Note

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Shake well before each use as separation may occur.

For a vegetarian version, substitute the beef bouillon with a no-fat vegetable bouillon or stock.

Freshly grated ginger provides the best flavor. If using ground ginger, reduce the amount to 1/4 teaspoon as it is more concentrated.

This dressing works exceptionally well on Asian-inspired salads with shredded cabbage, carrots, and edamame.
