This recipe had an interesting taste to it. It is fat free and quite healty, will try it again. Not sure if I liked the texture, but I need to use fat free and this is much better than any bottle dressing on the grocers shelf

I'm giving this five stars because it is a good recipe. I actually did not like the dressing, however, that is just a personal taste preference. I am a "sweet" dressing kindof girl. I used Bragg's Liquid Aminos in place of the tamari as well. I think I will try a version without the cumin, again, as a personal preference. Solid recipe!

This is really good...a little odd, but really good. I liked the addition of nutritional yeast especially. I won't have any trouble finishing this off; it's great on a spinach salad. Thanks for sharing!

I was going to give this 4 stars until I realized that it was because I'm not a fan of cumin. This is a terrific fat-free salad dressing and shouldn't be down-graded because I don't like cumin. I'm going to try different spices to see if I can find a variation without cumin that works as well the original. If I do, I'll add it RecipeZaar for others to try!

This is an excellent salad dressing that we all enjoyed. We particularly loved the combination of the soy sauce, cumin and garlic...great flavor! Thanks for sharing, Zoo66.
