I made this for dinner several weeks ago and it was just plain yum! The salad dressing recipe is yet another from the cooking classes that my mom used to attend and it is simply, aaaa-mazing.
Asian Dressing
3/4 c granulated sugar
2/3 c rice vinegar
1 1/2 tsp kosher salt (I used sea salt, it was fine)
2 cloves garlic
2 Tbsp soy sauce
1 Tbsp hoisin sauce (can find in the Asian food section of your supermarket, it also referred to as plum sauce)
1 1/2 tsp course ground pepper
1/4 to 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
2 Tbsp sesame oil
1 1/2 c peanut or vegetable oil
In food processor using metal blade, drop whole garlic through feed tube with machine running. Add all ingredients except oil, pulse to blend. With machine running, slowly pour oil through feed tube until emulsified into dressing. Store in refrigerator up to one month. Remove from refrigerator prior to use; whisk or stir before serving. Makes about 2 cups.
Salad
Romaine lettuce
Green onions
Cubed, cooked chicken
Mandarin oranges
Chinese noodles
Toasted, slivered almonds
Toss and serve with dressing on the side. Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteGreat recipe. I am so glad to have it! Thanks for linking to Tempt My Tummy Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely sounding dressing. I really enjoy salad this time of year so I'll definitely be giving it a try!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds awesome! I might be the only one to eat it, but that's okay with me. The recipe I used last time called for a packet of ramen seasoning and it was delicious too. I would like to use what I have on hand though so this works better.
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting!
