Make a side salad or a big green salad and top it with chicken for a full meal. I like dark leafy greens for nutrition and some romaine for added crunch.<\/li>\n<li>Create your own Asian slaw with shredded cabbage and carrots and this Asian ginger dressing.<\/li>\n<li>Want some topping ideas? Try sliced green onions, toasted sesame seeds, shredded carrots, or a drizzle of toasted sesame oil.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-more-asian-inspired-recipes\">More Asian Inspired Recipes<\/h3>\n<p>I eventually created healthy versions of Chinese recipes that I loved.
