How to Make Asian Vinaigrette Salad Dressing

  1. In a small bowl or food processor, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, sesame oil, and optional wasabi powder until the sugar dissolves.
  2. If using a bowl, slowly drizzle in the peanut oil while whisking constantly until the dressing emulsifies (thickens and becomes creamy).
  3. If using a food processor, with the motor running, slowly drizzle in the peanut oil until emulsified.
  4. Stir in the toasted sesame seeds and sliced scallions.
  5. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
