Asian Orange Vinaigrette with Ginger
This Asian Orange Vinaigrette is the perfect balance of flavors - lively and tangy, slightly sweet, a little heat and just enough sea salt to bring out all of the flavor notes. Light and delicious, great for salads and so easy to make!
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- 1/2 each orange, juiced
- 1 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar I prefer Mitsukan brand
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1/8 tsp sea salt to taste
- ¼ cup light vegetable oil
Instructions
- Whisk together all of the ingredients.
Notes
You can choose different citrus to use in the dressing.
Store vinaigrettes in a jar or other container with a tight lid so that it's easy to shake it up again when you need it.
Generally speaking, any oils labeled "vegetable oil" or "salad oil" are fine for making a basic vinaigrette. You could also use any light, neutral-flavored oil like safflower, canola, or soybean oil.
Ideally, you'd prepare the vinaigrette in advance and then let it sit for anywhere from 1 to 3 hours. Just don't refrigerate it during this time!
