I don’t care too much for carrots, but I love a good carrot ginger dressing on my salad when I go out for Hibachi. This is good stuff! It’s the perfect starter to any dish.

Asian Ginger Carrot Dressing Recipe
Well, I’ve been getting requests for this for a while now, so it was time! It’s hot in New York, so too cool off I wanted a simple crisp iceburg lettuce salad for lunch. I added some red cabbage and carrots for color and enjoyed every bite! You can serve this on mixed greens, add tomatoes and cucumbers or whatever you like!

Made this one tonight – AMAZING!!
Hi Gina, this dressing was awesome! I made it over the weekend & loved it, thanks again…Frank
Hi Gina, I was searching for a low calorie, healthy dressing & I'm so happy to have found this one! It looks awesome & can't wait to try it! Frank
Definitely a new favorite! I made this tonight and it was wonderful!
I/ve been trying to duplicate the dressing at our local Hibachi place for my husband to work with WW. This is it!!! LOVE IT!!! can you tell me how long you can keep it in the fridge?
How long will this keep in the fridge?
Can u freeze it?
What kind of rice vinegar do you use, seasoned?, no salt/sugar?
I made this tonight on a whim. I used soaked sun dried tomatoes because I didnt have tomato paste. It turned out yummy!!
Can one replace rice vinegar with say apple cider?
I tried this last night, it was amazing! Better than I expected!
I made this dressing tonight and all I can say is FINALLY.. an authentic version of the hibachi restaurant dressing! It is SO yummy.
I used regular (untoasted) sesame oil and was a little afraid at first because it is SO aromatic and strong that I thought it might overpower the dressing. After I pureed it altogether, I was pleasantly surprised that it was just PERFECT!
Thanks so much, Gina!
This dressing was absolutely delicious! Everyone love it! I would double the recipe next time, as it didn't seem to make much.
Can't wait to try this this week. I can see it now – mixed green salad with Ginger-Carrot dressing and grilled chicken with Ginger-Carrot marinade . . . Top salad with chicken. Eat.
Gina, Did you use roasted sesame oil or the lighter kind?
Gina,
Is there another use for this dressing other than on salad ingredients. I made way too much and was wondering if you had other uses for it?
Thanks
Kim
This is wonderful! I asked the chef at my local place what was in it, and he said if he told me, then he would have to kill me! Lol! Thank you!!
So AMAZING!
YUM!! I always wondered what they put in it!
I can't say I've heard of this dressing, but it sounds healthy and intriguing.
