Back to TopDelicious! I was on a Daniel fast and could not consume table sugar or alternative sweeteners, so I added about 20 raisins for sweetness, and they added the perfect amt of sweetness. I microwaved them with about a teaspoon of water for 20 secs first to plump them up, but not sure this was even necessary. Dressing was amazing before and after raisins but I definitely loved it even more with the raisins.

This is a fabulous recipe. I did add a tablespoon of miso, and it took the dressing over the top. I will use it on everything.

Love it! I substitute red onion for a kick and instead of shallots.

What is "seasoned" rice vinegar?

The proportions are perfect. I offer one suggestion. I microwaved the carrots for about 4 minutes, and just put everything right in the blender, adding a little bit of water at the end to get the desired consistency. The finished product is incredibly creamy without being dairy, and you don't have to clean your food processor.

Very close to original from my memory. I have a hunch there should be 1/4C tahini in there for smoother, creamier taste, then you'd need a little water.

Used the blender for the whole thing. Added the water last and only needed about half to get the right consistency. I agree with a previous reviewer a touch of honey rounds it out, as does a small clove of garlic.

I add about a cup of chopped carrots since it's difficult for me to measure a 1/2 a pound. I also only add a 1/4 cup of vegetable oil because I find 1/2 cup to be way too runny. Otherwise, very delicious dressing. I highly recommend trying it on an Asian salad mix.

I have been making this for years. It is terrific with a crunchy lettuce and any Asian protein like a teriyaki chicken or shrimp.

oh my god it only took me 15 years but i finally found the recipe that tastes just like DOJO's carrot ginger dressing! i did not modify anything except i used my blender for the whole process instead of using a food processor & switching to a blender. this recipe is simple & amazing! i am buying mason jars today to make them for my friends who miss DOJO's. seriously people make this & eat it up! YUM!

I thought it was killer, but needed a touch of sweetness to round it out. Used a Tbsp of honey. Perfect!

This is almost perfect! I personally like more soy sauce. I added about 1/4 cup, and also increased the rice vinegar to 1/4 cup. Added a dash of sriracha sauce (hot chili sauce -- any hot sauce will substitute). I didn't have any sesame oil, so I substituted about 2T of roasted sesame seeds. That worked fine but I think the dark sesame oil would be better. Also, for expediency, I put all ingredients minus the water into the food processor and blended it up. I like it a bit course, like in a Japanese restaurant. No water was needed for me. Excellent! Thank you!!
