Made with freshly grated ginger, this sweet and tangy Ginger Dressing is here to add some zip and zing to any salad! It's a family favorite, originally from my grandma's kitchen.

Ingredients

½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
¼ cup plain rice vinegar (not "seasoned")
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon finely grated, loosely packed, fresh ginger (Use a microplane zester to grate very finely.)
¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
⅛ teaspoon finely ground black pepper

Instructions

Combine all ingredients in a pint jar and shake vigorously to combine and emulsify. (If you like a perfectly smooth and blended dressing, use an immersion blender to quickly blitz everything together.)
Store in a pint jar in the refrigerator for up to 10 days. Shake vigorously before each use. If the oil solidifies in the fridge, place the jar on the counter 20-25 minutes prior to serving, then shake to combine.

Notes

I often add more ginger, because I REALLY like ginger - but I always feel like the amount listed pleases more people.

from my Grandma Renelt
