    We love everything about this Sesame Ginger Dressing. It’s slightly sweet, salty, tangy. Not only does it make a fantastic dressing for salads, but we love using it as a marinade or sauce. Our recipe takes minutes to whip up and is literally bursting with flavor. It’s one of our favorite dressings ever, and promise you’ll fall in love too!

    How to Make Sesame Ginger Dressing

    Ingredients for sesame ginger dressing ingredients.
    1. Combine all dressing ingredients into a liquid measuring cup.

    Storing Instructions

    Our sesame ginger dressing can be stored in an airtight bottle or airtight jar, in the refrigerator, for up to 2 weeks.

    We don’t recommend storing the dressing for over 2 weeks. This ensures best quality since we use fresh ingredients such as ginger and garlic.

    Other Uses for Our Sesame Ginger Dressing

    We love that our dressing doubles as a marinade and triples as a sauce!

    Marinade

    Use it to marinade proteins such as:

    • chicken (for up to 48 hours for dark meat and up to 24 hours for white meat)
    • fish (for up to 12 hours)
    • shrimp (for up to 12 hours).

    Sauce

    Our dressing can also be used as a fantastic sauce for stir-fry recipes! Just drizzle some into the end of stir-frying lean proteins and vegetables for a tangy flavor kick everyone will love!

      Is rice wine vinegar the same as normal rice vinegar? I noticed in the picture the rice wine vinegar dark, but rice vinegar is light.

      Can you provide a link to your go to rice wine vinegar?

        Hi Hannah! Rice wine vinegar and rice vinegar are the same thing (just depends on how it’s marketed by the brand). While rice wine vinegar can differ in shades depending on the company, our photo is actually mislabeled (!!) and the sesame oil/rice wine vinegar labels should be swapped! We’re working to update that. Thanks for bringing it to our attention!
