Creamy Ginger Miso Dressing
A creamy, Oriental-style light miso and ginger-based dressing to lively up salads, grain dishes or steamed vegetables
This is delicious with a salad to accompany Chinese, Japanese or Thai style food – try it with lightly steamed mange tout & baby sweetcorn, raw thinly sliced red pepper and slivers of carrot.
