I used to eat salad with peanut sauce when I grew up. Look up “gado-gado” that is my favorite salad, because I love peanut. Then I discover oil and vinegar for healthier or let’s just say less calorie salad. I have a recipe for easy basic vinaigrette here. And then I discover miso paste.
I had so much miso soup in my life, but never made it once, you know sometimes you have certain food that you just refuse to make it yourself. I know I have several. For some longer reason, too long to explain, I ended up with a packet of miso paste that has been sitting in my fridge for months now. So I decided to just toss that in into a jar and made a salad dressing -Asian inspired. And let me tell you, it worked.
There is only one step to this recipe and this salad dressing is a hit. Please give it a try and thank me later. Don’t even thank me, just appreciate your food for the day! Hmmmm miso….
