MISO CARROT SAUCE WITH GINGER (JAPANESE SALAD DRESSING)
Really nice dressing! One measure of a good home cook is the ability to make your own salad dressing. Or so says Mark Bittman in the food section of the New York Times. This is the orange dressing you sometimes see on your too-cold salad in Japanese restaurants. I made this tonight, and thought it was much better than any other I ever tried at a Japanese restaurant! I made this with half the corn oil, so if you'd like to try the original recipe you can increase amount to 1/4 cup. I did not decrease the sesame oil (but did use regular).

SOBA SALAD WITH MISO DRESSING
Superfast veggie dinner or side dish. Courtesy of Mark Bittman, the Minimalist, from the October 1 2009 NY Times. He's not sure whether to call this a warm salad or a room-temperature noodle dish. I love edamame beans, and buying them frozen is fine for this dish. Pick up a bag of pre-washed spinach for this too. Tossing the spinach with the warm noodles and veggies should wilt the spinach, or stir fry them together in a little water to wilt a bit more. Soba noodles are a staple of Japan. They have a slightly firm texture and nutty flavor.

Steps:
- In a shallow bowl, mix together 1/2 cup of sesame seeds, seasoning salt, white pepper, onion powder, wasabi powder, kosher salt and flour; set aside. In a separate bowl, mix together the eggs and milk.
- Dip tuna steaks in the egg mixture, then dredge in the flour mixture until well coated on both sides. Press on as many extra sesame seeds as possible, so it is well coated. Heat the vegetable oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Fry tuna steaks for 2 minutes per side, and immediately remove from heat. The inside of the fish should still be red.
- To make the soy miso dressing, mix together the miso soup mix and soy sauce. Heat in a small saucepan or microwave, and drizzle over steaks.

CREAMY AVOCADO-MISO DRESSING
Whip up this quick dressing when you want to use up any ripe or slightly overripe avocado that's too soft for slicing. The miso gives the creamy dressing a delicately sweet complexity, and the lemon and vinegar cut through the buttery avocado. Use this protein-rich dressing to generously coat your hearty green salad, warm grain bowl or vegetables charred on the grill.

CREAMY MISO DRESSING
A creamy, multipurpose miso dressing. Great on salads, vegetables, or whatever else your heart desires. The ingredients are more true to the Japanese style. Mirin gives the dressing a slightly sweeter, more complex taste, tofu gives the dressing a creamy texture, and the sesame oil adds a distinct Japanese flavor to the finish.

- Taste the miso paste before using it in a dressing. This will help you determine how much salt and acidity to add.
- Start with a small amount of miso paste and add more to taste. Miso paste can be quite salty, so it's important to use it sparingly.
- Use a variety of ingredients to create different flavor profiles. Common ingredients include rice vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, and scallions.
- Experiment with different ratios of ingredients to find a dressing that you like. There is no right or wrong way to make a miso dressing.
Conclusion:
Miso dressing is a versatile and flavorful dressing that can be used on a variety of dishes. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences. Whether you are using it on a salad, grilled vegetables, or tofu, miso dressing is sure to add a delicious umami flavor.
