Finally! This is the miso dressing I've been searching for ever since I first tasted one at a gourmet health food restaurant. I love the creaminess from the tahini and the miso blended together that makes it thick and rich. I used the mild, sweet white miso and consequently didn't need as much sugar, cutting it in half. This dressing goes with a wide variety of salads, vegetables as well as rice and noodle salads. I'm so happy that you posted this wonderful recipe, Sharon123.

I like miso and this is a terrific dressing. I used peanut butter instead of tahini (I like PB better and I didn't have tahini!!) I also thinned it down with white wine. Made an excellent dressing for a green salad. Thanks Sharon123

Very tasty dressing. I used Agave sweetener instead of sugar, otherwise I stuck to the recipe. I used it on a romaine and radicchio salad with chicken strips, outstanding! This is a keeper, thank you, Sharon, for posting!
