The reviewer gave this recipe 5 stars. This recipe averages a 3.96 star rating.

This recipe works best if you follow the ingredients. I did have to change one thing I didn't have soy sauce, some how it is MIA. I ended up using Tamari witch is the same thing as soy sauce just more consternated. I recommend you to use a little less but I used the same amount as the soy sauce and it was FAB! I also add more ginger because I love the taste. This was real close to the ginger dressing at the local Japanese restaurant in my city. If you love giger you will love this dressing. Also in someones review they mentioned Benihana Recipes was better I checked it out and its the same recipe. Someone had a moment I think.

It tastes good but I would reduce the amount of oil next time I make it. It comes out a bit too greasy for my taste.

Adored it, all of us. Great on romaine with some nuts - amazing. Very dietetic, since you don't need much of it, it's so strong. I used an immersion blender so skipped all the chopping, and it worked beautifully. Added some rice vinegar as per the recommendations, used regular mustard since I didn't have dijon in the house- it was fantastic, making it again now! Dumped some of it on frozen peas and baked it with a little water - also fantastic.

I loved this recipe! The lemon juice was amazing! The only thing I added/changed was added 4 teaspoons of sugar. Also, I used canola oil instead of olive. I used Tamari instead of soy sauce for richer flavor.

I really enjoyed this recipe!! It had great flavor and it tasted a lot like the Japanese restaurants I've been to! I used the sesame oil (oly about1/4 cup), 2 tblsp rice vinegar and just 2 garlic cloves and it was wonderful!! It had a more liquid consistancy but it could be due to me not being the most skilled mincer. I used the extra garlic and ginger along with some dijon, honey and rice vinegar and put it on some chicken and cooked it on a hot pan hibachi style and it was the BEST chicken I have ever made!!

As others have stated before, the dressing is very bitter. I would suggest adding the sugar to bring about a more sweet taste..also I added 2 dollops of mayo, this made the dressing more creamier! Overall, it had the taste of the traditional ginger dressing you would find at the Japanese Houses!!

First of all, thank you for the recipe. After I followed the instruction, the dressing came out to be really bitter (I might have been putting more ginger than it is called for.... not sure tho), so I put whole can of mandarin orange in a light syrup (15 oz) not the liquid, just the orange segments & 3/4 fuji apple (probably little bigger than regular american apple). Then it was perfect (at least for my taste)! It was citruy sweet and I can still taste ginger simultaneously! Hope this helps!

Joy and I absolutely love this style of dressing, I find it best served with a sweetened fried chip as well as a salad. A nice ripe tomato slice helps bring out the flavor. When I made this for Joy, her eyes lit up with excitement, I couldn't have been happier with this kind of flavor in a oriental dressing.

Thanks to all the other reviewers I put together an amazing dressing. Thank you all and Paula, thank you! This is what I did: 1/2 tsp Mongolian Fire Whack Oil, 3/4 c olive oil, 1/4 c sesame oil, 1/4 c fresh lemon juice, 1/3c fresh lime juice, 1 tbsp fresh minced garlic, 2 tbsp fresh minced ginger, 1/2 c fresh minced carrot, 1 tsp Dijon mustard, 1/4 c soy sauce, 1 tbsp honey, 1 tsp sugar. It took a lot longer to prepare because of all the mincing of the carrots and ginger, but it was SO WORTH IT!!!!!! I have already added this recipe to my box of favorites. THANKS TO ALL!!!

Fabulous recipe! So easy and so good! Added bonus is the versatility. This can be used on different salads to accompany different meals...not just with steak. Pairs beautifully with Asian style pork ribs too. This one's a keeper! Thanks!

Easy, simple, yummy. I made it to go on a green salad aside Sushi Rolls. Then I served the rest at a small dinner party last night and was asked for the recipe. Hooray!
