This Japanese Carrot Ginger Dressing is a vibrant, flavorful dressing inspired by restaurant-style flavors. It’s made with fresh carrots, onion, and ginger blended with soy sauce, rice vinegar, and oil to create a smooth, tangy, and slightly sweet dressing that’s perfect for salads featuring crisp lettuces like iceberg or romaine.

Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables & Aromatics

  • 7 ounces carrots, peeled and chopped
  • 4 ounces onion, peeled and finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons ginger, peeled and finely chopped

Liquids & Seasonings

  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup rice vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup organic canola or vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. Blend the base ingredients: Place the carrots, onion, ginger, sugar, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and salt into a blender. Blend on high speed until the mixture becomes completely smooth and well combined.
  2. Emulsify with oil: With the blender running on low, slowly drizzle in the canola or vegetable oil. Continue blending until the dressing thickens slightly and emulsifies, forming a creamy and cohesive texture.
  3. Serve or store: Use the dressing immediately on crisp lettuces such as iceberg or romaine for a refreshing salad, or transfer it to a jar and refrigerate for up to two weeks to enjoy later.

Notes

  • Store the dressing in an airtight jar or container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
  • Shake or stir well before each use as natural separation may occur.
  • Adjust sugar or salt levels to taste if desired.
  • For a lighter option, substitute half the oil with water or reduce oil amount.
