Asian Salad Dressing Ingredients

Asian salad dressing is tart, sweet, and savory. It gets its mouthwatering flavor from pantry staples like olive oil, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, and garlic. You'll also need some seasoned rice vinegar, which is a sweeter, more flavorful style of regular rice vinegar that's often used in Asian cuisine. When mixed together, these ingredients make a killer dressing that's great with all sorts of salads and slaws.

Tips for the Best Asian Salad Dressing

There are so many delicious variations on Asian salad dressing and they're all worth trying. Add a dollop of smooth peanut butter for a thick, creamy, dressing. Mix in chili flakes or a teaspoon of Sriracha for a spicy version. Squeeze in lime juice for a tangier, citrusy dressing.

To make a vegan Asian salad dressing, swap out the honey for maple syrup. Paleo Asian salad dressing is made by using coconut aminos instead of soy sauce.

To make keto Asian salad dressing, substitute honey for your favorite sweetener.

For a less tangy salad, use 3 tablespoons of seasoned rice vinegar.

How to Store Asian Salad Dressing

Keep your salad dressing in an airtight container and place it in the fridge for up to 1 week. If you leave out the garlic, Asian salad dressing lasts 2 weeks.
