BEST ORIENTAL SALAD DRESSING

This is great on an Asian inspired salad - think Pei Wei, or PF Changs. I've included several substitutions which have worked for me as well, since I never seem to have ALL the ingredients on hand at the same time...

Time 15m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1/2 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 tablespoons rice vinegar (whatever you have) or 2 tablespoons white vinegar (whatever you have)
1 tablespoon tomato paste or 1 1/2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste)
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced or 1/2 teaspoon dry ginger powder
1/2 cup celery, sliced or 1 teaspoon celery salt
1/4 cup green onion, chopped (white onion will work, too)

Steps:

Combine all ingredients in blender and blend at medium speed 3-4 seconds until celery is finely grated.
This can be served immediately, but the flavors will blend better if refrigerated about an hour before serving.
The fewer substitutions you have to make, the better, of course, but I've used each of these at one time or other, and still been happy with the results. Send me any other substitutions you've tried!

Time 35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
¼ cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 (8 ounce) package dried rice noodles
1 head iceberg lettuce - rinsed, dried, and chopped
4 boneless chicken breast halves, cooked and shredded
3 green onions, chopped
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted

Steps:

Prepare the dressing 30 minutes ahead of time by combining the brown sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, salad oil, and rice vinegar in a salad dressing carafe.
To prepare the Chinese rice noodles, heat a skillet with a few tablespoons of oil and break off a little bit of the noodles and add them to the skillet and fry them. They will puff up in the skillet, so only add a few at a time. As they begin to puff up, remove and drain them on paper towels. Be sure to cook long enough as the under cooked noodles will be like eating needles. Once cooked, add them to the salad mixture.
In a large bowl combine the iceberg lettuce, cooked and shredded chicken, green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Let chill about 10 minutes, and just before serving add the cooked rice noodles. Serve in salad bowls and offer the dressing in a pourable container so your family can add as much dressing as they want. You can also pour the dressing over the top of the salad, toss, and serve immediately.

Tips:

Always use fresh, high-quality ingredients.
Use a variety of flavors and textures in your salad.
Make sure your dressing is well-balanced, with a good ratio of sweet, sour, and salty flavors.
Experiment with different types of salad dressings, such as vinaigrette, mayonnaise-based, or creamy dressings.
If you're making a vinaigrette, let it sit for at least 30 minutes before using so the flavors can meld.
When dressing your salad, start with a small amount of dressing and then add more as needed.
Toss your salad gently so that the dressing coats evenly.
Serve your salad immediately or chill it for later.
