Note
For a sweeter profile, add 1/2 teaspoon of sugar or agave nectar. A pinch of oregano can also add an interesting herbal note.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Shake well before each use as ingredients may separate.
If you prefer a milder ginger flavor, reduce the amount to 1/2 inch. For extra heat, add a small dash of chili flakes or fresh chili.
This dressing works beautifully as a marinade for tofu, chicken, or vegetables. Let the protein marinate for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
