Ginger-Sesame Dressing/Sauce/Marinade
"This is an awesome Spicy/Sweet/Savory Asian Sauce that can be used either to dress up a salad (served cold), or even a bland meat dish (like a marinade or sauce). I found this recipe on Epicurious (originally from "Bikini Bootcamp") but modified it according to the users recommendations and my own knowledge of various vinegars. If you do not have the vinegars called for here, you can substitute apple cider vinegar plus a little sugar. This has terrific flavor, and both my picky husband and my young children all love it!"

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I love old fashioned cooking; as traditional as you can get. Also, I tend to care more about nutrition than flavor; although my DH cares more about restaurant-quality-flavor than nutrition. So my recipes are likely to be a nice blend of both (Of course the traditional recipes have a tendency to have amazing flavor AND nutrition anyway!)
Also, I am willing to do the extra work that releases the most nutrition in a recipe, so mine will not necessarily be the easiest recipes. On the other hand, I'm a freak for efficiency, so you can bet I'll find the simplest way to capture it all.
