Japanese Salad Dressing

The pungent miso also adds vitamins, protein, and nutrients to this healthy, low-fat dressing, which contains just a 1/4 teaspoon of sesame oil. Serve drizzled on top of a simple salad of iceberg lettuce and shaved carrots.

Yields: 1 cup

Ingredients:

3/4 cup red miso
3 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons mirin (Japanese rice wine)
2 tablespoons hot water
2 teaspoons light soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
1/2 head iceberg lettuce, torn
1 carrot, thinly sliced

In a small bowl, combine miso and sugar. Add mirin, water, soy sauce, sesame oil, and sesame seeds. Stir until well blended. Serve over lettuce and carrot slices. Toss to combine.
