Miso Carrot Sauce With Ginger (Japanese Salad Dressing)

It really am amazed that people can taste something and recreate it like this. It was pretty spot-on as far as Japanese steak house salad dressings go. I only had red miso, and it turned out fine.

Just like on the salad served at my favorite sushi restaurant.

What a delicious, healthy dressing! I replaced one of the tablespoons of oil with water and used lemon juice instead of vinegar. I used extra miso and LOTS of extra ginger (I just can't get enough ginger lately). I didn't use the sugar, but after tasting, I did add a teaspoon of honey. Thanks for posting this; I will definitely make it again and again.

This is great! I used it over thinly sliced cabbage. I did not have to add any salt or pepper. I really enjoyed this!

Very good dressing. It tastes fresher than the one at the Japanese restaurant. It's so easy to make and I usually have all the ingredients on hand, so this was a breeze to put together. Who would have thought there were carrots in this? I used the amount of oil posted and found it was a little thick, so I thinned it with a tbsp water instead of adding more oil. Thanks for this great recipe.

Very tasty! No salt, pepper, or sugar needed for my tastes.

Very good - made for lunch today. I made per the recipe but when I got the miso out of the fridge, I saw mine was "mild red miso" instead of the white. One strong recommendation for others and what I will do next time is just add one teaspoon of the sesame oil at a time and taste as I go. I used the full tablespoon called for and found the dressing to be very nutty, probably not as gingery as I was hoping. I added two tablespoons of water as I found it to be very thick and wanted to toss it on the salad, not just top it. Next time I will increase my water to a quarter cup. I served this with a salad of head lettuce, alfalfa sprouts, green onions, celery, and chicken. Nice recipe, Kumquat's friend, I'll use it again!

This is a good solid carrot ginger vinaigrette type dressing. I you are looking for Japanese steakhouse dressing, this is definitely not it. I will keep looking for that... but thanks for a good and very healthy dressing!

Yes! This IS the orange dressing that I love at the Japanese restaurants. This made a LOT of dressing. Next time I'll make half the recipe. It doesn't take much of this dressing to flavor the salad. I made it as listed except that I did not have Miso on hand so skipped that ingred. I'm not a big fan of a lot of bite to my salad dressing so I used the sugar. Thanks for sharing! I'll keep this one on hand for sushi night! Reviewed for ZWT6.

Tossed some cucumber and radish in this dressing. Very tasty.

This is a wonderful, light dressing. It is very close to the dressing at my favorite sushi restaurant. It's a good dressing for a hot summer day.

This was very tasty. I wish I had used less than 1 inch of gingerroot, however, as it was too spicy. But I'll probably try again with less ginger.

This really tasted like the dressing at a Japanese restaurant, only better, because it was really, really fresh! One caveat, use the recommended white miso. All they had at the store today was red, and though my dressing still tasted great, it was very, very ugly.
