How to Make Shogun Japanese Salad Dressing

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, mirin, sugar, and ginger until the sugar is fully dissolved.
  2. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more sugar for sweetness, rice vinegar for tang, or soy sauce for saltiness.
  3. For best results, cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. This step is highly recommended!
  4. Serve over a crisp salad of your choice. We recommend a mix of iceberg and butter lettuce with julienned carrots for a refreshing crunch.
