Simplest Asian Dressing

This simple Asian dressing is a versatile addition to any kitchen, offering a bright and savoury flavour profile without the high sugar content often found in shop-bought alternatives. By combining the umami richness of soy sauce with the subtle tang of rice vinegar and nutty sesame oil, it creates a balanced vinaigrette that enhances both crisp green salads and warm grain bowls. It is an excellent choice for those seeking a lighter, homemade touch for their weekday meals.

As a low-sugar recipe, this dressing relies on high-quality cupboard staples to deliver maximum impact with minimal effort. It takes only minutes to whisk together and can be prepared in advance, making it ideal for busy schedules or healthy meal prepping. Drizzle it over steamed broccoli, use it as a dip for spring rolls, or toss it through a cold noodle salad for a quick and nutritious lunch.
