Toasted Sesame Asian Salad Dressing
If you are whipping up an Asian inspired salad, probably full of vegetables and some crunchy wontons, you need the perfect vinaigrette to finish it off. This Toasted Sesame Asian Salad Dressing is just the thing you have been looking for. It’s an easy and healthy dressing packing with amazing flavor and even a little crunch with toasted sesame seeds.
Asian Salad Dressing Recipe
This Toasted Sesame Asian Salad Dressing is full of flavorful sesame oil, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, and honey along with some fresh grated ginger. Then it is finished off with olive oil and blended up for a quick and easy salad dressing that packs a good punch of flavor without adding too many calories to your salad. The olive oil lightens things up because using all sesame oil would be overpowering.
If you have a big bad blender like the Vitamix I own and love, you can certainly use that to blend it up. I honestly prefer just making this in a wide mouth jar and giving it a quick whiz with my immersion blender. That way there is much less wasted dressing along the tall sides of the big blender. Best of all, I can just pop the lid on the jar and easily store it in the refrigerator.

I LOVE a good Asian salad dressing. I can’t wait to make my own!
There’s nothing like wontons and a good Asian dressing to top off a salad! YUM!
Oh wow, that Asian salad looks amazing! Now I totally have to make this dressing AND the salad!
I am putting this on my list to try this weekend!! I love making my own dressings!!
Used with a piece of salmon on top of the salad with this dressing. Very good! I think it could be a good salmon marinade and reserve some for the salad! Will make it again!
That sounds delicious!
Added:
1 cup of Br. Sugar
1 TBLSP Cornstarch
1 cup water
then thickened on low heat.
Why? Did u try making the original recipe and just wanted to change it up? Thank u
Way too salty! I would do one tablespoon of soy sauce instead of 1/4 cup.
Wow! That is a LOT of sodium and quite a few calories. Not sure how that is healthy, but to each his own I guess.
I am looking for a recipe that is like the dressing in the Dole Sesame Asian Chopped Salad Kit. Is this recipe like that? It looks similar to it. Thanks.
This was delicious thank you for sharing! I had some arugula/spinach mix I wanted to use up and not have to really make anything, so was looking for a salad dressing that might work. I divided the recipe by 4 as I only wanted about one serving, and it turned out great! I was lazy and didn’t want to dirty the blender for such a small quantity, so I put it in one of those shaker cups for protein powder, and it worked perfectly. My boring salad of ONLY arugula and spinach actually tasted amazing because of the dressing. Will definitely make this again with a *real* salad soon 🙂
