ASIAN SALAD DRESSING
This Asian salad dressing is delicious in a salad or on stir-fried vegetables. It will last, sealed in a Mason jar, in the refrigerator for about six weeks. A tablespoon of ground ginger may be used in place of fresh. -Judy Batson, Tampa, Florida

Tips:
- Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give your salad the best flavor and texture. If possible, buy organic vegetables to avoid pesticides and herbicides.
- Cut your vegetables into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly and make your salad more visually appealing.
- Don't overcrowd your salad: A crowded salad will be difficult to toss and will not cook evenly. If you are making a large salad, use a large bowl or platter.
- Use a light dressing: A heavy dressing will overwhelm the flavors of the vegetables. A simple vinaigrette or Asian dressing is a good option.
- Toss your salad gently: Over-tossing your salad will bruise the vegetables and make them less attractive.
- Serve your salad immediately: Salads are best when served fresh. If you need to make your salad ahead of time, store it in the refrigerator and toss it with the dressing just before serving.
Conclusion:
Vegetable salads are a healthy and delicious way to get your daily dose of fruits and vegetables. They are also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. With a little planning, you can make a vegetable salad that is both tasty and nutritious.
