This recipe is our version of classic salad dressing that's super popular in Japan, and for good reason. You can put it on a piece of cardboard, and it'll be delicious. In Japan, often it's served simply on shredded cabbage.

Ingredient

3 Tbsp. Parmesan Herb Salad Shake

3 Tbsp. Japanese Kewpie mayonnaise, (or any mayo)

3 Tbsp. olive oil, (not extra virgin)

1 ½ Tbsp. Japanese soy sauce, (or any soy sauce)

1 Tbsp. rice vinegar

2 tsp. mirin, (optional)

2-3 tsp. honey or brown sugar

½ tsp. toasted sesame oil

Instruction

1

Add all ingredients to bowl and whisk to mix well and make sure the honey is completely dissolved.

2

Taste and adjust seasoning to your taste. You can also increase the mayo if you want something thicker and richer.

Note: If it's the first time you're making it I recommend tasting it with some actual salad leaves rather than tasting it straight up to get a more accurate idea of where you're at.
